Once again, Heartstopper handles a topic that could go wrong in a number of different ways and manages to do it in a way that doesn’t shy away from the realities while very much remaining Heartstopper. It doesn’t sensationalize teenage sex but remains respectful to its characters. I think the character of Nick says things that a lot of teenagers actually feel but can’t verbalize as well as he does. And once again we see in this episode the character growth in Tao, this time in the way he helps Elle move on from the unhappy experience of the radio interview.

Really really agree with you on the issue of sex ed! It's pretty good in Sweden where I'm from, and it's been good for a long time (I'm 41!), and one of the best things that happened in our class (we were 14/15 I think) was that the teacher forced everyone to ask at least two questions about ANYTHING sex ed related (anonymously, on tiny notes of paper), and then proceeded to read them and answer them to the class. It had to be serious questions but could cover topics like body and puberty, sex, relationships, etc. She then burned all the notes in front of us 😂 Will always be grateful for this aspect of Swedish education, and the teacher who was so so smart about how to approach something teenagers need but are very very scared to talk about. Oh and also, of course, love your reaction as always!!!

Oh I love the discussion of realizing how your identity falls into politics... has been politicized. I remember so acutely that moment for me. I had a class in school when I was 14 where we discussed modern political topics. At that time same-sex marriage was not legal where I lived... I did not know that until that day. And over the course of that class I sat and listed to my peers misquote the Bible, and say vitriol and hatred. I realized people my age, my classmates, people I considered friends hated me, who I am. It was... a terrible class, but eye opening. I'm thankful that who I am as a person isn't one to internalize that. I knew I wasn't wrong, they were. But, knowing there were probably other quite queer kids also slamming the closet door on themselves who were likely more hurt than I was, that really breaks my heart.

The way this show models clear and enthusiastic consent, healthy conversation and emotional openness is so heartening- it never feels forced or didactic, instead it’s gently educational and will really have a transformative effect on young viewers, I believe.

Sadly, I've seen sex-ed go backwards in my lifetime. We did ours when I was in the ninth grade, 14-15 years old, back in 1997-98, in conservative Little Rock, AR... and I can honestly say it was pretty damn good (comparatively). It was totally through a heterosexual lens, but all things considering it was a million times better than the current curriculum. It took place during our mandatory Health class, and we had a specially trained teacher come in and teach use for at least a week (but I won't to say it was two weeks). We'd already done lessons on personal puberty in the 5th grade, I want to say (10-11ish years old), so sex-ed started with a recap of that material and built on it from there. We talked about all the standard biology, the process of inception and child birth, etc. Then we moved on to talking about STI's, non-vaginal sex (mostly oral and mutual masturbation with only a passing acknowledgement of anal), contraception available at the time, safer sex options, and how to talk about sex. Like I said, it was still geared completely to hetero sex and had an implicit "you should wait until your married" bent to it... but all in all, I consider us very lucky to have had an actual attempt at education. I really wish the current generation had at least the same lessons I had at that time.

I’m in Australia and never even got contraception education in sex ed…granted I unfortunately went to a catholic school…I also have a clear memory of one of the boys in my class asking if masturbation is a sin and being horrified when the teacher said yes 😅🤦♀️ I so hope one day in the near future kids will get education on different types of sexualities - it took me until my mid 20s to realise I was on the ace spectrum after many googling attempts trying to find a word for what I felt! At least for now they have Heartstopper ❤

I think there should be an approved online course that a student can watch and interact with in private that deals with sex. It can even be more specialized for straight sex and gay sex and everyone can educate themselves with already fact checked information

Problem with asking teens to google six ed is google does not distinguish between good six ed and terrible six ed, some of which is probably just prawn. (intentional mis spelling 'six' and 'prawn' because YT has very fickle comment moderation).

He is not putting off UNI. Nick is just finishing up his Year12. He has one more high school year to go (Year 13) (He'll turn 18 at the beginning of Year 13. ) As I understand it, people send in applications in the autumn of year 13, then take their A Levels. Nick is not slated to start UNI until the year following that, the September of which he will turn 19.

I think you are overestimating the quality of sex ed that can happen in a classroom - teacher speaking! School is not the only/best place to learn everything
