This is a very interesting topic, and one I want to throw my opinion into. First of all it was brought up early in this topic (I don't recall who) that sex ed was something people didn’t want to teach. I would love to teach sex ed! My MS was in sexual biology (of shrimp, but shrimp are randy little bastards). I would love to teach a college level course on human sexual biology.
I am completely in support of public sex education. I agree with dissidents that it isn’t being taught well, although for probably very different reasons. People need to know how their bodies work. That should be done in a very scientific and very graphic way. They should learn about disease prevention. They should learn about reproductive control. They should learn about gay, lesbian, bisexuality and transgender issues. They should also learn sexual dos and don’ts within our society. The number one aspect of the latter is respect for individuals in our society
Yaro: Your adherence to the promiscuous thing might be considered intolerant to the poly/swing community. Since the early 90’s the swing community has prided itself on disease control and safe sex. The promiscuity definitions of randomness and lack of selection do not apply. A participant in a swinger party may anticipate promiscuous sex but the participants are select and disease free and wearing condoms.
Robinrohan: You can search online for the statistics of teen pregnancies before and after the 1960’s. The pill doesn’t compensate for the numbers. Search for abortion rates in 1890. Search for drug addiction rates in 1920. Outside of popular press releases society has sucked (and been great) since it started.
