While I do appreciate having dedicated masturbation stations at work, I dont think elementary schools need them for the students
But I do think we should advance this discussion as a workplace perk
That’s not what your cubicle is for, Frank. We can all see you and it’s gross.
Yeah Frank, last year we converted conference room 8D for this purpose.
you people are no longer allowed to make fun of america's crazy politicians
Now imagine we in Poland have not only this bullshit but also the imported american bullshit.
It's less wacky politicians (though there undoubtedly are some that actually believe that) and more nationalist propaganda - showing Poland as an island of righteousness against the removed west or something. It's an attempt by the far-right Law and Justice Party to gain support via culture war and shocking people into disgust and hoping they back you based on that. Even at the cost of pretty blatant lies.
It works on my family, at least in part. 😕
The remarks were made by Barbara Nowak, the education superintendent for Małopolska, a province of 3.4 million people in southern Poland centred around the city of Kraków. The national government appoints one such official in each of Poland’s 16 provinces, where they are tasked with overseeing schools.
Nowak, a controversial and outspoken figure, was asked in an interview with news website Wirtualna Polska about claims commonly made by her and other Polish conservatives that the World Health Organisation (WHO) is seeking to “sexualise” children.
“The WHO outlines the aims to quickly interest young people in their bodies and in the pleasure of artificially aroused sexuality,” she answered. “These groups claim that the easiest way to relieve a small child’s emotions is through masturbation.”
“In Swedish preschools there are special rooms where the teacher goes with a child and masturbates them,” Nowak continued. “They then know that they can also masturbate on their own.”
To put the "official" in context, that woman is Barbara Nowak, the education curator for the Lesser Poland voivodeship - that is, the official directly responsible for the education system in entire region, and this particular region is one of the most densely inhabited.
...Wait, why did they bring the Swedish flags out for this? Denying that our schools have masturbation rooms makes sense, making it a point of national pride that they don't is really, really weird.
You sure? I reverse searched it and it was a photo on wikimedia commons from 2014
They broke out their special masturbation room rebuke flags to deny it.
Was just riffing on the idea that the people in the picture would be involved in any way with the statements put forward by the Swedish ambassador to Poland.
Still doesn't mean they "brought out the flags for this". Its just a photo of them, could be in any context.
Exactly. Or as they're called in the Swedish Tongue - maSSturbatoriums. No such thing. Silly Polish people. Sweden waves its genitals in your general direction.
