These resources include a \u200bdiverse range \u2063of programs such as \u2063the &#8220;Queer Pagan Exploration&#8221; club, a &#8220;transdiscovery&#8221; group for 11-year-olds, and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/meet-the-cdc-backed-groups-that-want-to-teach-trans-ideology-to-kindergartners\/\" title=\"Meet the CDC-Backed Groups That Want To Teach Trans Ideology to Kindergartners\">sex education curriculum<\/a> that sparked controversy and \u2063was \u2064banned by\u2064 a nonpartisan Nevada \u2062school board \u2063over four years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Our Center Reno proudly identifies itself\u2063 as an &#8220;LGBTQIA+ community center&#8221;\u200c and \u2063serves as a \u2062meeting\u200d place for various far-left organizations, including the Northern Nevada Democratic Socialists of America.

For instance, it organizes \u2063monthly\u200b &#8220;Queer Pagan Exploration&#8221; classes that delve \u2062into intriguing \u2062topics like witchcraft and pentagrams. Additionally, the organization conducts &#8220;summer intensive&#8221; study groups focused on the controversial \u2063Scarleteen Queer Sex Education curriculum, which not only \u200bteaches children\u200d about sexual health but also encourages them to explore their own bodies.<\/p>\n<p>Rosen&#8217;s visit to Our Center \u2063Reno \u200bon \u200cJuly 8 aligned with her commitment to\u200c defending &#8220;LGBTQ+ rights&#8221; during a time \u2063when\u2063 they are\u2062 under attack, as she mentioned \u200con \u2064 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/senjackyrosen\/status\/1677739628961382404?s=46&#038;t=YrUjbTBG4uVsuhJ3Iz9cqg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>.

However, it has since emerged as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/left-wing-advocacy-groups-blast-bidens-judicial-pick\/\" title=\"Left-Wing Advocacy Groups Blast Biden's Judicial Pick\">prominent left-wing advocacy group<\/a> in Northern \u2063Nevada. One of the\u2062 center&#8217;s \u200cmost controversial aspects is its unwavering support for the Scarleteen\u2063 program, which was removed from the approved education \u200cresources list \u2064by the Washoe County Board of Education in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>During the school board&#8217;s discussions on the proposed \u200dsex education curriculum, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/court-ruling-deals-decisive-blow-to-race-based-admission-policy-at-top-high-school\/\" title=\"Court Ruling Deals Decisive Blow To Race-Based Admission Policy At Top High School\">concerned parents voiced<\/a> their objections to Scarleteen&#8217;s lessons on\u200c gender identity and other contentious topics. Karen England, the executive director\u200b of the Nevada Family Alliance, expressed her concerns about the curriculum&#8217;s \u2062explicit content,\u2064 stating that\u2062 it was &#8220;way too much too soon \u200cfor 14-year-olds&#8221; and \u200ccontained &#8220;very graphic&#8221; material for teenagers.<\/p>\n<p>After a lengthy public \u2063comment session, \u200cthe nonpartisan school board voted 5-2 to remove any references to Scarleteen from the curriculum, reflecting the community&#8217;s reservations about the \u200bprogram.<\/p>\n<p>Scarleteen describes itself as a &#8220;progressive, independent sexuality and relationships education media and support \u200borganization&#8221;\u200b that provides in-person\u200c outreach to\u200c teenagers. However, a\u200b closer examination of Scarleteen&#8217;s educational materials reveals why even a school\u2063 board in solidly blue Washoe County had concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Scarleteen offers literature \u2064such as a guide titled &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.scarleteen.com\/article\/bodies\/how_do_you_masturbate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How Do You Masturbate?<\/a>&#8221; that recommends\u2064 &#8220;pre-orgasmic people&#8221; and &#8220;younger&#8221; individuals engage in &#8220;a daily masturbation session, over at least several weeks.&#8221; Another guide called &#8220;The \u2064Transmasculine Flow&#8221; suggests \u200celective hysterectomies as a solution for those seeking to &#8220;affirm their gender.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Scarleteen\u200b also operates an \u2062internet \u2064message \u200dboard where children\u200b as young \u2063as 13 can ask questions\u2062 about sex, which\u200b are often answered by adults. Disturbingly, one instance involved a 14-year-old discussing a &#8220;diaper&#8221; and feces &#8220;fetish,&#8221; to which a \u200cScarleteen staff member named &#8220;Sam&#8221; responded with a \u2062guide called the &#8220;Sex Readiness\u200c Checklist.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Heather Corinna, \u200dthe owner of Scarleteen, also \u200bwrites an advice\u2064 column for children and young adults. In a 2008 post\u200d updated\u2062 in 2023, she \u200baddressed \u200dthe\u2064 question of whether a 23-year-old man attracted to\u200d teenagers is\u2064 &#8220;a \u200bpedophile.&#8221; Corinna&#8217;s response\u2064 included statements such as &#8220;in both humans and the rest of the animal kingdom, it&#8217;s not unusual for a \u2064person to be attracted to someone who \u2063has the physically markers of adulthood and\u2063 fertility&#8221; and emphasized the possibility of &#8220;rich sexual and interpersonal relationships&#8221; with individuals \u200bof any age.<\/p>\n<p>In July, Scarleteen \u200bpartnered \u200dwith Lucky Bloke, a sex shop, \u200dallowing Scarleteen to \u200creceive 40 percent of revenue from purchases made on its website. The partnership offers items like condoms and lubricants that are discreetly shipped \u200cin packaging that does not reveal their contents.<\/p>\n<p>Despite\u2063 requests for comment, Rosen did\u200c not respond.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nevada Democratic Socialists of America&#8217;s Sen.
