Sex Education Beyond the Stereotypical Views

Even in 2019 the conversation of sex, sexual behavior and sex education remains a taboo. The importance of a comprehensive sex education goes beyond the point of students having sex, but allows for understanding of sex health, sexual abuse and many other topics beside putting a condom on a banana. A comprehensive sex education program will educate youth on healthy sexual habits and the importance of consent which in recent times has been a large issue. The conversation of sexual abuse, assault, sexually transmitted infections and diseases needs to be had so our kids can be prepared and more willing to talk when situations do arise. Schools should not only have but require comprehensive sex education programs to inform students that whether sexually active or not, sex education is in a way a preventative measure which creates an open dialect for students to understand their bodies and protect them. Comprehensive sex education programs should be just as important as a student knowing how to add and subtract because sex will affect many children before they even know how to add or subtract.Sex Education Beyond the Stereotypical Views
