Sex education in Kindergarten?

[The Union of the West]

Are you serious?

Yep. I can put a pic online tomorrow if you want.

Please do.

[Kistan]

Already in an uproar.
My father brought it up in a school-wide parent's meeting.


And yes, they had uncensored content.

I believe it.

I don't really need three slides of a slideshow to focus on foreskins.

Really? Its ineffective? Explain to me how I can get an STD without having sex.

Teaching abstinence in schools does not prevent teenagers from having sex. It merely ensures that when they do have sex (which is statistically earlier than in places where sex ed is taught), it is unsafe and at much higher risk for pregnancies and STI transmission.

Go on about chastity and saving it for marriage and all that lovely nonsense all you like - you can even hold yourselves up as the paragons of virtue that you apparently are - it doesn't do anything in the real world to lower transmission rates, teen pregnancies and ignorance about sex.

Simple as that.

[Anachronous Rex]

I was unaware that 'better' means 'completely and utterly ineffective at solving the problem in the real world'.

Good to know, I guess.

HPV you can get form mutual masturbation, petting, sharing a toilet seat, or swimming in an improperly chlorinated pool.

It's a virulent motherfucker.

[Autocratic Jiedushi]

To say that schools cannot distinguish between evolution and creationism is literally the same as suggesting that they must regard alchemy on equal terms as chemistry.

I know I do.

[Ramenasia]

A school that tried to show anything pornographic would get an uproar from parents. Not buying it.

Then clearly there is a lot more wrong with your school than just a mere case of "Librul agenda". It means some teacher at your school made a mistake and should face the consequences. To say that this isolated incident is part of a wider trend across the nation is ridiculous.

When I was in tenth grade we had health classes in which we were made to watch movies of people with syphilis and gonorrhea. Sores, blindness, no hair, horror.

What effect did it have?

Our small city continued to lead the state in the rate of teen pregnancies.

So all girls (including my mom e_e) and everyone who bathed in ponds of small rivers has it?

Yep, already got it. >_>

It's a virulent motherfucker.

I'm glad I don't mutually masturbate, then!
On iPhone now, so don't expect quick responses.

First two are sexual. So yea that's not a good arguement. Last two are about cleanliness. Not a problem for me.

I don't even care about chemistry.

Heck, I don't care about any exact science other than biology.

No. But you could have it. It's possible to transmit it that way, just not very likely.

However, if you've ever had sex:
"HPV is so common that nearly all sexually-active men and women get it at some point in their lives. This is true even for people who only have sex with one person in their lifetime." -The CDC

Interesting. Sex ed definitely works.

I share my toilet seat with my mom for a few years and she was sexually active so

So your solution to how to curb an epidemic of an incredibly virulent pathogen is - rather then giving people the vaccine that exists and protects against it - to tell teenagers to engage in no sexual play whatsoever?

Yeah... that'll work.

An anecdote is not equivalent to a nation-wide study of sexually-active teenagers.

The statistics don't lie, regardless of what you claim about your city and 10th grade class.

Waaaaaaay too personal there, bud.

Bad sex ed is not the same thing as good sex ed. And good sex ed is better than bad sex ed and no sex ed at all. Stop playing hard to get.

Interestingly enough, the concern over it came to be in the seventies, or around that time. A company developed a cream — if I remember correctly, it didn't work — to treat genital warts, and suddenly it was an issue.

You've never used a public restroom?

It doesn't matter how often you shower, you know? It only takes one exposure. It's just a matter of odds.

Don't see how a fact of life of everybody may be personal but fine. lol

Note as well that he's also stopped responding to the posts of mine and TS' that had well-supported data in them.

The odds are still in your favor if you're under 20.

You almost certainly do have a HPV, but not the genital HPVs.
