During the parliamentary debate it was evident that PiS wholeheartedly supports the ban on sex education in schools. Przemysław Czarnek called him "admirable". And Marcin Warchoł, speaking on behalf of the Ministry of Justice, argued that sex education leads to rape.
On Wednesday, April 15, 2020, the Sejm debated a draft amendment to the Penal Code, which provides for prison sentences for, among others sex education. The project was submitted by the PRO - Right to Life foundation during the last term of the Sejm, which collected 260,000 signatures under it. people. The project bears the noisy marketing name "Stop Pedophilia" .

OKO.press refutes 6 counterfeits of the right wing about a project to punish sex education;
Prison for sex education and prescribing contraception. The "Stop pedophilia" project in the Sejm.
MEPs will decide whether the draft will be sent for further work in the voting block on Thursday, April 16. During the debate, however, it was clear that the matter was already decided. PiS wholeheartedly supports the idea of penalization of sex education.
This time in the Sejm the draft was presented by the president of the PRO Foundation - Right to life Mariusz Dzierżawski. He presented a permanent set of homophobic nonsense, including that homosexuality is a disorder and gays have an average of 200 homosexual partners.
He also asked why PiS had not yet denounced the Istanbul Convention on Counteracting Violence against Women and complained that a month ago a court in Poznań recognized him as a shocker. He also warned that sex educators were sponsored by George Soros, and the main goal of the WHO is "multiplying abortion".
On behalf of the PiS club, the position was presented by Przemysław Czarnek, a former voivode of Lublin who is known for homophobic views . He clearly stated that the club is in favor of referring the project to further legislative squares. Przemysław Czarnek referred to the constitutional protection of children's rights. Especially before demoralization.
"If Rzeczpospolita is to oppose the demoralization of children, it can not only, but even has to punish for promoting their sexual activity," he said.
Sex education leads to ... rapes?
The government has not reached a position on the "Stop Pedophilia" project, but deputy minister Marcin Warchoł spoke in the debate on behalf of the Ministry of Justice.
"Data on crimes committed by minors show that only in 2014 the perpetrators of almost half of the rape were minors, boys aged 13-15. Twenty-one rapists are only fifteen years old. Six - fourteen, and two were only thirteen. This data is from 2014, but today it looks even worse, "he began.
He also told the story that in Wales, a boy raped a classmate after leaving sex education classes. And then for several minutes he argued that it is sex education that leads to aggression, rape, addiction to pornography, compulsive behavior and unwanted pregnancies.
Warchoł also attacked WHO standards, saying that the recommendations on sex education that are there conflict with the Polish Penal Code.
