This morning, November 19th, 2013, we addressed the Parents’ Guide, Children’s Sexual Behaviours published by the Prince Edward Island Government. Charles McVety, my sparring partner on the Culture War segment of the John Oakley Show, was furious that the pamphlet identified some behaviours as normal arguing that allowing them would lead to sexualization of children at an inappropriate age. I’m more concerned about the fashionably “torn” off the shoulder sweatshirts for toddlers that I saw in Loblaws the other day than I am children exploring their own genitalia in the ways the pamphlet identifies as of no concern. Have a listen. What are your thoughts?
