Acesta este textul:
A boy of six has been punished by his school in America for sexual harassment after giving a girl classmate a peck on the cheek. His defence that she had asked for a kiss was not accepted. Jonathan Prevette was ejected from his class at Lexington primary, North Carolina forcing him to miss a painting lesson , playtime and an ice cream party for children with good attendance records. The headmaster decided that he had breached the school district’s rules on sexual harassment, which apply to all pupils up to 18. He was made to spend the day working alone in a separate room.
Jane Martin, a spokesman for the district , said: “A six year old kissing another six-year-old is inappropriate behaviour. Unwelcome is unwelcome at any age”. She said the rules on sexual harassment wore clearly set out in a handbook. Parents signed a form saying that their children would abide by them. Jonathan’s mother , Jackie Prevette, said she would be asking for the rules to be applied only ti children aged 10 or older. She said that if her on were caught holding hands with or kissing another child again, he could be suspended. “ This seems awfully hars for babies. What can a child of six understand about sexual harassment?”
Stolen kiss puts PC on trial
A BACKLASH against years of political correctness is emerging in America, sparkea by a case last month when a six-year-old boy was judged quilty of sexual harassment for stealing a kiss in the school corridor. After more than two decades during which often well intentioned efforts to eradicate discrimination in a host of fields from sexism to racism, ageism to “homophobia” – have often ended up ensnaring the innocent in a legal morass, Americans are beginning to question the political correctness industry”
Affirmative action programmes giving preference to people of Afro Caribbean and Hispanic descent, sometimes over better-qualified whites and Asians, are being challenged in the courts.
So-called civil rights infringements which, for exemple, led to a court ruling making it illegal for a security guard in a New York school to remove a 15 year-old’s loaded 9 mm pistol from under his jacket, are generating public debate over whether the pendulum has swung too far.
Then there are the dafter lawsuits such as the $1 million clain by a retired 82 year-old doctor who says a health board denied her a job on the grounds of age.
The case of Johnathan Prevette, whose stolen kiss led to his spending a day in isolation at his school in North Carolina caused many Americans to pause for thought.
Even apparently non-controversial attempts to curb indecency can hit problems. When amayor in Vermont proposed banning nude dancing at two clubs, an organization advocating breastfeeding said it would infringe a mother’s right to suckle her baby.
