We oppose the programs because it is not an anti-bullying program:
• It exposes children to sexually explicit adult content;
• It exposes children to queer and gender theory;
• It encourages crossdressing and gender transitioning even without parental consent;
• It teaches children that ‘STIs [Sexually Transmissible Infections] are no big deal’, without advising long term physical and mental outcomes;
• It promotes risky sexual behaviours and multiple-sexual partners as ‘normal’ and even aspirational; and
• It removes parental rights to determine the best outcomes for their child.
We respectfully request that:
• a genuine anti-bullying program that is more inclusive and representative of the wider school community is developed; and
• a body with professional input and representative parental involvement is responsible for reviewing and evaluating all sexuality education in Australian schools
