Examples would be, an attempt to show a film to 9th graders that explain that Homosexual behavior is a normal behavior. Is censorship the right word? Maybe not, but clearly the attempt to influence someone to a lifestyle/life-choice that is not the norm, is unacceptable.

Homosexuality is "normal", in the sense that homosexuals have existed in every society in the world, throughout history. I really don't think it's a question of trying to convince non-gay students to be gay, which is a pretty absurd proposition. It's more a matter of trying to explain to gay students that they are not abnormal, and of trying to convince straight students that the gay among them should be treated as normal people are treated: with tolerance, and not contempt.

Do you think these goals are unacceptable?
