Petition to revamp sex ed!
Permalink  
 


Hi guys! It's been quite some time! I may be getting back into the swing of watching and reviewing loads of Nicolicious movies again! Anyway, I came across a petition I really agree with and I thought that Lulu and Eva and some of you others would agree with the sentiment... we shall see!

Anywho, it's a petition to revamp high school sex education to include LGBT(QA) issues, feminism, as well as abuse in relationships and consent. My sex ed. at school consisted of my form teacher telling all the boys in the class about he and his scout troupe had "ravaged" a group of girl guides. He later made an embarassed and reluctant female student play 'Just a Minute' on the subject of masturbation...

Basically, it seems a bit bleak that boys in particular are getting most of their sex ed. from online porn and teen frat boy movies and I think that can mess masculinity up at a young age.

So, here's the petition:

How was sex. ed for you at school? Did you have to watch the famous educational video "Some of Your Bits Ain't Nice"? rolllaugh

Whoa Sprocket it's just something little but I'm really happy you thought of me for this too :D

I defenitly agree, I have some things that weigh against but mostly I sure agree!

Myself I watch often when it is on tv the sex education show. It is still interesting and I still learn things. At my school, at least for the ones who do ethics like me it is also very spoken about especially now in fact, about the sexualisation of the world and sexting. 

I must say I think I was a little too young informated by my mother, so the age this is something difficult ot discuss on, how young this should be talked about, but in highschool I think it is sure a go!! I am happy at our school it is informated good, and in a funny way sometimes. On aids day we if we get sometimes condoms (No amtter if you are first or last grader) and there are posters in school about it.

At the other hand I think it should not be to overacted. Because then it can have exactly the oposite effect. Myself I have recently felt disturbed after one class we had, were things were showed so explicit, somewhere mayeb good to shock, but for my feeling too much and too overreacted. Also it must be in a way to prevent when it happens, not to make it happen. 

(Sorry as I now have seen many sides of this I just wanted to share my ideas and knowledge ^^)

 

But I am sure for this.. Thanks for sharing Sprocket :).

And on what you say indeed, I agree. Maybe not that it is only boys but much indeed, they think these is the standard of a normal relationship and in those vids oftenly showed it is very unrespectful for woman and there is no problem that people like this but for young guys it gives them the idea that this is how to treat a woman in reality! It is a problem not able to be fully solved, not much is, but the least that can be done is try to reach them by more education in this.
