'Sex Ed Opponents Won't Appeal Pro-Gay Court Decision'

From The Advocate.

A group that opposes the new sex education curriculum in Montgomery County, Md., has decided not to oppose a ruling in favor of the school system, The Washington Post reported Friday.

After a six-year debate, the school system adopted an updated sex education program last summer that described homosexuality as innate. Citizens for a Responsible Curriculum, a local nonprofit organization, objected to the teachings, arguing they violated a state law requiring that lessons be factual. The group also attacked mentions of anal intercourse, claiming they went against a law prohibiting teaching of “erotic techniques.” . . .
