Sex ed sucks...and doesn't deepthroat

Here's my main concern about sex education classes:

I find that the approach especially to the anatomy is very cold. The classes are basically there to tell people the latin names of body parts and their function. Any other information is gained through experimenting yourselves. Yet, we constantly blast kids with messages that sex is wrong, dangerous and 'serious business'. That's completely ridiculous.
In bullet point format now:
- Sex ed. gives girls no insight on their own bodies. Some women can spend their lifetimes trying to understand truely their body, and sex ed. can definetly only make them more confused about it.
- Our bodies are felt with our 5 senses, so why wouldn't we teach using these wonderous tools of ours? I think we could understand the body better by explaining the feel of it then the fucking horrible cut-in-half anatomy chart does.
- Also, our senses are two-fold, to make us enjoy the things that surround us and to warn us of imminent danger. In this case, they can be quite usefull, both usage here.
- How can we possibly consider sex a more adult and mature subject when we can't even properly and comfortably educate others on it?

On a side note, I wrote an essay on this last night which I had every intention of publishing. I ended up pressing the wrong key and lost my work. So I re-wrote it but in an abreviated format, when I clicked the 'publish' button, the server crashed and my work was lost once more. So I apologize for the lack of continuity and detailed explanations. It seems that when I have to re-communicate three times the same subject, I tend to not feel so enthusiastic about it.

Yes, agreed re: communication. When you have to re-write something it's more of a thorn in your side and it seems like you can never write it quite as well the 2nd time.

About anatomy diagrams, I always felt weird looking at a cutout of a dick. To me, it never really explained anything of importance to me. What does it matter if I know the functioning of all the valves and the Cowper gland and shit like this. Who cares?

I suggest field trips to the strippies ! :D As for my own anatomy, well, I don't know about you but I've been exploring every square inch and every hole since my first bath and I lost interest in most of them a long time ago :D.

Yeah, I figured out at a pretty early age that rubber duckie up my asshole wasn't as pleasurable as Ernie and Bert made it seem...
