*The Safety Dance*

     One of many examples of Planned Parenthood Perversions


Though Planned Parenthood failed to get this program implemented in
schools, this description of their Safety Dance serves to illustrate
the extraordinary perversions of Planned Parenthood promiscuity
educators specifically and this nation's promiscuity educators in
general.

The resource for this information is *Inside Planned Parenthood*, by
Douglas R.  Scott, copyright 1990 by Douglas R. Scott, Jr., published
by CAC Publications, Falls Church, Virginia.  The references Mr.
Scott draws upon are listed at the end of this document.

Page 35 of Scott's book: "Planned Parenthood is the primary educator
of those who teach children about sexual matters.  Planned Parenthood
of Northern New England, in cooperation with the Vermont Department
of Education, scheduled, 'A Conference on Family Life Education: Are
We Prepared?' The conference was designed to educate 'school
administrators and school board members; home economics, health,
physical education and science teachers; guidance counselors; mental
health counselors; librarians and resource coordinators; sexuality
and family life educators; youth and recreational leaders; parent-
child staff.'[74]

The Planned Parenthood scheduled the "Safety Dance" for the above
people to participate in, although the dance never took place because
of public pressure.  The "Safety Dance" was to be taught to the above
people so that they could use it with the students.  This is the
"Safety Dance" as described by Scott:

"The 'Safety Dance: A Safer Sex Dance Party," has a target audience
of 'high school, college and adult audiences'. A description and
outline of the dance is available.  One part of the dance includes
'Puttin' on the Condom.'[76]

'During the course of the evening each person receives and wears a
nametag depicting a different step in condom use.  During this
activity, participants arrange themselves in a line (or a circle)
according to how they think a condom is used (if there are a large
number of participants, have several groups perform the activity at
the same time and compare results!) After the line is formed, have
the participants read off their tags in order.  Acting out the steps
can increase the fun of this activity.  The nametags are labeled as
follows: Physical attraction, think about having sex, talk about
having sex, decide to use a condom, pool money, go to a condom store,
decide what kind to buy, take box off rack, pay cashier, decide where
to store them, meet your lover, decide to have sex, need to use a
condom, open package, penis hard?, place condom on penis, fall in
love (throughout, or at all?), leave space at tip, roll condom down
penis, enough lubrication?, if no use KY jelly . . . or more
foreplay, intercourse, ejaculation, hold on the rim of the condom,
withdraw penis, remove condom, loss of erection, decide where to
throw condom away, trash it, wash penis, relax, feel good?, partner
have an orgasm?'

Another suggestion for the 'Safety Dance' includes, 'Demonstrations
of fun and unusual condoms [from Amsterdam, etc.] and condom use by
placing human-sized condom over a volunteer's body.  One activity is
called the 'Safer Sex Continuum activity'. This activity involves
taping placards to a wall listing different forms of sexual activity.
Sexual activity listed includes oral sex, anal intercourse, the use
of sex toys, rimming, phone sex, and looking at erotic films and
magazines.  About 30 other sexual activities are listed.
Participants are asked to rank the placards from least risky to most
risky for becoming infected with the AIDS virus.  As noted
previously, educators were urged to assign the dance to students as
homework.[78]

It is recommended that the 'Safety Dance' include a 'condom relay
race'.  This event is described as, 'A fun, 'competitive' activity
enabling participants to become comfortable handling condoms'. The
relay requires two props: one condom per participant and several firm
(not ripe) bananas.  The players are expected to open the package and
roll the condom onto the banana.  Another player rolls the condom
off.  This process is repeated until all players have participated.
The 'Safety Dance' concluded following the breaking of a 'condom
pinada' at midnight."[79]

(The following paragraph isn't about the Safety Dance. . . . I just
couldn't resist putting it into this paper.)

Page 38: From Jo Ann Gasper, former deputy assistant secretary for
population affairs with the Department of Health and Human Services:
Scott says "Gasper provides some examples of Planned Parenthood's
teaching methods.  These include having young students handle
'life-size models of male and female genitalia'.  In another
exercise, 'a girl fits a condom over two fingers of a boy.'[82] In
addition to these 'exercises,' students are taken on field trips."
Scott says one field trip is to a drug store.

Questions:

Is this what teens need to know?

Which of the above activities promotes abstinence?

Which of the above activities even hints that abstinence is a way to
prevent sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy?

Which of the above doesn't encourage sexual intercourse?

Therefore, which doesn't increase the disease rate through high
condom failure?

And which doesn't increase the pregnancy rate through high
contraceptive failure?

And which doesn't increase the resultant abortion rate?

Therefore, isn't the above explicitly and precisely counterproductive
to "sex"-eds alleged goals?
