Tohighschoolguy, 7th and 8th grade is already too late. I was in the library and saw a preschool picture book about a froggy and his crush. Can’t remember the exact title but you get the point. Kids are being targeted at earlier and earlier ages. I just contrast Wendy Shalit’s two books – A Return to Modesty already raised the alarm, but you read it and think late teens and older; Girls Gone Mild is about tweens and even younger.
(And there was another book, I think by a Stephanie Levine, called something like Mystics, Mavericks and…something else with an M, about the empowerment of separation between the sexes, among other things.)
My point with bringing up these books is, that as Teenager mentioned, boys are touching, they are being conditioned to think that they can get away with a lot more, because the girls are letting them. You talk about getting to middle school kids. What kind of curriculum or what do you see is the most important message to keep them, let’s say, asexual as long as possible?
