Definitely. If people don't know what's out there, they don't know how to protect themselves and with STDs, that could lead to an disastrous epidemic amongst the sexually active.

Any decent teacher wouldn't be blabbing about the sexual habits of people to students.  Sex Education isn't about teaching kids how to have sex or who to have sex with.  So if it's a gay, professional teacher I wouldn't have a problem with it.  However if it's the type of gay person who talks to students about the things you mentioned, I would hope this person would be fired, regardless of what classes he/she teaches.  I would want a straight teacher fired for the same reasons.  Most of all I would hope that most parents are doing the responsible thing and making sure their kids are getting the right information about sex at home.

can i suggest you develop a need for education and choose another country to live in for a while. as for being that shouldn't be a problem, even back in the days of lawrence there were male-male relationships

Nothing's wrong with teaching about safe sex, especially if you scare the crap out of younguns so that maybe they'll wait a bit.\n\nNothing's wrong with having sex, either, as long as it is between 2 consenting adults.

For. If you are able to do it then you should learn about it. And sadly, even wayy back when I was in school, there were always some that did it. I had sex education in the sixth grade.It didn't hurt me at all.

Sex education is important and kids need to learn it. I do agree however that the whole education system has gone wonky! I also live in Australia and it disgusts me how little my partners daughter is learning in the key areas. She had the same homework for 6 months and when I questioned this with her teacher she took out her anger on the child! Remember though it is better that kids learn sex ed than not at all!

Gender exclusive schools, (some academies or finishing school) offer a more focused environment. Since teens and beyond is also the time most young adults become interested in sex, removing the temptation is helpful.

sex comes with a responsibility, in case the worse happens. You need to be ready and fully matured for that. You don't have to burden society. To check this, I guess an age limit was set, and any activity below that age was made illigal.

No, my dear, this is not true. Sexual relations are not a requirement for life. Granted a healthy sex life makes a more balanced and happy person but it is not going to kill you if you don't have it. \n\nIt is not like water, food and air.

Y.A. seems to be a pretty effective venue for STD education.  There appear to be a lot of young people here, and variations of the STD question are asked frequently.  The anonymity offered here seems to make it 'safe' to ask the taboo question.\n\nWord of mouth can be a very powerful educational tool.

Education is important.  If you feel that you are happy where you are at with your education, then by all means get out and play girl!  Just remember relationships do take time and work, and if you can't split the time between school and playing, finish your school and then play....

yup!\ninformation dissemination regarding sex is necessary for students. such can answer questions that they would otherwise be too awkward to ask their parents or adults.  it can also correct the possibly distorted information they get from many sources including their peers. moreover, by providing them with information, they can be more responsible with their sexual behavior.  \nthe impact of irresponsible sexual behavior includes many other things including risks of sexually transmitted dieseases as well as unwanted pregnancies.  pregnancy in teenage women is much riskier than that in women in their twenties.  moreover, there is this study that shows that infant mortality is lesser with mothers who have some kind of sexual education.

Education...start with kids early. The family must be involved. Take the mystery away from sex and be open and honest about how this terrible disease is spread. Kids start having sex earlier than parents want to admit, and they have to face that fact. So, the parents must be educated, as well.\nFree condoms should be offered to teens, if anyone is sexually active, they should be taught the importance of having physicals every year, and being checked for the virus. The importance of abstinence until they really know their partner should also be reinforced. But in reality, we must realize that probably won't happen.\nI feel education is our number one intervention and should be started as early as children are able to understand.

Huge debate there... not sure where to start.\n\nPros:\n-Educates the masses about STDs.\n-Educates the masses on reproduction and general knowledge of health issues and care for ones reproductive system.\n-Takes the stress off of the parents who may feel too embarrased to discuss with thier children.\n-Offers relief to those who wonder if the changes they are experiencing are "normal".\n-Helps remove the shame western cultures have towards sexuality.\n-Demystifies controversial topics like homosexuality.\n-Give a third party the opportunity to observe behaviors in the student that may suggest sexual abuse.\n-Educates student on safety issues.\n\ncons:\n-Does not (and should not) explain moral issues.  This is the sole responsibility of the parent, not the government.\n-Does not give the parent the decision of what time is best for thier child to be exposed to sexual topics.\n-Does not (and should not) cover religious issues. Also the sole responsibility of the parent.\n-Invites curiosity in the students which might lead to experimentation.\n-Introduces students to topics that parents may not approve of, like homosexuality.\n-Depending on the maturity and psychological state of the student, could create fear or anxiety.\n\nMy personal opinion, I am pro-education on all topics.  My only request is that the schools let me know the curriculum and agenda so that I can cover the topics with my child first.  She should understand our families moral and religious views before she is introduced the topic by a stranger or government employee.

It should be taught in school that the act of sex is sacred and should be considered a very special moment between a man a wife.  Kids that young are too imature to completely understand how complicated it is.  That is why the school systems/governements shouldn't be giving out birth control, or saying it's ok if you get pregnant and want to have an abortion.  What ever happened to suffering the consequences of making bad decisions?  That is how you grow as a person.  It's ok to make mistakes if you own up to them.  The solution is to not make sex seem like such a casual thing, so that young people don't find it so acceptable. There is still hope.
