I guess my experience in sex ed was a lot like Dutch's (minus the prostitute). I remember abstinance was treated as if it was this outdated joke.

When was this? Because mine was a piece of crap that didn't not mention condoms at all, did not mention homosexuality at all, and did not mention anything past this is a vagina, and this is what your period is. Oh, and an awkward assembly where the school nurse described the act of screwing to us. :lol:

Captain can correct me if Im wrong because I maybe but I believe he was referring more to you saying its bad for sex ed to teach "well we know you are going to do this anyway" and thats what he wanted addressed

but I could be totally wrong

Don't think so since I never said that. I think you are wrong on this one, Centrist.
 
X Factor said:
Centrist, I'm just saying, there's a fine line between teaching kids something just in case they have sex and teaching them they're just not normal if they fail to.

I get what you are saying and AGREE with you, i just think you are adding some dramitic spin to it because i dont believe thats going on? it may very well be happening I just seriously doubt it, i think its a dramatic talking point

but I do agree if any sex ed classes arew run like that its wrong

No there isn't. Comprehensive sex education does not push kids to do something that they don't want to do. It only gives them to tools necessary to protect themselves. Which is very important.

Well, that's a shame, too. I vaguely remember my sex ed class, but it was quite comprehensive, both from a biological, a social, and an options standpoint.

I don't know of sex ed programs who teach this, but if they do, I would want them shut down.

Absolutely did. You probably didn't see them because you turned tail and ran. Probably a good choice, as discretion is often the better part of valor.

Gee, that's pretty uncourteous, captain courtesy. You've proven nothing other than you really know how to make grand pronouncements of just how.........grand.........you are.



Your beliefs are not subject to anyone's approval. Doesn't alter that they are inaccurate and have no substantiation. If you want to have them anyway, you certainly have that right.

Says the guy who never provided any links to his "studies." I'm seeing a pattern here.

I'll tell ya' what. Why don't you get back to me when you actually have something to say other than "I'm really great, I know all things, and I win because I say so."

I had sex ed in 2001, I was in 5th grade, and didn't receive anymore sex ed throughout my education. There is so much wrong in that I don't know where to begin :lol:

That's just messed up. I had sex education both in 11th and 12th grade. And we are talking about 1980 and 1981. Your school system doesn't sound so great.

You guys had it good. I had sex ed in the 70's, which consisted of the teacher showing us a very undetailed line drawing of a vagina, saying "sometimes blood comes out it, that is normal", then showing a vague picture of a penis and saying "sometimes it gets erect". Then very vague comments about sometimes two adults have sex(with no explanation of what sex was) and sometimes the woman gets pregnant from it.

So says the individual who has been shown to be wrong, consistently. Means that your opinion is pretty much nonsense on this.

Nah, I think I'll just hang around, proving you wrong. You make it very easy to do so. All you have to do is post something.

No worries, Centrist. There's a lot happening in this thread and I know I've left some things unaddressed. Was there some point in particular you wanted me to speak to?

With sex education no, not at all, but I think that is just a by product of living in rural Georgia. The rest of my education was wonderful, and I had really amazing teachers.

its no surprise that you look down on normal debating and a person admitting they were wrong, then apologize to a fellow poster "X Factor" for making a wrong assumption about him. It just shows how obviously incapable you are of doing either since it requires HONESTY :D

The sex ed program in my school must have been WAY ahead of it's time. In 11th grade, we discusse the biology of sex, pregnancy, abstinence, and all kind of birth control. In 12th grade, we discussed the social and psychological implications of sex, relationships, abortion, and other things that had to do with the issue. I just figured everyone got something like that.

Rural Michigan. Teaching evolution and any sort of evolution was controversial there still.

I remember this. You started doing this in the other thread when you started getting beaten, badly. Started making troll posts. Probably a good idea for you to stop.

Yep, sounds like you had it good CC. I, and many others have to learn this stuff on our own, which doesn't bode well for people learning accurate information. There is alot of BS to sift through.

You and Your Star grew up in rural areas. I grew up in an upper middle class suburban area. Big difference in enviornments, which I'm guessing made a big difference,

Well, if that was what he meant, then I agree with you. I appreciate the apology. That's pretty rare. I don't feel it was necessary, but thanks just the same.
