A church school in the U.K. has been forced to apologize when a sex-education lesson got all f'd up.
A teacher at St. Laurence School in Bradford-on-Avon invited a class of 11-year-olds to shout out all the obscene words they knew, while she wrote them on the blackboard and then explained their meaning.
Of course, parents are up in arms and think the lesson was a total disgrace. And they're especially mad they weren't asked for their consent (but they would have said "no"!).
From the Daily Mail:
The words, which included some of the most offensive words in the English
language, covered crude terms for male and female genitalia as well as
derogatory terms for women.
Funny, the words weren't coming from the teacher, but the students. I wonder what they thought of their boys and girls behaving like little Gordon Ramseys, so wise in the ways of the world and naughty, naughty words.
Personally, I think this is a great approach. What better way to diminish the power of the "c" word or make an f-bomb less explosive than having some fuddy-duddy teacher at the front not react, write it on the board and then explain the term to death?
