Should there be same sex education? Upfront magazine

Same Sex Education                                                                    Skyla Lowe 

Same sex education is beginning to occur around the world and is making kids very stereotypical today.

            I do not agree that same sex education is good for all children because some kids will be ready for the future and some will not be.

Children get stereotyped and schools reinforce it. I say this because when boys/girls come around the opposite sexes they feel then need to “dumb them selves down” to not make the opposite sex feel bad. This example shows how stereotyped the girls and boys can be from being with the same sex for so long.

In the article “single sex schools have negative impact on kids, says study” it states that students who are in same sex education began to get their occupational aspirations cut limited because of the opposite sex. This happens because kids don’t get enough time with the opposite sex a lot. The authors point is to show how much kids will only want to be with the same sex. I also know this because they grow up in same sex classes, which then gives most kid the option to not want to be with the opposite sex.

Children will then not want to play with the opposite sex or be around the opposite sex for to long.  It says “girls will only play with dolls and boys will only play with trucks”.  This supports my statement because it shows how much kids only want to be with the same sex after growing up that way ; in that environment. I also say this because the opposite sex will feel as if they were to be doing wrong if they played with the opposite sexes toys.

My point is same sex education does not benefit everyone for the future ahead of them in many ways. It affects how children feel when being with the opposite gender compared to kids who are in mixed gender classes (co-ed) . I feel as if same sex education benefits some kids and does not help others for the life that is ahead of them. Co-ed!
