The South Carolina section (and the map) need to be changed because of this.
Nevermind, I fixed it. The image still needs to be changed though.

Just fixed the image as well.

The result of the move request was: moved to Anti-LGBT curriculum laws in the United States. The move was nearly unanimously supported, but there was also agreement that "in the United States" was needed for recognisability. Number 5 7 23:42, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
No promo homo laws →
Anti-LGBT curriculum laws – The current title strikes me as a
trendy slogan which does not describe the subject very well. I think it should be renamed to a more descriptive and more encyclopedic alternative like
Anti-LGBT curriculum laws or
Laws against LGBT education, with no promo homo listed as a common alternative. I'm fairly certain this will be an uncontroversial change, and will probably be bold and do it if no significant objections arise. Still I figured I should open it up to discussion in case I'm missing a substantial argument for maintaining the current name. Suggestions for better names also welcome.

Right-ho!
It's about time to update the page concerning Florida's HB 1557 Parential Rights in Education Bill. It's got to be done sometime!

Honestly yeah the bullying stuff probably doesn't fit here, which would make my other talk thing irrelevant. Also there's a new one passed in Tennessee, if I get time I'll add that one Dinosar199 ( talk) 21:34, 13 May 2022 (UTC)

Hey I'm colorblind and some of the colors on the map are indistinguishable for me, specifically "state laws prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation only" and "state school regulation or ethical code for teachers that address discrimination or bullying of students based on sexual orientation and gender identity". I don't really know how to change that or if it's possible, but if someone could do that it would improve the accessibility of this article. Dinosar199 ( talk) 21:11, 13 May 2022 (UTC)

This article makes use of the phrase “no promo homo” (in the lead and in other sections) in reference to this type of anti-LBGT law. While I verified that the Columbia source provided by a previous editor does indeed include “no promo homo”, I have not once seen this phrase in any media or other sources mentioning these law(s). Instead, “don’t say gay” seems to be the common colloquial phrase used by the general public. I did add the latter phrase to the lead today (without deleting the former), and just noticed another earlier editor replaced the former with the latter at one point further down in the article. My questions for all are: *Do you feel one of these phrases is used more than the other?
I believe yes, but I believe an open discussion on the matter is in everyone’s best interest. Please weigh in!
Thank you. Informationageuser ( talk) 01:01, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

I removed the map because it tries to draw a juxtaposition between two completely separate areas, anti-discrimination and controlling school curriculums. It is absurd to pretent like banning education on sexual orientation and gender identity is the opposite of banning discrimination against LGBT children, when schools can do both and most schools don't even teach anything about sexual orientation or gender identity in the first place.

I was wonder should the Alabama information be moved to the overturned laws or repealed laws sections because the information is not talking about Anti-LGBT laws but about one that was removed. Aosanch ( talk) 23:27, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

The lead currently describes Anti-LGBT curriculum laws as
laws approved by various U.S. states that prohibit or limit the mention or discussion of homosexuality and transgender identity in public schools, especially in younger grades.
This does not seem to match how it these laws are discussed in most sources, which generally describe them as bans on discussing sexuality and gender identity. The one exception that I saw was the GLSEN source, which is the oldest. Additionally, this sentence would be improved with more concise language. I propose that we change the first sentence to say they are "laws that prohibit the discussion of sexuality and gender identity in public schools."
