I've taught sex ed, before. In my view the following needs to be part of any sex ed. curriculum:
1) Anatomy of the sexes.
2) Biology involved in inpregnation
3) STD's
4) Birth control
5) Pregnancy and STD prevention
6) Relationships
Gay sex was not part of what I presented...but then again, neither was heterosexual sex. The only reason I presented penis-vagina intercourse was in the context of pregnancy. When discussing STDs, all types of sex, vaginal, anal, and oral were discussed, but not in the context of whether they regards homo- or heterosexual sex, since this point is irrelevant.
Sometimes point #6 would bring up discussions of straight or gay relationships. If it did, I would foster a discussion based on what was presented.
So, the answer to the question is both yes and no. The presentation of the types of sex should be presented in the proper context, but the labeling of gay or straight sex is inaccurate, since both types of pairings can perform almost any of the types of sex identified. Gay relationships could be discussed under the auspices of relationships in general.
