hm. my school basically taught that sex was evil and horrible and unnatural...unless you were married. they mentioned condoms in passing, but only in the regard that, yes, some people use them and if you must have sex, you should too...but then you were going to hell anyway. given that i learned about periods though a video that used some crazy pancake metaphor, i'm suprised im sexually competent at all.
then, of course, i came to college where they pass out condoms like theyre candy.
basically i dont understand why theres so much debate about this. sex isnt something that should be learned about through trial and error just because no one thought it was important to set down the facts. what was really appaling, though, is that georgey spent nearly a billion dollars to essentially spread ignorance, rather than using it to, i dont know, save the trees or the homeless or, god forbid, those kids who ended up riddled with stds and unwanted children because they were taught abstinence.
this completely clueless girl, we'll call her jane, was at her friends (lets call her karen) house for a sleepover. as luck would have it, jane got her period! so she starts freaking out, but karen was like, "oh, dont freak out kiddo. my mom knows all about this stuff, lets go ask her." so they go ask mom. naturally, as happened in all these crazy videos they made us watch, mom was extatic. she was like "ahhh janes a woman! jane, arent you so excited that you have to bleed out your vagina every month for the rest of your life!! lets celebrate!! im calling your mom to let her know!! im telling my husband!! yes everyone is so excited!!!!!" after this bout of excitement, jane still had absolutely no idea what the fuck was going on. as fate would have it, karen's dad was making pancakes for breakfast. being creative, he decides its a good idea to make the pancakes in the shape of a uteris, ovaries and all. then mom, in an attempt to really get the point across, takes the strawberry syrup and shows poor jane what
( ... )
My mom gave me the sex talk when I was about 13, but as she's really pro-abstinence she really didn't teach me about stuff like condoms and stuff. Just to wait till I was married. Luckily, my school picked up where my mom left out. So I was taught what I needed. Actually, the best sex ed I got was from reading Cosmo, but that's a different story.
If my school hadn't taught me about condoms and the Pill I imagine I would be pregnant by now.
