Technically, in a public school you probably couldn't sue and win based on violation of religion. Catholic school, probably. This is a public school, with more religions than one. Every sex ed class I was ever in, you had the chance to opt out by getting your parents to sign a form. If you don't opt out, its your fault, and therefore the school is not liable for any religious damage to you. Sex education in schools sucks, and if there were more classes, this **** might not happen as much.
Got a tip for us?

... you americans and your religious infested bigot society are just sick!!! Go and live in your pityful state of immature unreflected fanatism but leave other people alone: welcome to the middle-ages...
...yeah, this will surely freak some of you out, but since I got to the US half a year ago, I'm fed up with your oppressive society, driven by people who are so presumtious to distinguish between right and wrong just on the basis of their biblical literalist morality!!!
...you think you are free...muharharhar, dream on!
...otherwise, immigrate to europe, as intelligent americans did before!!!
just my to cents as an observer from outside

I wouldn't say that America is a bigoted society. Sure we have problems with prejudice, but nowhere is it strong enough to call bigotry. This was an isolated incident, and most who read it were outraged.
Yes, religious groups often persecuted out of desire to be "moral" and "acting gods will", but again, this does not represent the larger portion of Americans.
Immigrate to europe? What the hell are you talking about? Most Americans immigrated from Europe to escape religious or economic persecution.
