Closed Teach LGBTQ sexual education in schools and about other sexuality's.

Closed on

Within schools teaching LGBTQ sexual education is not on the curriculum, leaving those who are homosexual without the correct education that they need to have healthy and positive sexual experiences, with many contracting diseases. The spectrum of sexuality's are also left open for stereotyping.

The GLSEN 2013 National School Climate Survey found that fewer than five percent of LGBT students had health classes that included positive representations of LGBTQ topics.
