it's not really the concept of 'consent' that he has a problem with.... it's that if you teach sex ed and consent to teenagers, you might be implying it's 'ok' to have sex outside of wedlock so long as those involved say 'yes'. he probably wants a total abstinence-before-marriage, and only that, 'sex ed' curriculum.
