Sexualities

A joke on IRC turns serious:
Dec 16 14:51:37 whats up PetardGA
Dec 16 14:56:10 not much
Dec 16 14:56:36
about to start outlining my adult ed session for church next Sunday
Dec 16 14:57:03
and also for the next session in late January I guess:)
Dec 16 15:02:28 its missing a word PetardGA Adult Sex Ed section 😉

Dec 16 15:02:40 bloody unlikely
Dec 16 15:02:53
tho some of it may come up later in the spring
Dec 16 15:04:20 hehe
Dec 16 15:04:32
yeah Sex Ed and church don’t work well together
Dec 16 15:05:49 lol
Dec 16 15:06:03
if adults need sex ed, they have problems
Dec 16 15:11:17 oh i think they need to know more about sexuality in general
Dec 16 15:11:21
not just how to
Dec 16 15:11:36
they need to learn how to reflect on what God has given
Dec 16 15:11:45
and on the varieties of sexualities
Dec 16 15:11:54
hetero, homo, whatever
Dec 16 15:12:01
and the varieties of genders
Dec 16 15:14:15
otherwise we will be stuck in this heteronormative patriarchal rut for ever

I suspect such a subject would find serious resistance and not just in church. The interesting question is, given that resistance, what is it that such a discussion would violate.
