Police have been called to a council meeting over school sex education, with the public cleared from the room, and several women leaving in tears.
A graphic leaflet issued by opponents claimed the new policy being introduced across Wales could introduce young children to a variety of sexual ideas.
The emergency Gwynedd council meeting was described as chaos.
But the leaflet's claims were rejected by the Welsh government as "full of misinformation" and "incorrect".
Councillors were held back in the chamber at the end of the meeting for "safety reasons".
