Gay sex-ed

[Story]

I sometimes fell that the subject is taboo. And I also fell a little bit awkward talking about it with people who know little about it and are close minded.

Sex is a taboo topic in modern culture. It's actually why I'm upset, people need to get real and teach their kids about sex and being safe, the whole spiel about abstinence before marriage fools no one and is a poor excuse for not telling your kids. I get offended by this topic because I grew up in a conservative religious family and my understandings of sex were limited at best, so when I get an std from oral sex I'm confused at first then angry, I had almost no concept of disease transmission, no clue I could get stuff orally, hadnt even done anal sex yet, but my family calls me a slut and degrades me once they find out. Frankly my situation should never happen, people need to be educated and it benefits no one by pretending sex doesn't exist. It's even sad to see how often cases like mine appear, all because parents think that their religious institutions and school teach enough on the matter when in fact they barely scratch the surface..

Oddly enough, it was different for me.

Although sex is considered taboo, it's not so much here. We're not having sex in the streets or anything, but you certainly can learn quite alot from just walking down the street and maybe happen upon a sex store.

My cousin has owned her own sex stores for quite awhile, off and on though. I learned about sex from there, accidentally, especially after I had to ask what I just put in my mouth, which happen to be a big black dildo (go figure ) and later on a vibrator.

I was 11.

My mom is a very real person, which is where I get it from, and she taught me how everything works and what goes where and all that. She always told me, it doesn't matter who I like/love, that she'll love me anyway and once I got to be old enough, she got more into the gay stuff.

I was 13/14.

It wasn't so detailed as to say a penis goes into another guy's butt, but you need lube and whatever, but more or less a somewhat censored version, until I was 14.

I had just got into highschool at 14 when we had sex-ed. Other kids were a year ahead of me, so I felt behind abit.

Boys and girls were seperated and our teacher showed us all about the penis and STI's and even the prostate and all that.

Well, since young, I've been into everything and pretty much a nerd, so I looked stuff up, but not like how a teenage boy should have. It was more exploritory and to learn and that's when I connected the dots from what my mom told me and what I was learning in class.

We saw more graphic stuff in my third year, like vaginal infections and penile infections and how pregnancy works and all that (not actual sex, but diagrams).

I didn't learn explicitly about anal sex, but I already knew about it, not only from my mother's constant lectures upon confirmation of my sexuality (at birth I believe, but 15/16), but because my friend, who is also gay, had gone on his mom's computer while she was at work and showed me porn for the first time and wanted to try things with me, to which I refused.

We're still friends, but it's kinda awkward.

I probably learned in an unconventional way, but in the end, I agree that gay sex should be taught, because not everyone is like me and will not have the same experience I luckily had and might do something they regret.

I believe sexuality is being forced on kids anyway from all these big name stars, like Nicki Minaj(As much as I love her) and Lil Wayne, showing girls it's okay to be hoochies and objectify their body parts and for boys to become little thugs and treat girls like objects. Not to mention the blatant disapproval of being gay, clear in the messages of their songs, but embracing lesbian girls, as long as they get with a guy too. (Well, in the black world this is the case anyway)

They might as well teach it, since it's being taught anyway and atleast they can teach it the right way and actually educate the kids, rather than let them inaccurately educate themselves and wind up getting pregnant/raped/or whatever else.

I both love and disdain society as a whole, but to me, everything seems like it's flaws even have flaws. The biggest being society itself.

Well with more gay teens coming out more and more every year I am suprised that there isn't a class for Gay Sex Ed and perhaps someday there will be. I mean they could post something that says if you are interested in learning about sex ed that has to do with men with men or women on women then come to this meeting. I am sure that some schools that are gay friendly might already teach about homosexuality in school, yet it was fun learning about gay sex on my own, lol

There is mandatory sexual education at schools here in New Zealand. We got asked what chick we thought was more attractive. And there was a picture of a man in leathers and the guy taking the class said 'I'm glad no one picked that' I was so wanting to say I like that one. But I wasn't out then. It did piss me off somewhat. I would like there be gender studdies at high school level and for people to learn about sexuality and gender diversisty. Cos ther is more than Gay Straight Bi and Trans.

That was far too much to pay into the pot, QueenOdi... lol :biggrin: I'm sure 2 cents would have sufficed.

Wasn't too much for me either. Sex-ed was basically: Wrap it up or you're gonna have a kid.

There was some STD talk, but the only time anything gay was mentioned was in this video saying STDs could pass from Male to male, male to female, and female to female. There was a little chart with arrows. And that was it. You'd think it wouldn't in a 'liberal' state like California. But hey our gay marriage proposition got denied by like a few percent. So apparently we're not all that cool with people like us.

Luckily I had my good friend the Internet to help fill in the gaps.
