SOGI was initially created… I mean marketed as an anti-bullying program meant to be integrated into policies and procedures, fostering an “inclusive environment” and providing teacher resources.

However, in practice, SOGI has been used to undermine parental rights, intimidate parents and educators who raise questions about SOGI and other ideological/political matters, introduce gender ideologies into educational curricula, and rationalize the inclusion of sexually explicit materials in academic settings.

Why does an anti-bullying initiative bear the title SOGI, which stands for Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity?
