Sex-Education Education

The WTF quote of the day comes from Nawab Malik, an NCP MLA who opposes sex education in schools:

What is the need for us to appoint sex gurus? Europe needs sex education because of its declining population rates.

There are other quotes on that page as well, invoking “Indian culture”, “the socio-cultural fabric of the country” and suchlike. Yawn. All these gentlemen seem to think that sex education means learning how to have sex, and I think they need to be educated about sex education. I suppose you could call that sex-education education.
