"France, the government has announced plans to include educating primary school children about homosexual relationships and same-sex parenting.
French Minister for Women’s Rights Najat Vallaud-Belkacem on Wednesday unveiled wide-ranging plans to fight homophobia in France that include teaching primary school children about issues affecting LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) people.
The proposals follow consultations with scores of LGBT associations and are part of a wider scheme to make France a “world leader in the fight against homophobia”.
Labaquere told FRANCE 24 that the government’s ambition to write awareness of gay and single-parenting issues into the school curriculum – for children as young as six or seven – is essential to nip homophobia in the bud.
Changes to the curriculum, he insisted, would not involve active promotion of homosexuality or explanations of “what people do in private”, but would help explain “the importance of relationships and of love.”
Vallaud-Belkacem also said an inter-ministerial group was working on ways to clamp down on (mainly religious) organisations in France who claim they can “cure” people of homosexuality.
The announcement comes as the government continues to press ahead with a bill to legalise same-sex marriage, which is due to be voted in January 2013." France24
