I've always despised the attempt to control children by keeping them ignorant, and it's counterproductive as well as betraying the supposed purpose of schools (which most will say is about teaching them how to live as adults). The belief is that if children know about it that they'll do it. That's why many are against sex ed, because they believe if teens know how to have safe sex then they'll be more likely to do it (and evidence to the contrary be damned). That is, they'd rather their kids live in fear (and hopefully choose abstinence with those who don't who get pregnant or diseased as a result serving as an example to the rest and punished for their sins against God) than give them the information they need (if not then, then one day). Some have even claimed that admitting masturbation exist would encourage kids to masturbate when they otherwise wouldn't! So I imagine they also believe that if gay people are taught as something other than shameful then the kids will be ok with being gay and there's more chance that their own kids will become so when they otherwise wouldn't.
