My early sex Ed was a book my mother picked out from the library. It was horrifying. It said that a married couple would get pregnant by bathing together and the sperm swimming from the man to the woman. I was terrified to go swimming.

Actually telll the truth for anything!

100% on MDJ’s comments about how religious people can communicate waiting until marriage to have sex. I’m religious, but when I was about 9 years old my mom (an L&D nurse) gave a very thorough and accurate explanation on sex and the reproductive system. She then provided some age-appropriate reading material for me to work though on my own, and was always approachable for questions. I never had an issue with waiting until marriage, but I was also prepared for my life as a person with a uterus! I really don’t get why some people think kids will have sex just because they learn about it.

You are so right. Kids can get experimenting without any knowledge of what can happen. Some think that if they are not married, then they can't get pregnant. Also kids really need to no boundaries and consent. They need to know that if someone touches or grabs them in private places and areas that they should yell NO and run to get help from parents and safe adults. It has been proven that children with the proper understanding of sex, they are less likely to get pregnant. If they don't know how it happens, then they don't know how to stop it.

[@THandP_org]

May I ask which county? There were a group of us who fought Jesse Helms, hard, to get better sex ed in the 80s, when NC was in the peak of its AIDs epidemic. Wake County, Orange County, Forsyth, and another half dozen counties (10 total, I think Buncombe was one, can't remember the rest) changed to evidence based sex ed by 1987.

I’ve heard of the super rare occurrence of the ovum being released and fertilized before it even entered the fallopian tube and for whatever reason, decided to forgo entering the fallopian tubes all together, setting up shop outside the uterus via implanting on the outside of an abdominal organ like the spleen or something. Of course, this poses a whole host of health risks for the mother and the developing fetus, and if carried to term, the fetus can’t be delivered vaginally, so a c-section has to be done.

my daughter went through a phase when she was around 6 (classic freudian genital phase) where she would straddle the corners of sofas or matresses & rock side to side. she called it wiggling and i just told her that she can't be doing that around other people, that's private bedroom behavior. i was literally in high school before i even found out what a clitoris was, much less that girls could masturbate (i thought only boys could because no one ever talked about girls masturbating) and i don't want my kids growing up thinking they need to resort to sex in order to satisfy those urges for pleasure.

People seem to think that young children shouldn't learn about their bodies, but surely learning about it is better than being confused and ashamed. I think it's good to have gentle conversations about it, and to know that it is natural but it is private bedroom behaviour, as you put it.

[@katiekane5247]

Kids are able to understand it being okay & private. I think young girls suffer because unlike boys, they're not encouraged to touch themselves at all. Just teaching a boy to pee standing up let's them know it's ok to handle themselves. Girls are more prone to use objects to rub on. My daughter was in pre-K when a couple of the kids learned to rub on their mats at nap time. The teachers excuse for not liking it was "it made them sweaty". I explained that the teacher likely sweated when she masturbated too, but it wasn't a public activity. Silly reasons for discouraging uncomfortable behavior created confusion for kids.

As someone who had to monitor & then answer questions after the 4th & 5th grade sex Ed questions, this video is fantastic!! We had 2 separate videos. One for boys & one for girls. 4th grade watched the same sex video, 5th grade watched both. Then the kids were given index cards to write out questions… & we read them aloud anonymously. In this school, a Title One school, some kids knew way too much for their age, other knew absolutely nothing… & they always had tons of questions. Lots of parents were not involved for various reasons. A school district nurse was very limited on how she could answer questions. I was not. I answered honestly at the levels that they needed. I knew these kids, their parents, their home lives & what they needed.

Fun animal fact: There's a species of whiptail lizard that's entirely female and reproduce by self-fertilization, laying eggs that hatch into clones of the mother.

[@Nevertoleave]

Some species of fish will mate with the males of closely related fish species but their young are all clones as well. Some species of snakes, lizards, and apparently some birds (at least California condors) have also asexually reproduced. A KZbin channel, Snake Discovery, had a snake they raised, who was never paired with a male because they think she’s too small/young to breed yet, lay eggs this spring. I think there were some duds but a couple looked fertile so hopefully in the next few months there’ll be some babies with a sole parent in their care

When I was in my Senior year of HS, my friend showed me a pet Stick Bug (like the one from the Pixar movie Bugs Life). I loved it so much (I've always liked bugs) and he let me keep it. I named him Steve. Well, about a year later while living with my then boyfriend (now husband), I went to check on Steve one morning and saw little lines all over his glass cage. Upon further inspection, they were moving and looked just like Steve. I run to my husband and say "honey.. Steve is a girl stick bug!". Turns out they are actually asexual and clone themselves. When cleaning their cage, you're suppose to put the bottom dirt in the freezer for a month to kill the eggs before throwing it away so you don't cause an infestation. I don't think Steve caused any infestations at my local dump, but after him I had 2 more generations before they all died out. This is one of my favorite stories to tell 😊

At buch of species do. Some other can reproduce by self fertilization, but reproduce sexual most of the time. An shark species can do that. There is a funny story about an aquarium. One female shark, and she lived there for while. All of the sudden, a baby shark appeared. No one knew why, turned out, yes that species can reproduce asexually, but it is rare. Still funny though. "Greg, why is there a baby shark?" Greg: "uhm what??" Shark mom: I don't need no men

See, as a theater kid, I’d like to point out that Spring Awakening warned us about providing inadequate sex ed and telling your kids that they can only get pregnant if they love the other person a while ago. The main character is told that, then has sex with a boy she loves (it’s left unclear if she consents to it fully), then gets pregnant. At the end of the show, she dies when her mother forces her to get an illegal abortion that ended up being botched. Scarred (in the best way) from that musical. It’s especially profound if you see a video from the Deaf West production, which has disabled actors in the main roles, as disabled people disproportionately have our reproductive rights stripped from us

Specifically the mother says baby making happens "only between a woman and her husband" so when wendla finds out she's pregnant she goes "but I'm not married" and the mother says "exactly!"

[@dietotaku]

yeah i appreciate that this explanation is factual without getting too explicit, but i'd have to tell my kids that no, you don't have to be "in love" to have sex, it is literally a simple mechanical process of "penis in vagina." of course it's a GOOD IDEA to refrain from sex until you're in a committed relationship and even then you need to use birth control so you don't get pregnant before you're ready, but plenty of people have sex without being in love and sadly sex can happen without consent as well, and pregnancies can result from those situations just as easily.

[@cherylcrawford3581]

I find this hilarious. The "sex education" I got (in the late 60s) didn't even cover erections. I had such a misconception about how the sex act occurred that I didn't learn until the "Special Sex Session" of my freshman college biology class, where this "S-cubed" lecture had to be presented after hours, and optional, because of the state laws of the time. (They specifically couldn't present sexual physiology!) And oddly enough, even in *medical* school, we had to deal with similar rules. We had optional classes that covered transgender surgery, sex in the disabled, homosexuality, and other subjects that weren't specifically anatomy, "disease" related, or "medication" related. Only about 50 of my class of 140 actually attended those!

[@elisharoberts1029]

[@melissahauke8682]

My sex ed began from looking at embriopathology book my mom had, it was about animals but pig fetus looks really similar for some time and it was great transition to human reproductive system. My mom (graduated animal biology and farming studies) educated us very early on so I don't even remember when, I just knew since I can remember. No surprise I always loved biology.

[@junerussell6972]

You probably had better "sex education" than I did. I was given medical books (old ones my father had found) which unfortunately didn't go into any physiology information. Very confusing considering how the anatomy of the male and female are always portrayed. I asked my mother for more information and she *told* me to ask my boyfriend who was standing right there! (Needless to say, he was totally embarrassed. He gave me a fiction book which only confused me more. Then he broke up with me for being "too naïve".) School "health" classes (ie. sex education) only had the basic anatomy drawings and a lot of talk about sex resulting in sexually transmitted diseases (without any talk of prevention other than "no sex.")

My consent vs rape talk left me with the idea that if you're with someone you want to be intimate with you discuss it first. If it's not someone you want to be with, then they become violent and rape you. Date rape was a bit of a vague concept. So I'm slightly embarrassed to say that my first time happened without me understanding right away what that pain was. To his credit he stopped when I freaked out, but it was too late.

[@TisOnlyAScratch]

The first sex ed video I ever saw was one Disney ran at Epcot in 2000. I was in second grade and it was very interesting. It didn’t explain the physical act but did a nice job with the biology behind it. This one, however? Is kind of terrifying in how strange it is.

[@BeeWhistler]

Yeah, I taught my kids about sex pretty much the way you suggested for religious folks. See, my mom, despite being a registered nurse and having 9 kids, did not see fit to tell her youngest thing one about sex. Nothing about periods, nothing about safe sex, nothing about dating. I was never sat down to have “the talk.” She took me bra shopping but when I got my period I just started using my sister’s pads. I dunno what I would have done if I hadn’t had a sister 2 years older than I was. No notice was taken, no observation made, my mom clearly just figured I’d started mine at some point, probably because the pads started moving double time. It disgusts me to this day but she’s nearly 86… what can I say about it? But it would have helped, for crying out loud. The only excuse offered has been that whole “her generation didn’t talk about things like that” bs. Her oldest was a girl! Makes me want to ask my sister if Mom ever told her or if she just started sneaking Mom’s pads like I did with my closer sister. Anyway, I wasn’t even taught about “private parts” and bad touches… shame, since my best friend was being molested by her dad and I didn’t know enough to recognize it or tell an adult and that haunts me to this day. Her mom left him when my friend was around 11-12 so that’s something, at least she got her out of there. So with all that, yeah, my kids were gonna be armed with all the knowledge I could provide appropriate to their ages. And I made it clear why we believe in saving sex for marriage, but that at least you need to make sure you’re in a committed relationship and ready to deal with a kid because it’s feggin hard to raise a kid alone. I also added that teens start way too early and that’s not a religious opinion, it’s a personal opinion. When I look back at myself as a teen, I was absolutely not ready for something like that. It was a good thing that I managed not to stupidly get myself in over my head. Anyway, yeah, we talked about diseases and to never take your eyes off your drink if you go to a bar or a party (though I discouraged going to bars and certain types of parties, not sure why people think you can’t have fun unless you’re blackout drunk). And yeah, I discouraged drinking, ever. From the first drink, you’re surrendering your ability to make safe decisions and giving someone else either the burden or the opportunity to make some for you. Hell naw.

[@amandagermany5933]

I feel like as a kid I already knew how it worked. Not because I had parents that taught me but maybe a friend learned from their parents. Our sex ed was just menstrual talk and how not to smell bad during that time. With a lot of abstinence thrown in.

The school I went to didn't do any elementary age sex ed. However, there was a class in 4th grade about different types of abuse. I think the program was called Hands-Off Bill. Seems like that was only couple hours long. There may have been a video, but I might be confusing it with the PSAs that aired on TV during that time. This would have been the mid 80s. In junior high, there was the random puberty class. Which was basic things: Hair In New Places! And bathe and use deodorant so you don't smell! Freshman year of high school was the required Human Development class. It lasted half a semester. The sex ed portion was towards the end. We had egg babies and watched child birth films. It also covered STD/STIs.

[@mcrchickenluvr]

I guess I got lucky. When I was in 5th grade our school nurse taught sex Ed. We watched a series of videos that explained it like this video did. She also gave us time to ask questions and she didn’t sugarcoat anything. She sent notes home for parents to inform them what was going on in the class. She also asked if parents wanted to be in the class or the kids could take home a copy of the workbook we used. Some parents chose to not their kids partake in the class as those parents were either super religious and didn’t want their kids heads filled with whatever. Some parents also had tons of questions for nurse Meghan as they had no clue about some of these things themselves. Yeah, people in their late 20’s to late 30’s didn’t know this.

I am so old! in 1979, our "sex ed" involved the boys going into one class and the girls in another. No idea what the boys learned about, but we just watched already out-of-date videos from the late 60s, probably, Sponsored by like Kotex or Modess about how to use a pad. They gave a brief description of what a period was and how often they usually happened, but no real context beyond that. Almost no discussion of tampons, definitely nothing useful about sex or pregnancy, just "use our product to feel fresh and clean!" We had it two years in a row with the exact same videos for 10 - 12 year olds - 4th and 5th grades. Back then, most girls got their first periods around ages 12-14. I think it's not that way any more - both my friend's daughters started their periods at age 8!!

They even sent us home with little booklets talking about the usual, oh-so-scary, stranger-danger rape scenarios, and basically pinning it all on "being irresponsible" if you were a girl.

My sex ed wasn't as bad as it could have been, but videos like this really put into perspective how subpar it was. My school never even touched concepts like consent or the actual way sex works let alone something like orgasms, like, at any age, so consider me blown away. We were taught about basic anatomy, the menstrual cycle, STIs, and that birth control existed (not ever how to use it) all with abstinence as the core of the teaching. Something along the lines of, "birth control is X% effective, but you know what is 100% effective? ~Abstinence~ Look at all the bad things that can happen if you aren't ~abstinent~. You don't want those things to happen to you, do you?" I ended up getting most of the actually useful information from Sexplanations here on youtube as I was very frustrated with the obvious religious influences in my education.
