UNESCO report recommends teaching children about sex from birth.

The UN has put out a report encouraging that children be taught about sexuality from birth, supposedly in order to combat the AIDS epidemic.

The report was authored mostly by the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS), an arm of the Kinsey Institute.

UNESCO Report: Sex Guidelines for Kids From Birth

According to recent guidelines set by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in a report entitled, “International Technical Guidance on Sexuality Education,” “It is never too early to start talking to children about sexual matters.”

According to the report, “Preparing young children and young people for the transition to adulthood has always been one of humanity’s great challenges, with human sexuality and relationships at its core. Today, in a world with AIDS, how we meet this challenge is our most important opportunity in breaking the trajectory of the epidemic.”

The report goes on to say that “inadequate preparation leaves [children] vulnerable,” and encourages parents to teach their children about sexuality from birth.

Partnering with the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS), an arm of the Kinsey Institute, UNESCO has compromised any reputation it may have had as an independent and reputable organization.

The Kinsey Institute was founded by sexologist Alfred Kinsey, who studied human sexual behaviors in the 1940s and 1950s. Kinsey has been accused of promoting pedophilia, citing his research that documented adults helping to bring children and infants to orgasm. The Kinsey Institute created SIECUS in 1964, an organization that received $1.6 million in federal funding between 2002 and 2009.

UNESCO’s newest guidelines introduced in September of last year faced heavy opposition as they suggested promoting legal abortion and masturbation for children as young as five.

As a result of the fierce backlash, some of the more explicit language found in the guidelines has been changed, but the majority of the controversial suggestions remain, including a sex-education curriculum for children from birth to age five. One such suggestion encourages parents to buy anatomically-correct dolls and inform their children of diverse sexual relationships.

Regarding masturbation, the curriculum writes, “If a child is touching his or her genitals in private, ignore the behavior.”

Likewise, the curriculum encourages parents to be supportive and open-minded to gender identity and sexual orientation, and discourages them from enforcing traditional gender identities: “Confusion about these issues and fear of homosexuality (homophobia) has caused many parents and other adults to limit how girls and boys express themselves.”

One curriculum asks parents to refrain from teaching children about morality, as there are no right and wrong values, while another model curriculum asks parents to address contradictions in “religious approaches and rights based approaches.”

Perhaps the most disturbing of the curricula asks parents to foster early sexual development by encouraging children to “experience genital pleasure” from birth until age 2 and by age 3, to encourage “sex play.”

The New American


Something tells me that encouraging children to begin experimenting in sexuality right from birth isn't going to do much to reduce the incidence of AIDS in the world. If anything, if the suggestions in this report are implemented, you can look forward to AIDS becoming more of a problem and AIDS sufferers becoming younger and younger.

This could also make the children an easier target for pedophiles as this comment on the article points out:

The earlier we "prepare" children sexually, the more vulnerable we make children to child predators. After all we have "prepared" them to see sex as normal and natural, which in turn may cause kids to see inappropriate advances by adults as normal and natural. This will give the pedophiles a free ticket.

Does the UN actually do any good inn the world or is it just an organization designed to combat traditional family values while giving little countries a forum to beat up on the US?
