According to that link [which was the only evidence I was aware of prior to the thread starter posting belated evidence] the Left had made no complaint over this issue.
Now from his afterthought post I see the issue appears to be primarily with LGBTQ+ not "sexual bestiality, sadomasochistic abuse, coprophilia, urophilia, or fetishism", which seems something of an OTT response.

I will aske you again - what is the problem with notifying parents when sexual topics come up? Why not offer them an alternative if they don't want their kids exposed to it?
And this is one of the books they don't want their kids exposed to:
"Gender Queer," an award-winning 2014 graphic novel by Maia Kobabe, includes photos of sexual acts between a boy and a man.Last edited by seer; 10-04-2022, 12:08 PM.Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope.

(3) "Sexual conduct" means actual or explicitly simulated acts of masturbation, homosexuality, sexual intercourse, or physical contact in an act of apparent sexual stimulation or gratification with a person's clothed or unclothed genitals, pubic area, buttocks or, if such be female, breast.

As for your comment concerning:
photos of sexual acts between a boy and a man
The one photo that gets mentioned is a reproduction of a section from a piece of ancient Greek pottery. According to the favourite reference site of rogue06 [Wiki] there is fantasy sequence depicted in the novel premised on that piece of pottery. The novel also contains some masturbation and an oral sex scene.
However, this work is aimed at older pupils. It is not being read in Kindergarten and teachers are not gratuitously corrupting "innocent" young minds.
By the time most children have reached the age by which they will be reading this book they will be aware of their own sexual fantasies, sexual feelings and experiences, including masturbation; albeit not necessarily oral sex. It also gives reassurance to those who are possibly struggling with gender issues, that they are not weird or abnormal.
I can see why why there is such a furore over the book. It is because many people are really hung up about sex [and all things sexual] and get very agitated if those issues stray out of what they deem to be the "appropriate" context and/or situation.

- I would assume schools have some policy on such issues as reading material [and of which parents are aware] prior to enrolling their children;
- Education should not be beholden to the whims of minorities or zealots [on either side of the political divide];
- Parents can always move their offspring to other scholastic institutions, or [as your country permits] home educate, although that might prove an issue if both parents are in full time employment.

C. The term "sexual orientation," when used in reference to discrimination in the Code and acts of the General Assembly, means a person's actual or perceived heterosexuality, bisexuality, or homosexuality.
