Moral education belongs in the home and I have educated both of my sons on this long ago. It is obviously not normal if you look at the all of the data and how it came to be considered no longer a mental health issue and simply look at the statistics associated with the behavior of homosexuality and that pretty much makes a case not to consider it normal. Just the associated mental and physical health issues................seriously, normal and natural, not! From a physical standpoint? No. From a moral standpoint? No. Leave the kids alone and recruit elsewhere!!!

It's part of physical health though. Schools started teaching about it because so many parents were not. There is no room for "period!" when it comes to an ingorant population.

I was taught sex ed in 6th grade at 11 years old, and that was 17 years ago. Not sure why you think it isn't taught until high school.

This is the type of attitude that leads to gay kids running away from home or committing suicide.

Did the song have an impact on "experimentation"?
Lesbianism and Bi-sexuality increased after it became popular?

Maybe the song had an impact on "affirmation" and it empowered lesbian/bisexual girls to come out of their closets?

The issue is not whether or not we should have sex education. It used to be part of physical education. Of course it has a place in schools.

THE ISSUE and it is huge, is that just as every other area of society has degenerated *(been engineered to demoralize a populace so that we won't stand and fight for anything that's right, and be weak, selfish and pleasure seeking because the Russians knew and taught that a demoralized populace could be defeated without firing a shot) and along with it, what we consider "sex Education" has also degenerated.

Every society has a minority of people who are only attracted to the same sex. It has always existed. It's a normal part of humanity. To claim otherwise is to declare your ignorance.
