Much of the right wing rhetoric around the various anti-gay, anti-trans, anti-drag, and school-book issues refers to the “sexualization” of children.
This is an incorrect use of the term. To sexualize something is to make it an object of sexual arousal. A fetish, if you will. A foot fetishist sexualizes feet.
So none of these things sexualize children, the only people who sexualize children are pedophiles.
Rather, what these people are apparently worried about is “exposing children to sexual subjects for which they are (presumably) not prepared.”
That in itself is rather silly, as we know that the whole area of sex education is pretty much taboo to these people… Despite the manifest benefits of same.
Researchers have found that cultures that allow free sexual “exploration” among young kids have far less incidence of paraphilia than those that try to hide everything.
