I wouldn't have thought I'd be one of those mad women who don't let their kids go to sex education but I'd be strongly tempted if it was this detailed, if I didn't know that she'd hear it all in glorious technicolor and a lot less accuracy from those who've been in the class.

I have to ask, was it just that particular word he didn't know? I would have thought all 14 year old boys were familiar with ejaculating?

That's what I just said to DH. (I was reading him the OP). I would have thought most 14 year old boys were totally familiar with knowing what it is as well as experiencing it. :lookround:

Fuck sake, my "sex" education was all about periods, the thoughts of bleeding for a month every 2 days was enough to make me faint (I now realise this isn't physically possible)

What about "Felching" can't believe she didn't mention that,I thought all the young wans were doing that these day, sure while your down there "rimming" you may aswell :lol:

I'm peeing myself laughing, ds is 13 so not looking forward to this class, have just showed dh the thread and even he learnt something - I just told him not to expect me to act any of it out :blush: :D

3rd and 4th years.

Apparently it's a little more detailed for the 4th.

The whole programme is actually a piece of genius IMO. The kids are gently duped into thinking this woman is totally open minded about everything - the first class discusses orientation including bisexuality and transgender. Lots of stuff about communication and being comfortable about what you are doing etc. But the grand finale is the bit about STIs. She really doesn't present it as a "if you have sex your dick will fall off" but it's sort of the subliminal message. :biggrin: Well, not really, but if I'd got the talk when I was younger that she gives - I'm pretty sure I'd have avoided some of the not-so-good sexual choices I made. She gives them all the information and tells them to make the choices they feel comfortable making. If you saw the pictures of a vagina with syphilis/herpes/warts etc that she shows - you'd be crossing your legs until well after you left school. The woman is apparently a bit of a legend - her method is supposed to be very effective. Not all parents were impressed. One young, quite glamorous couple believed she was normalizing sex for teens but I disagree. I thought she was brill. I do think there's no harm though in discussing chastity outside marriage - some kids that age are very idealistic (if you're not idealistic at 15 when are you?) and I think it's good to teach them that they're not freaks for wanting to wait till marriage. Not every 15 year old is dying to have sex.

I went to a convent secondary school and we had very detailed sex education classes.

No mention of the "new stuff" on this thread but definitely told about e.g. anal sex....

We also had a huge amount of time spent on stds, esp aids.

And I left school quite some time ago (17 years ago-eeeeeeeek)) so I'm not really surprised that all of that stuff is being taught now.

I learnt about most of the newer stuff from MM :biggrin:

Think it's only right that they are told exactly what the truth about sex and sexual acts is. At least that way they are well informed and can make the "right" decisions for themselves and their sexual health. While I hate the thoughts of ds getting to "that age", I'd still rather him have all the knowledge from me, dh and school (especially of he is too embarrassed to ask us).

God times really have changed since I was in school - long time ago!!!

Oh the OP has really made me laugh, I can really picture this little old lady talking about sex and being totally unfazzed when ask anything no matter what;

"oh yes, dear, so glad you asked about rusty trombones..."
