I finished Vision of the Annointed by Thomas Sowell last month, and the book (written in 95) was his takedown of academic elites on many topics. One area he discussed was sex ed and questioned the obsession with discussing sex with children as young as kindergarten or discussing homosexuality with kids. Most of my life I’ve lived in Oklahoma or Texas in pretty red/Christian areas so my sex ed in 5th grade was slightly more than “boys have a penis and girls have a vagina”. I didn’t realize the heavy push for that was going on in the 90s but I guess in more left wing areas it was, plus he has been in academic circles for decades so o guess he has seen a lot of wild theories pushed.

One of my favorite lines from the book is “there is plenty of talk about the haves and have nots, but very little discussion about the doers and do nots”
