Focus On The Family Accuses GLSEN Of Promoting ‘Sexual Anarchy’ And ‘Sexual Chaos’ | Focus on the Family’s Candi Cushman is again lashing out at GLSEN for its efforts to include LGBT visibility in schools, accusing the group of promoting “sexual anarchy” and “sexual chaos.” She cites a resource known as the GLSEN Lunchbox, which GLSEN has already phased out and is no longer distributing, and highlights tools within it without giving them the proper context. For example, Cushman shows a teacher training resource about transgender identities, immediately deeming it offensive without offering the context of the Kate Bornstein book the activity was based upon. As always, Focus on the Family wants young LGBT people to feel invisible and receive no validation that it might be normal to feel different about their gender or sexual orientation. Watch the clip:
