Over the past 10 years, we have seen a a veritable explosion of new sexual and gender identity labels that people, especially young people, are using to describe themselves. Many young people for a verity of reasons including better sex education and access to the internet are finding that they don't neatly fit into the old categories of straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual or even what it means to be boy or girl. This is the great chasm that separates the beliefs and behaviors belonging to members of many of today's youth from the political, religious, and educational institutions and belief systems of the older generations. Politicians, religious leaders and parents have begun to accuse educators of trying to "sexualize or groom children" or  that teachers are trying to turn children and adolescents into gays, or even worse trying to convince them that they are transgender. There is very little truth to be found in any these accusations. The truth is closer to the fact that young people are learning a plethora of information in school, from their peers, and from the internet and then applying what fits to themselves and in some places receiving acceptance from their peer group for their non majoritive identities.  The question that still remains is whether this new stage of the neosexual revolution is going to be able to flourish or will it wilt and die in the toxic soil of a reinvigorated conservative [[heteronormative]] resurgence?

Can the cat be put back into the bag or is it already to late?.


Over the past 10 years, we have seen a a veritable explosion of new sexual and gender identity labels that people, especially young people, are using to describe themselves. Many young people for a verity of reasons including better sex education and access to the internet are finding that they don't neatly fit into the old categories of straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual or even what it means to be boy or girl. This is the great chasm that separates the beliefs and behaviors belonging to members of many of today's youth from the political, religious, and educational institutions and belief systems of the older generations. Politicians, religious leaders and parents have begun to accuse educators of trying to "sexualize or groom children" or that teachers are trying to turn children and adolescents into gays, or even worse trying to convince them that they are transgender. There is very little truth to be found in any these accusations and it is more an attempt to "shift blame" i.e. "that is not really who my kid is, the teachers brainwashed him to say that etc..." The truth is closer to the fact that young people are learning a plethora of information in school, from their peers, and from the internet and then applying what fits to themselves and in some places receiving acceptance from their peer group for their non majoritive identities. The question that still remains is whether this new stage of the neosexual revolution is going to be able to flourish or will it wilt and die in the toxic soil of a reinvigorated conservative heteronormative resurgence?
