“Advocates for Youth” is Grooming Schoolchildren for Gay Sex, Pedophilia, and HIV

Public schools are the top target for the Left’s degeneracy. If Christians don’t wake up, they’ll lose their children for good.

Part of a developing series on the hypersexualization of America’s schools by gay and transgender activists

Politics has always been perverse, but today’s perverts are all political—and they’re coming for your kids.

Meet Advocates for Youth (AFY), one of the leading groups spreading the debauched ideology of transgenderism to America’s schools with millions in the bank, courtesy of Warren Buffett.

Since 2008, AFY has raked in $28 million from the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation, the Buffett-funded philanthropy named for his late ex-wife. Few conservatives realize that the “Wizard of Omaha” is likely the single biggest funder of pro-abortion causes in history, born from his fears of global “overpopulation.”

One wonders, does Buffett see promoting gay sex as another means of depopulating the Earth?

Obsessed with Sex

Regardless, AFY supports both. While the group presents itself as a science-based sexual education curricula provider, it’s true purpose is abolishing the “outdated ideologies” preventing classrooms from becoming laboratories for pornography, the seedbed for child-predation and sex trafficking.

In March 2022, for example, AFY was part of an open letter demanding Anheuser-Busch (which owns Budweiser) cease advertising on Twitter because its “anti-LGBTQIA+ content . . . attacks children.”

Compare that with the threat to children posed by AFY’s sexual education guidelines for K-12 schools nationwide.

Second-graders (ages 7-8), the group writes, should be able to “define bodily autonomy” and “consent”—to have sex, presumably, since this is a sex ed curriculum. Fifth-graders (ages 10-11) should be able to identify “trusted adults” whom they “can talk to about relationships”—again, of which variety?

By the end of 8th grade—when kids are 13-14 years old—AFY demands children be able to:

  • describe [variations in] human reproductive systems, including . . . intersex, vulvas, circumcised and intact penises;
  • define sexual identity . . . [as] heterosexual, bisexual, lesbian, gay, queer, two-spirit, asexual, pansexual;
  • define vaginal, oral, and anal sex;
  • list at least four methods of contraception that are available without prescription;
  • explain medical breakthroughs in HIV prevention . . . and why HIV can now be considered a chronic condition;
  • define racism and intersectionality and describe their impacts on sexual health;
  • analyze how . . . intersecting identities can influence attitudes, beliefs, and expectations about gender, gender identity, gender roles, and gender expression; and
  • develop a plan for the school to promote dignity and respect for people of all genders, gender identities, and gender expressions [emphasis added].

By the end of 10th grade, AFY wants students to be able to evaluate which “sexual relationships . . . are personally most important” to them, “describe the steps for how a person living with HIV can remain healthy,” “define reproductive justice,” and “explain the state and federal laws related to safe haven, parenting, and sterilization, including their impacts on oppressed communities.”

By the time students graduate high school, they ought to be hardened LGBT activists able to “advocate” for LGBT school policies and against “systemic oppression” impacting “the sexual agency of communities of color,” according to AFY.

There’s a constant drumbeat of HIV/AIDS references in the report—both avoiding infection and learning to live with it—which imply that normal teenagers should prepare to live in a state of constant orgy. AFY’s vision isn’t preventing venereal disease; it embraces the hyper-sexed lifestyle.

“Queering” the Schools

AFY wormed its curriculum into public schools in Oceanside, California, where K-6 schoolchildren were taught to practice “mutual masturbation,” “bathing together,” and sex wearing a condom (“vaginal,” “anal,” and “oral”) in order to avoid contracting HIV.

The school only removed the outrageous content after local parents rebelled against AFY’s “aggressive sex programs” in 2018. How many other school districts are teaching this perversion right now?

AFY runs AMAZE.org, which targets 10–14-year-olds with obscene cartoons. One video entitled “Porn: Fact or Fiction?” explains:

Sometimes when you are on the internet, you might accidentally or intentionally end up on a website that features pornography . . . Being curious about sex and looking at pictures or films of naked bodies or people engaging in sexual behaviors is perfectly normal [emphasis added].

The video concludes with a child smiling at her computer screen and says, “I wonder how long the longest cucumber in the world is? Hey, that’s not a cucumber.”

Another video entitled “My Friend is Transgender” depicts cartoon characters purchasing female clothes for their “male-bodied friend” to “help her dress in a way that expresses how she feels.”

Other topics include sexting, how to be a “LGBTQIA+ Ally,” using “correct” pronouns, the importance of penis and breast size, female masturbation, intimacy in sex, lesbian moms, coming out as gay, and gay adoption.

Advocates for Youth: AMAZE video series for children

AFY offers slides (in both English and Spanish) for classrooms labeled “I Think I Might Be Lesbian,” “Bisexual + Pansexual,” “Asexual,” or “Transgender.” It even tailors to Muslims with slides in Arabic quoting the Quran: “I’m Muslim and My Gender Doesn’t Fit Me,” or “I’m Muslim and I Might Not Be Straight.”

Remember that the indoctrination doesn’t end there. AFY’s IRS disclosure for 2022 reports that the group spent $1.7 million “train[ing] thousands of youth activists . . . to serve as advocates and leaders in the progressive movement.” Teaching “comprehensive sex ed” means creating the next generation of foot soldiers for the Left—and they want your kids in their godless legion.

Redeem the Nation

The Left doesn’t merely want to teach kids about sex, but how to have sex. What leftists call “comprehensive sex education” is always sold under the label “preventative healthcare,” as if masturbation and pornography are pillars of a healthy lifestyle rather than an invitation to abuse and unyielding misery.

The truth is that men and women who subject their bodies to “transition” surgery are guaranteeing themselves a life of debility and poverty. They will be in and out of the hospital for the rest of their lives, their money guzzled away by endless medical bills and doctors for whom the Hippocratic Oath is a quaint suggestion.

Secular culture is powerless to stop this evil. Only Christ’s church can. One reason this disease spread so far, so fast, is that past generations of Christians were too squeamish to properly address sexual sin they way they did slavery, racial bigotry, and alcoholism.

Ignoring it is no longer an option; this is the issue of our day. America’s young people are desperate for justice and good news—only the Lord, working through His people, can deliver it.
