The state wants to ban all mention of gender and sexuality in schools because they don’t think children need to learn about that (even though that’s real life). Sexual and gender issues are a necessary part of the AP psych curriculum, therefore, teachers cannot teach the complete course without facing legal ramifications. The state has failed to clarify this so nothing has been resolved.

It really is infantilizing kids of high school age to make them deliberately ignorant (and therefore reject) people who have different preferences. It’s horrific and is doomed to fail. The real world has a way of catching up.

This looks new. Needs a lot of work. I looked at the earthquake lights and ball lightning pages and I would have to spend days updating it. That’s the trouble with unknown things, there is a lot that has been tried already that might be relevant towards an explanation but we’re not there yet.

well, yeah. That’s what the article says. It’s always good to read the link.

Barbie Hoax Targets Mattel and Fools Some News Outlets (www.nytimes.com)

The false campaign by environmental activists claimed that the toy giant was launching a new line of decomposable Barbies and would stop using plastic by 2030. Some news outlets, including People, The Washington Times and Dow Jones Newswires, fell for the fake campaign, publishing articles on the new dolls.

Actually 1000 is a good number for a sample. It narrows your margin of error to around 3%. If it is truly randomly selected people. But that’s the hard part. How you sample skews the results. For example, sampling via land line random phone numbers means you get much older people. Sampling on college campuses means younger, etc.

Good to know! That also makes sense.

(It would be helpful if you could take off the URL link from the entire paragraph, though. It’s hard to read this way.)
