What do a six-year old boy and former San Diego Mayor Bob “Filthy” Filner have in common?
Permanent records of sexual harassment.
His mother says it’s a crush and the two children like each other. But the school is calling it something else; sexual harassment.
First grader, Hunter Yelton, told us he loves science and phys-ed. Also…that he has a crush on a girl at school, who likes him back.
It may sound innocent enough…but at six years old Hunter now has ‘sexual harassment’ on his school record.
“It was during class yeah. We were doing reading group and I leaned over and kissed her on the hand. That’s what happened,” said Hunter Yelton.
Six year old Hunter was at home on Monday instead of at school.
“They sent me to the office, fair and square. I did something wrong and I feel sorry,” he said.
“She was fine with it, they are ‘boyfriend and girlfriend’. The other children saw it and went to the music teacher. That was the day I had the meeting with the principal, where she first said ‘sexual harassment’. This is taking it to an extreme that doesn’t need to be met with a six year old. Now my son is asking questions… what is sex mommy? That should not ever be said, sex. Not in a sentence with a six year old,” said Hunters’ mom, Jennifer Saunders.
Both hunter and his mom, Jennifer, admit he’s had some trouble at school in the past. Hunter has been suspended for rough-housing, and for kissing the same girl on the cheek.
Who benefits and who loses when the consensual, affectionate behavior of this little boy is conflated with the forced assaults on adult women perpetrated by Bob Filner?
At six years old, I guarantee you that most of the little girls at Hunter’s school have a best (same-sex) friend they hug or hold hands with. Yet it is this little first grader who is now officially labeled what the Left-gender-feminists consider all males —
Potential rapist.
This boy wasn’t involved in anything dangerous, illegal or even immoral. He didn’t even “steal” the kiss. But hey, he’s a BOY and being the kisser makes the female kissee a “victim.” I note in the article that the boy has been in trouble for “rough-housing”. Just what the heck do these Soviet drones think little boys do when acting naturally?
Rhetorical question, that. Instead of channeling the energy, the Leftist educrats are determined to pathologize and punish it.
And just like the imaginary arrow shooting I posted about earlier, what scares me to death is that the school came down like a ton of bricks because other kids saw this and tattled to the teacher.
Boys are not only being isolated for their non-girl behavior, but even their relationships with best friends of the same sex are now being portrayed as latent homosexuality.
The family of Norman Rockwell is waging a fierce campaign against a new biography of him, bristling at the book’s suggestions that Rockwell, artist of small-town Americana, could have been secretly gay or harbored pedophilic impulses. […]
In the book, Ms. Solomon raises the question of whether Rockwell was gay, writing that he “demonstrated an intense need for emotional and physical closeness with men,” and that his marriages may have been a strategy for “controlling his homoerotic desires.” She described a camping trip in Quebec that Rockwell took with his male assistant, during which the men swam and played cards together late into the night, and Rockwell noted in his diaries that his assistant looked “most fetching in his long flannels.” There is nothing, Ms. Solomon cautioned in the book, “to suggest that he had sex with men.”
Later in the book, Ms. Solomon writes that “we are made to wonder whether Rockwell’s complicated interest in the depiction of preadolescent boys was shadowed by pedophilic impulses.” She again added a disclaimer: “There is no evidence that he acted on his impulses or behaved in a way that was inappropriate for its time.”
The iconic paintings of Norman Rockwell that poignantly and playfully portray all manner of boys, girls, teens and adults have the males pictures now used as examples of homoerotism.
Makes you wonder, now that Ray Bradbury is dead, when Something Wicked This Way Comes is declared “twink fiction” and Bradbury as a latent pedophile.
Punish boys for exuberant behavior and the dreaded heteronormative behavior, but also cut them off from having close, emotional relationships with a best friend least it be “homoerotic”, and one successfully destroys a creative and, most importantly, independent and self-reliant human being.
Big Government cannot function properly with those in the mix.
Another, less commented upon aspect of these stories is that we’re busily training a new generation of Stasi recruits, willing and able to run to the authorities when they observe personal behavior which doesn’t match the official political guidelines. N.B. the tattling kids (and busybody parents) undoubtedly were rewarded for informing on fellow citizens.
I sent my children to parochial school. I can clearly remember Sister saying to a little girl “Are you tattling to me?”
I’m guessing this policy is not en vogue in public schools.
“we are made to wonder whether Rockwell’s complicated interest in the depiction of preadolescent boys was shadowed by pedophilic impulses.”
Only if you are sicko, leftist idiot with a Gender Studies Degree, trying to hijack a universally popular American Icon and retroactively make him a homosexual to then use his image and art to promote your own homosexual-left politics.
Anybody that see’s Norman Rockwell images of young boys being close and then thinks of gay erotica is the one displaying their gay/pedophiliac impulses. That’s like seeing a wartime image of a bunch of soldier buddies with their arms around each other and think “These guys MUST love the cock.” It is self revealing of the utterers own mind, rather than that of the subject.
Miller: John Wayne was a fag.
All: The hell he was.
Miller: He was, too, you boys. I installed two-way mirrors in his pad in Brentwood, and he come to the door in a dress.
Norman Rockwell was a magazine illustrator depicting Americana on the covers of The Saturday Evening Post, et alia. Evidently, drawing and painting pictures of everyday life makes one a pervert.
These people could use an art history class. Of course, they like to sneer at painters like Rockwell as “inauthentic” since he didn’t create subversive works or works in mediums like excreta.
Greetings:
Confused again. I seem to remember that back during the Catholic Church’s sexual travails, I was clearly cautioned not to conflate pedophilia with homosex. Now the respected author, one Ms. Solomon (Kind of solomonic last name, no?) seems to want me to evolve in exactly that direction. Whither goest I ???
And those “other children” who did their reporting duty. Do we have any information on their genders ? Male, female, somewhat male, somewhat female, wants to be male, wants to be female, gender confused, gender suffused ??? Someone, anyone ???
She’s an anti-papist. Actual numbers of priestly misconduct are pretty low, although one is too many, of course.
Some groups do this a lot and for quite some time, call some historical figure or dead celebrity a homosexual where you can’t prove it one way or another. I always assumed it was some kind of attempt to make homosexuality more acceptable.
I’ve chalked it up to hubris, bgbear. Any historical figure was teh ghey, especially if they were pivotal in the arts or science.

Separated at Birth…
These leftist motherfuckers are running up a real long bill that will come due once this house of cards finally collapses. And collapse it will as the Republicans are constitutionally unable to reduce the size of government. The bastards have gone native on us.
But ultimately those fuckers on the left need to answer for their crimes…I mean goddammit to hell giving a record to a 6 year old boy.
Just as a thought expirement, I’m trying to imagine what the school’s Official Response ™ would have been if the unmamed girl had been twerking on young master Hunter.
The school backed off the sexual harassment claim and just gave him a scolding.
Still would like to know what the school would do about a little girl acting out inappropriately.
Have we reached the point of a more or less complete inversion of the double standard
boysgirls will beboysgrrrlllzzz!?Or a hack biographer trying to make a buckt by suggesting something salacious enough to generate some media interest.

Wake Up And Smell The Nihilism…
World socialism as a whole, and all the figures associated with it, are shrouded in legend; its contradictions are forgotten or concealed; it does not respond to arguments but continually ignores them—all this stems from the mist of irrationality that…
If the kid woulda kissed another boy, they’d a gave him a gold star.
What am I saying? They don’t give individuals gold stars anymore…
They’d a gave everyone a gold star!
Maybe a parade too.
Likely dedicated a month to the occasion as well.

She also wouldn’t firm up her Leftist bona fides if she didn’t satisfy the Bolshe masses by dragging another admired by the Culture figure down into the waiting hands of them as they wallow in their pit of perversity and Nihilism.
