'Out' The closeted teaching of Homosexuality
Lewis Clarke
Popularity: this is the 25th most popular campaignAs a student coming out of compulsory education, I have experienced the closeted teaching of homosexuality. Homosexuality isn't talked about in the classroom, only used as a weapon of bullying by other peers. As a straight man I have noticed that the educational system doesn't signify the diverse personalities that build my generation. Therefore, my campaign would seek out to 'out' the teaching of homosexuality within the classroom. For example, teaching the arguments of the biological approach to homosexuality and the psychological approach to homosexual. In addition, I feel that although this teaches homosexuality; it’ll also contribute to the confidence to out themselves, understanding that others around them won’t be prejudice against them because they those who may have been – will be taught about homosexuality; and won’t be blinded because they won’t have been taught about homosexuality.
