Here's the thing though. If you're going through all the trouble to teach about safe sex practices because you know it's inevitable that the kids are going to be having sex anyways, you should teach them how sex can be enjoyable while teaching them that it's okay to say no if someone isn't comfortable with something and that things that they will inevitably see in pornography isn't necessarily the "right" way to have sex. If two kids have nothing but hardcore pornography as their guide, what do you think they'll be trying to do? It's important to make the distinction between "healthy, pleasurable sex" and "hardcore f**king".
No I don't think that is a good idea, I mean how would you begin to teach it or test wether the lessons had been learned, it's simply an unachieveable idea, the idea of being
"good in bed"
Is a completly abstract set of skills that no individual or even several teachers could cover the spectrum, I think it would simply regiment sex where it would be better to simply let them do a little bit of self-exploring.
Imagine the British version teaching kids that is common courtesy to wait your turn in an orderly queue when engaging in a gang bang.

I was thinking yes at first but then I thought of how awkward it was to have the teacher sit there and talk to you about sex in the first place, not too mention how awkward it would be when he says, "Alright guys now we move on to the pleasure zones of the penis. You'll want to know these spots, techniques and positions so that your partner will know how to please you. I hope everyone brought their penis today. Alright now take it out and we'll get started."
All things aside I don't think they should, because like you say OP sex would get kind of standardized and it would take away all the fun of exploring.

No. That would be like teaching how to drive fast in driver's ed. Or how to get acclaim for other people's work in business school. That is to say, that is something people will figure out on their own.
Wink wink, nudge nudge.

That's not what I had... I had the scientific video with drawings of people with the bodily organs mapped out, and then a couple years later, a far more disturbing video about an anthropomorphic condom telling us of the dangers of unprotected sex.SirDoom said:
Personally,no. Let them figure it out on their.
They need all their time and effort on what it does and the dangers of it, and try to get these kids to AT LEAST wear a damn condom.

An explanation of how the stimulation works might be in order. Not as bad as my teacher announcing to the whole class that sex education was her favorite part of the class.
Now, I think she was trying make seem not so bad, but back in 9th grade I didn't need to know that.

Circumcised men can also go longer during sex, pleasing their partner mores. I think that counts for something. Though is this thread going to turn into another circumcision thread, really? We've had enough of those.Donnyp said:
As for the thread: No. We have a large amount of teenage pregnancies lately, why encourage them? Besides, can you imagine how awkward it must be for 11 year olds during sex ed, anyway? Now we'll encourage them when their hormones are starting to act up by saying "it's damn good."
Unwise, very unwise.
The answer to all those questions depends on where you're from.Thundero13 said:
It's not a regular subject though. It's just sort of inserted (snicker) into biology or health class or whatever once in a while. That is, it's more like a one-off class, but it comes back a couple of times.
I think I had my first sex-ed class when I was 11, and then I had a couple more between 13 and 15.
Oh dear. Oh dear. I'm now imagining my sex ed teacher talking to us about it and I am now scarred for life. I say no, just to save kids from having crazy old ladies teaching them about sex in that manner. Regular sex ed with that lady was scary enough.
I don't see why not. I mean, I don't know about other countries but here in the UK it's not like it could make any MORE people have sex below the age of consent than already do. Sure it will embarrass some people to talk about it in that much detail but overall I think it will be beneficial overall. It would certainly help a lot of people who would otherwise be nervous that they would have very little idea of what to do for their first time, and if people are more confident and more clued up it will be better for everyone involved. Although, as well as teaching a variety of different techniques it's also crucial that they learn that there are no hard and fast rules as to what works and what doesn't, and that they have to find out what's best for the person they're with at the time for themselves.
As nerdy to the extreme as this will sound I made sure I did my research before my first time (and by that I DON'T mean I watched porn, because a lot of the time that's not a very accurate source), and looking back I thank God I did. If I hadn't I think I would have disappointed myself just as much as the girl I was with at the time. But instead she refused to believe for several days afterwards that she was my first, because she thought that no-one could be that skilled on their first time (for the record I did try to word that sentence in a way that made it sound like I wasn't bragging too much, but anyway...)
So based on my own experience, the better educated about every aspect of sex (within what's legal anyway), the better sex will be for everyone.
