Boys at a northern beaches Anglican school were told to choose the qualities they looked for in a girl from a list that allocated more points for virginity, looks, and strong Christian values than for generosity and adventurousness.
The school’s headmaster Geoff Lancaster late last week sent parents a letter to apologise and addressed the year 10 students directly on Monday, acknowledging the material was inappropriate and pledged to personally oversee a review of Christian studies lessons.
The five-point qualities included being physically fit, easy to talk to, fun/sense of humour and wise, while the four-point qualities included sporty/sexy, goes to church, honest/doesn’t lie or cheat, and is friendly.You have 25 points to allocate on qualities that you would look for in a girl. Now this is supposed to be for a lasting relationship. Listed below are a number of qualities, each marked with a point system.
One point was allocated to hair or eye colour, having money, being generous, adventurous, and caring for the world. The boys laughed about the lesson afterwards. “They think joking about it was okay because their own teacher was telling them it was okay,” said another student. “He is very sorry for the offence he has caused and saddened to think that the way this discussion was framed has upset our students,” the letter said.

JordsBaker Another clear example of why all religions are the greatest corrupters of, and hindrance to, a coherent productive educated society. Phase out all false religious teachings in favour of humanity and science.
JordsBaker Weird outrage.
JordsBaker This is what religion is people. Dinosaur ideologies that are being served up to kids to make them just as Fuked up as the loser parents that send them to these schools. All religious cults should be unfounded and taxed like the businesses they are.

JordsBaker And this school gets public funding, even though it’s culture is misogynistic. Surely public funding should be contingent on upholding Australian values.
