The law makes it illegal for a young child with gay parents to draw a family picture and discuss it in classroom.
What it does is what you actually cited:
> prohibits instruction "in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards"
I think it’s telling that you made up a fantasy about “kids with gay parents can’t draw their family!” rather than the actual content — which I cited.
This is what I mean by conflating gay rights with inappropriate conduct with children.
Do you really think parents would use the law to target a man talking about being married to a woman and not a man married to a man.
But yes — I think many parents would be uncomfortable taking children to burlesque shows, rather than drag shows. And similarly uncomfortable with a heterosexual teacher who discussed their sexuality in the way that this prohibits.
We don’t teach young kids about sexuality or gender identity at a young age, regardless.
That’s not the job of school teachers.
They don’t just object to teachers talking about their sexuality. They object to admitting that gay people exists - ie a man saying “I went to the movies with my husband”.
The text of (this portion) of the law is:
> Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards.
It says very clearly that a instruction about gender identity MAY NOT OCCUR before grade 4 - and after that must occur in accordance with state standards and to a vague standard of "appropriateness".
