There was a marching song we sang then in primary school "The day is bright, it's bright and GAY, oh happy day, blah blah.." I don't think the word in there is what you're thinking.

Wiseman when you have kids, that's if you will ever have one, pls teach what you please. Thank you
continue exposing your limited literacy capacity föol. It's not for you to bring up my kids into a simple argument, shame on you because if you were wise you would know that being "gay" had a completely different mean before the alphabet people came along and it wasn't even too long ago. If you had half a brain cell, a simple research would have told you Queen's Primer is an old book still using some old terms but no, go ahead and talk about my children because internet gave you muscles

Queen Primer has outlived its usefulness. If you want your children to learn how to read fast, let them watch educative cartoons

It is all about context.

The way that word was used does not suggest any lgbt nonsense.

Someone can no longer use some words again because people with gutter mind will interprete it as something else.
Mr clean mind, stop making excuses for these people cos they know way better than you and are very conscious of their every actions.

So I was helping my four year old daughter today with her home fun, reading the queens primer given by her school, and I was shocked to my marrow at some of the words and sentences these kids are being psychologically indoctrinated with into homosexuality. Children were made to say a sentence like "LET US BE GAY"
I was alarmed and had to immediately call the owner of the school to lay complaint and she too screamed blood of Jesus, that she always go through all materials before handing out to the teachers but this very one being the popular "queens primer" she never expected such to be inside and she had returned several books in the past on social studies that contained homosexual contents like two dads and two mums etc. She even told me some school owners get paid huge sums of dollars to intentionally circulate these materials in their schools!
She thanked me and promised to withdraw the "new queens primer" from her school.

Dear parents, always be aware of the information your kids consume cos nowadays you dont have to be in us or uk for your kids to be at risk of indoctrination. Be alert





Gay could mean alot of things: happy, glad and so on. You should maybe censor out the word if you are not comfortable with it. Or recoin it to glad or something else.




PS I am a teacher too and my school uses the Queen Primer text. What I did was that I recoined the word to glad to douse the effect. The word was used 4 times in the book, so just check and do the needful.

Thank you for your vigilance and civic duty to the society.

I wonder why these scums fail to see the idiocy in their claims that homosexuality is natural and inborn when they won't stop teaching and shoving it down people's throats, particularly kids.

Why teach something you claim is natural?

Heterosexualism is definitely not taught in my opinion the way they seek to teach homosexualism.




The term in question bears several meaning and cannot be solely tied to homosexuality (you would understand my point if you check the context of usage) I doubt if the author had any malicious intent. I think the author is only trying to deliver on knowledge by providing an insight on the usage of the "ay" sound. Unfortunately, the author ought to have considered the cultural implications of this act.

Dumb mofo

Gay means being happy or joyous.
Fanny used to be a a popular girls'name till society equated it to vagina..
Same with Pussycat.. now we can't use Pussy anymore to describe cat
Infact it got so bad that.. the James Bond movie "Octopussy" almost had name change when they wanted to release 50 years box collection.
Dick was a good boy's name.. we all know how that name has gone extinct..

It's an archaic language.
The bible tries to eliminate archaic languages in it that's why people criticise it that it has changed over time but it has never changed in meaning!.

Very true. That's why we have newer English versions.

KJV is still my go to version of the Bible, but even I know some of the words there are archaic

I humbly disagree ,Nne.
That book is old but sleek.Its the easiest way.
Have you even considered that alot of kids doesn't have access to electricity and internet.

I have taught so many outside the classroom with it and gotten results easily.
