No. One does no promote abnormal sexual preferences. Acceptance & tolerance is good to teach, as with some errors of attraction such as homosexuality, no one is being abused, and all are willing participants; but one never promotes mental error. In any case I'm unsure one can promote it in any real sense. One either has the affliction active or not.
"positive portrayal" - that's what advertisers do for Mars Bars etc. Yes it is promotion and in should be prevented. That is what section 28 was for, to stop this sort of thing. Why does any sort of seual tendency need "positive portrayal" - gawd help us this lot won't be happy until they have a full set of straight/gay/tansgender/cross dressing kids. Teachers are supposed to concentrate on education F\F\S not tinkering about with sexuality.
It's that word again - 'promote'.
It's too woolly and ill-defined within the context of education, and we've encountered problems when it was used in Clause 28.
Should it be mandatory for schools to educate children about both gay and straight relationships within the framework of sex education lessons?
Yes, I can't see any negatives associated with that proposal.
Schools are not going to be forced to promote gay relationships.
That's merely twisting words to scare parents, because in the minds of many, the word 'promotion' is akin to 'encouragement'.
