to find out what sex education in America is like right now, but it turns out to be a surprisingly difficult question to answer now in the past, depending on how old you are, sex education may have been little more That Watching movies like this from time to time I have a strong sexual urge and the only way I can solve it is by masturbating, George, I'm very glad that you can tell me about this, maybe it's because we've known each other for so long. long, my name is

ny stent to me, it all started when I went bowling with Judy today.

I should have known something was different as soon as she got a strike, she's usually such a bad bowler, so what's different about you? I have my first period today. What is the problem? It means blood is flowing out of my uterus. That? Okay, okay, okay, first, it's incredibly misinformation. Menstrual blood is not some kind of uterine hgh that makes you amazing at bowling and second, and this is true, the young man. in that that video is Jonathan Banks Mike from Breaking Bad and if that video doesn't provide the basis for the prequel to call Seoul better, I will be extremely disappointed, teaching sex ads in schools is really important for obvious reasons, no.

Parents want to talk to their children about sex and no child wants to talk about sex with their parents, that is why when you watch a movie together and there is a sex scene, you all freeze and silently pray for the merciful release of the death and children. I Have Good Questions That Need Good Answers The Times recently published an article with a slideshow of questions boys wrote on cards to a sex educator, including why the boy's penis is shaped like an arrow, is it okay to be gay, and how much Do I have time to do it? wait to have sex I'm excited what are the answers to is it blood committed yes and can you at least wait until the end of class but perhaps the most poignant question was will this work out for me because after research about sexual education? shows this week The answer depends quite a bit on where you live, there is no required standard for sex education in this country, in fact only 22 states require that children receive it and only 13 require that the information presented be medically accurate, which Which is crazy.

I do not accept that a history class is not historically accurate. The prince started the American Revolution in 1984 and his purple reign

s until the current class. Basically, we have a strange patchwork system that varies wildly and not just from state to state but from district to district. and even from school to school, in fact, an Ohio news outlet tried to find out what kids in their area were learning and hit a brick wall: the state has absolutely no sex education guidelines, so each school district decides what is best for any child that many school districts don't I don't want to talk about that at all, you see students surveyed in every school district in four southwest Ohio counties, most wouldn't tell us what they teach and when they teach it, although they It assumes that all of this is public information and that really is not. well because two teenagers shouldn't have completely different levels of sex education just because they are in two different school districts

's football game is between Lakewood High School and Middletown High School not only are they bitter rivals one of those teams has no idea What diaphragm is is let's play ball, let's play ball, but while it is difficult to discover what children are learning, in some cases it is possible to discover what they are not learning, for example in Mississippi, while you can talk about contraceptives , the law prohibits condom demonstrations. in class that means no condom on a banana no condom on a cucumber no condom on a zucchini and that's terrible partly because it's fun to put condoms on produce, but mostly because Mississippi ranks second in the country in pregnancy rates teenager now, fortunately, this situation has inspired some creative alternatives watch this former teacher describe how to use a condom without using a condom directly.

I start with a sock and I want to push the air out of the toe on the side because I want to make sure there is room for my toes. When I'm doing an activity with the shoe on, I take the sock and put it on top of my foot. you want to take your sock and you want to roll it to the bottom of your foot, you want to roll it to the bottom of your foot. foot and then you can put it inside your shoe, that's very clever, that's very clever, although it's not perfect, you know, if you can't get a sock out of the package, you don't lose your foot for a minute and you need to think about rihanna to get it back but it's back but uh, but Mississippi's restrictions are just the beginning here in eight states there are laws that significantly limit what teachers can say about homosexuality to their students, which means the answer to that kid's question is Well being gay could be a shrug or something much worse and Utah law prohibits any instruction on the intricacies of intercourse for reasons a state legislator explained those are the things we don't want to be taught in our schools those are things that should be taught in our schools wait at home taught in your home here is an exchange that has never happened how are you so good at sex?

I was homeschooled and in certain districts of the country the only sex education you could get is abstinence only, which you may consider a relic of the past, but it's still very much around Congress, recently increased federal funding for education based on abstinence alone approximately $50 to $75 million per year and at least some of that money is matched by states, meaning students are still being exposed to abstinence-focused programs, but with names like weight , which means why am I tempted to go crazy or abstinence protects everyone and not doing stupid things, which I suppose means that no one should copy regularly, except when individuals now approach occasionally, ultimately not disastrous. and here's a sample video from that

show, if you have sex outside of a permanent monogamist, and monogamy doesn't mean one at a time, that means a partner who's only been with you, you have sex outside of that context. and you guys will pay, if there is a girl who throws herself at you, if she is the one who pressures you to have sex, if this is a girl who dresses that way, who not only tells you but the rest of the world Take me now, I have some.

Some advice for you, run away from this girl, run, I didn't say walk away slowly, I said run away from her, in fact don't even bother running guys, just cut their dicks off. Girls are snake charmers and it's time to murder your snakes, murder them now. do it do it and see abstinence is a healthy choice that many teenagers will make either by choice or as I can attest by circumstances but but that's not the point that's not the point it shouldn't be the only thing you teach and not just because many studies question its effectiveness, the fact is that, according to the CDC, most Americans have more than one sexual partner in their lifetime and the average age at which people start having sex is around 17 years old. , so simply saying don't do it is not practical and even when they DO teach sex education.

Schools can teach it with a strong bias. We found a company that offers schools two versions of the same contraception video. Version B is labeled unbiased. Check out. Nobody ever said that being a teenager is easy. They face many important decisions, but probably no decision is more important than the one they will make about becoming sexually active. Some of you may already be sexually active, but many of you are still not having sex and could still be waiting. for marriage, the right person or maybe you're just not ready to take on this serious responsibility right now, cool people, those 30 year old actors dressed like 90s teenagers make some very good points, however, the version a, which is not nonjudgment goes in a slightly different direction to see if you can spot it anyone ever said that being a teenager is easy you have to face many important decisions but probably no decision is more important than the one you will make about becoming sexually active as As a teenager you are expected to wait until you are married before becoming sexually active until then abstinence is the only acceptable option for your family your school and your community wait why did they keep the first part about this? a decision at all, but they should have said that no decision is more non-existent than the one you can't make about sex.

Also remember that God is watching you masturbate and the fluids coming out of your genitals are actually His. It makes it sad, but the very fact that there are two videos with the same title but very different messages shows how difficult it can be to find out what is happening with sex education where you live and this doesn't even take into account the speakers guests that schools can bring in to augment their program remember the no-fucking lady, that's pam stenzel and her website claims she talks to half a million young people every year, presumably so, here's the line you can't walk over spend any genital contact of any kind. that's hand to genital mouth to genital genital to genitals oral sex that's mouth to genital that's sex and if you've ever crossed this line you're at risk of getting sick and you need to get tested and don't you dare, don't you dare Tell anyone that You're a virgin, why are you trying to shout arousal at teenagers?

Shows like hers are so relentless against sex that you could easily end up thinking the adult world is just an endless barrage of unwanted cocks, which, by the way, was Tinder's original catchphrase but but but the problem is that the verse is not alone Shelley Donahue is currently speaking in schools across the country. She likes to show the dangers of more than one sexual partner by describing women as a piece of duct tape and then gluing her together. duct tape on the arms of several children until this happens how many couples do we have before we get married on average in the United States six yes, so can you imagine what is going to start happening with the tape?

You are going to lose your power of union. Your point is that the tape is used so much that it gets damaged, which doesn't even consider the possibility that the tape is perfectly happy and had a good time or that maybe some kids like tape that already knows how to stick when They know them, but this idea. that sex is something that devalues ​​those who have had it, especially women, comes up again and again. Non-virgins can be compared to a used toothbrush or chewed gum and then there is this video in which a non-virgin approaches her. the wedding night is compared to a dirty shoe oh what are these my sneakers Michelle what is this?

It seems like the entire football team has been in on these things. I mean, I need you all wearing socks. Socks, but you help. Socks don't protect my heart. I can still get foot fungus from socks. I wish I could go back in time and commit to being abstinent until marriage. That's heartbreaking and not just because it's embarrassing his wife but because Michelle's socks don't protect my heart. It could be the funniest phrase. was ever delivered on this show and we didn't write it and that kind of message can be enormously harmful to anyone who hears it, especially sexual assault survivors like Elizabeth Smart, who was kidnapped and assaulted at the age of 14 and You might recognize one.

Of the metaphors she remembers one of her teachers using, she said: Imagine that you are a piece of gum and when you have sex it is like you are being chewed and then, if you do that too many times, you will become an old piece. of chewing gumand who's going to love you after that well, that's terrible, but no one should say that, but for me I thought, oh my god, I'm that chewed gum, learning nothing would have been better than learning that it's not a great reflection. about her teacher that the children who were sick that day received a better education than her and the sad thing is that sex education, when done right, can do a lot of good, but when done wrong, it can cause real harm.

Take consent. A recent survey found college students. They were confused about certain aspects, for example, when asked if another person undressing, obtaining a condom, or nodding had established consent for further sexual activity, at least 40 percent said yes and at least 40 percent said no and that ambiguity is a problem because sex is like boxing. if both people didn't fully agree to participate, one of them is committing a crime and abstinence-laden messages don't help, they spend so much time on the importance of saying no that they may leave out what informed, enthusiastic consent looks like or even something worse. suggests that everything is one party's responsibility, like in this video from a show called sex smart about how to defend yourself against unwanted advances, maybe we should have sex, you know, to show our love for each other.

Do you really think we're ready? Yes, I am ready. Oops. that didn't work out for each other no that means no or yes one more try this time say it like you mean it for each other no way finally maybe we should go to the concert wait wait they were already late for a concert but he felt there was still time to have sex that's a teenager with a very precise sense of his abilities but but much more to the point here much more to the point it's good that that girl They were teaching her that she has the power to say no, but in Nowhere in the video do they point out that that guy should have been much better at listening to him and it's strange to overlook something so awful, it's like that moment in Greece when kaniki sang, tell me more, tell me more, did he resist?

That is the point. They should have stopped the whole song and left. Wait. What did you just say? What's the matter? Kenickie. It's OK? You are a monster and you look like it. 40. and when kids graduate high school without a full understanding of consent, it creates an already worrying gambling culture where a group of frat boys can march through Yale feeling completely comfortable shouting just a quick reminder that the Yale's acceptance rate is 6.3 percent, so who are they rejecting? I'd hate to hear his chance and the problem is it's not an isolated incident last year. The Texas Tech and Lsu fraternities were caught using the same slogan.

It has become something heard on college campuses as often as I do. thinking about changing majors or why is James Franco here and here's the thing: there is no way we will allow any other academic program to consistently fail to prepare students for life after school and human sexuality, unlike of calculus, it's something you really need to know. for the rest of your life and maybe you and your family live somewhere where there is good sex education, in which case congratulations, but if not, this video is for you. Nobody ever said that being a teenager is easy, you have to face a lot of things. of important decisions, but no decision is probably more important than the one you will make about becoming sexually active and if you do there are some things you should definitely know this is a penis this is a vagina this is a mouth this is a hand and this it's a butt, you can mix as many of these as you feel comfortable with your hand and mouth, it would be weird, but you could, this is the clitoris and these are the testicles, they make sperm, that's it if you want to be abstinent, okay if you don't want to be abstinent that's fine too abstinence is like being a vegetarian people should respect your choice some people might make fun of you those people are the best safeguard against STDs it's protection unless you already have an STD in which case I'll go to need medicine or some curious information.

The ancient Egyptians put crocodile dung mixed with honey inside the vagina to prevent pregnancy. Now they are all dead. This is how you put a condom on a banana. Oh, this has a lot less curves than I'm used to. This is an IUD. An IUD goes inside a woman's body and prevents pregnancy from occurring. They can stay inside you for up to 10 years, which is a lot considering most kids in high school can only stay inside you for a minute or two at most. here are a bunch of other forms of birth control, google them, this is really simple, if someone doesn't want to have sex with you, don't have sex with them if you think you could persuade someone to have sex even though I don't want to don't do it so if you are not sure if someone wants to have sex with you ask them even if you are sure still ask if someone is quite drunk they may not be able to consent and remember you.

I can always say no, even halfway you can say no if someone wants you to do something sexual that you are not comfortable with you have the right to refuse say I don't care if it's your birthday rebecca I don't want you to do it Put your finger on my ass, okay, tell me, this was talking about this couple of things real quick, the last things that most people will get HPV are technically true and what you tend to hear right before someone gives you HPV, if you You call hoo-ha, you are. you are not ready for sex lube is your friend believe me if you have the chance to have sex with this man do it the best safe word is babysitter a woman who has had sex is not like a dirty shoe a woman who has had sex is like a completely normal shoelace and finally this is important if someone ever tells you that having your period makes you better at bowling
