It would seem to me that the mechanics of what happens between male-male and female-female partners are not all that different from what happens (often) between male-female partners.
There's obviously no male-to-female interaction happening, but there are other sorts of things heterosexuals do that are basically the same things that homosexuals do with each other.
Both groups need to be taught about safe sex. A condom is useful, it doesn't matter what gender your partner is.
Note that safe sex education isn't promoting everyone running out and engaging in orgies or experimenting with gay sex. It's simply saying that if you do choose to have sex (studies show that some people attempt this on occasion...) you should do it in such a way that limits the spread of disease, pregnancy, and limits the risk to yourself, your partner, and society in general.
Just because "gay" is a bad word in church, that doesn't mean that the state shouldn't instruct children how to protect themselves from unwanted pregnancy and disease. Last time I checked, this wasn't a theocracy. And last time I checked, people living in actual or virtual theocracies also engaged in straight or gay sex, and contracted diseases.
It seems they could have done better with some safe sex education instead of living in constant fear of adult themes. How else are children supposed to become adults when they are taught nothing about adulthood?
