Sex Ed Program in Hawaii Public Schools Teaches 11-Y-Os That the Anus Is a Genital and Gay Sex, Promiscuity Are Normal, Says Lawmaker

Hawaii Republican state Rep. Bob McDermott is seeking to revise a taxpayer-funded public school sex education program that teaches 11-year-old children that the anus is a genital, and gay sex and having multiple sex partners are normal.

In his recently published review of the "Pono Choices" sex education program that is being taught in "at least 12 Hawaii public schools," McDermott argued that the program is being irresponsibly taught to "impressionable children" and said its inaccuracies need to be revised.

"Pono Choices, intended for young impressionable children, is clearly not age appropriate; it is inconsistent with state statues and policies. Any talk of anal sex — which the curriculum does frequently — is instinctively repulsive for pre-pubescent children," noted McDermott in the executive summary of his report.

"Additionally, calling the anus a genital—as Pono Choices does—is just plain medically wrong. Redefining the term to suit the authors' preferences is inappropriate. The curriculum's definition of oral sex is also not consistent with the definition commonly found in medical literature," he argued.

Hawaiian Baptists are focusing on sharing Christianity with the local community since Hawaii became the 15th state to legalize gay marriage. At the same time, a new sex education curriculum teaching the anatomy of gay sex for children between the ages of 11 and 13 is being introduced which is prompting the Waikiki Baptist Church to share faith.

Andrew Large, pastor of Waikiki Baptist Church, said that he believes his congregation should “be engaged in the civil issues and [let] our community know exactly what Christianity is all about, what the Bible has to say.”

The sex ed course called Pono Choices and is currently being taught in 12 Hawaiian schools. “Pono” refers to righteousness, a Hawaiian word also used in the state motto, “The life of the land is perpetuated in righteousness.”
