First of all, extremely misleading thread title.

Second, is there sex educatoin before the 9th grade in the state? If not, then this is would seem just fine. No point of talkign abut homosexuality if sexuality hasn't been talked about in the first place.

It is still wrong, because if a 8th grade student comes to a teacher with questions on why he thinks boy x is cute, or female thinks girl y is hott they cannot discuss it and explain to them why.

Then it is not in class, is it?

It's still not allowed, according to the bill.

"R-Shelbyville, who said current law already prohibits the teaching of any sex education not covered by the state Board of Education's "family life curriculum," the Knoxville News Sentinel reported Friday. However, Campfield contended homosexuality is being discussed in classrooms. "

Right from the linked article. I see no problem with what they are dong given no one talks about sexuality at all. Also, the bill implies homosexuality in class. If you go after class or whatever and ask a teacher it seems it is fine.
