ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Maryland public schools could see an addition to sex-education classes if some state lawmakers get their way: They want students to be taught the concept of “affirmative consent.”
That’s the idea that two people should be in clear, voluntary agreement before engaging in a sex act.
Del. Maricé Morales, D-Montgomery County, is one of the sponsors of a bill that went before Maryland’s House Ways and Means Committee Tuesday. The bill would allow affirmative consent to be added to seventh and 10th grade sex-ed courses in Montgomery County Public Schools.
She said another bill is in the works that would take the concept to all Maryland public schools and allow other districts the freedom to decide in which grade the concept would be introduced.

They will want to be sure to do this in spanish as well, so that everybody understands.
JUST TEACH READING WRITING & Math. This other stuff is what's wrong with kids today.
What a pile of dog crap. Girls want it just as much as guys, they just play hard to get to keep rumors down that they are easy.
Will there be a standard form contract that both must sign off on in duplicate?
