Sex Education, your experiences.

[CarpathianMuffin]

For me, it was mostly "Don't have sex or else you'll get pregnant or your penis will shrivel up, and you'll get every STD ever while doing it, even with a condom so don't have sex at all" talks.
Really, I taught my history class more about sex with yelling out "Sodomy is butt sex, people!" than I never learned from the sex ed program. Then again, I slept through most of sex ed.
Either way, it's pretty sad.

 

[Blindswordmaster]

I have no idea what you're talking about, I've repressed that shit so far down that I don't think any therapist could make me remember. I mostly learned about this from porn(mechanics) and talks with my parents(emotional factor).

 

[Something Amyss]

I already knew about sex. My parents weren't ashamed to answer questions. Sex Ed taught us reproduction, condoms and STDs, but none of the mechanics.

Students from England (year 6ish) will probably recognise this phrase:
"Some of your bits aint nice"

 

[commandersqwigly]

We had to watch a video of the lower half of a black bear vomiting a dozen liters of chili and a human fetus.

Oh wait, it was called "The Miracle of Life"?

I havnt laughed so hard in ages. I thank you kind sir.

OT: Was the same crap I already knew.

 

[crazyguy668]

due to a combo of a teacher getting very sick and a video being lost, i never had sex ed. i kind figured out what went on by myself(through adult shows, but not like porn)

 

[Ciran]

After my fifth grade video we had (which wasn't really sex ed as such, but more of a video on entering puberty) I pretty much researched the rest myself (yes, I was incredibly precocious), so sex ed was mostly useless to me.

 

[thylasos]

Half an hour with dreadful seventies film when I was thirteen. Never before (Catholic school), and never again (I think it just embarassment on the part of the teachers). A couple of lessons looking at gonhorreated penises. Not terribly informative, really. Not fit for purpose.

 

[khaimera]

Learned all about it from my then friend at the time. We worked together, she was way hot, and sort of slutty, and 21 when I was seventeen.

I learned much that night.

In school you ask?

Never went

 

[Chunga the Great]

Like many i had "studied" what it was like long before they started......but we will see what this years class will be like.

 

[fearofsleep]

a song giving general information sung by a sperm cell, and the chorus was "you put the penis inside"

 

[smurf_you]

I learned nothing in sex ed... I knew it all from my parents cause my mom was a young mom (having me at 18, so you know I got the whoe "MAKE SURE YOU'RE SAFE" speech) the only part that was remotely funny was my very very very gay teacher trying to explain about what happens if - and I quote "it goes in the wrong hole" I kid you not..... I have never seen a human being turn to red before, or since...

 

[TheDudeMan14]

I had it from 6th grade to 9th. It was mostly pointless, they should just tell kids "use a condom, don't have sex with alot of people" Pretty basic stuff.

I never got "the talk" either. The closest I got was my dad telling me "soon, you and your friends will start making fun of each others dicks..." when I was 11. He was right.

 

[FallenJellyDoughnut]

Mine was basically just explaining how all the anatomy worked, a brief warning on STDs and how to put on a condom. also, for the dipshits they explained that you can't get pregnant from oral/anal/other shit. Frankly if you hadn't made that connection already you were an idiot.

It did the trick, I know how it all works now. In retrospect my Sex Ed was way better than ANY of yours. Jesus Christ don't they teach you the basic anatomy? Its all just "MAKE SURE YOU ARE SAFE!" "DONT GET ESS-TEE-DEEs!" and "USE A CONDOM!" Surely that just leaves the kids asking "why?"

 

[Thunderhorse31]

My earliest memory of sex ed was in fifth grade (NY public school), we had a "question box" where people could anonymously write questions for the health teacher to answer. The very first question she pulled out, she read and said "Uh, I think that question is best asked of your parents" and then threw it away.

Of course, when no one was paying attention, I snuck out of gym, ran back to my classroom and pulled the paper out of the trash. It said:

"Is it possible to pee while making sex?"

I laughed pretty damn hard, but I never got a chance to ask why that would be such an inappropriate question to answer. Is 9-years-old too early to start discussing water sports and golden showers?

 

[DrScoobs]

We saw pictures of std's and birth (cannot be unseen).

And the kids would ask the most stupidest questions

"what does sperm taste like?"
"If I bend my penis like this, would it break?"

um... we watched some videos of a girl giving birth then put a condom on a thingy...
we also watched a video of a person ejaculating (BONUS)
the rest is a blur of boredom...

We never saw ejaculation or putting on condoms.
What is the point of seeing a guy ejaculate anyway?

well it was kinda like a behind view of the bloke so we got his fat arse in our face and then we just saw the *ahem* liquid come out. I have that vision permanently burned into my retinas.

 

[Durgiun]

If there was sexual education in my school, I either forgot about it or I didn't attend. Eeverything I know about sex I learned from the internet. Various sites, Wikipedia etc. Too bad I still haven't put any of that shit to use.

 

[Phlakes]

We had to watch a video of the lower half of a black bear vomiting a dozen liters of chili and a human fetus.

Oh wait, it was called "The Miracle of Life"?

Oh, I remember "The Miracle of Life". I don't know if we watched the same version (ours was pretty old) but the main parts I remember about it were: infrared vision of an erection, sperm-o-vision (what a sperm would see as it is going through the penis, pretty sure it was the real thing), a penis ejaculating in a vagina, the different stages of a fetus, and a women giving birth.

That's the one. And the thermal penis was a bit too much. I don't think anyone needs to learn how hot penises get.

 

[Betancore]

We had 'family life' in primary school, but it was more about puberty. We do some kind of sex-ed class every year, and since I've attended all girls' schools since year 7, it's a little more bearable. At least you don't feel so embarrassed. I've watched way too many videos of women giving birth, and now I never want to reproduce.

We also had to put condoms on bananas. I snapped around four and gave up. We then all sat at the back of the classroom, blowing them up like balloons. And I think to make us understand the consequences of STI's, we had to put on little performances in which we had to pretend we were telling our sexual partner that we had an STI. Our performance went something like 'Hey honey, I'm home. By the way, I have herpes!' I'm pretty sure that everything I know about sex came from practice, not theory.

 

[JimJamJahar]

I've been taught about menstruation more times than I even want to remember. I think we had one hour dedicated to actual sex and that was mostly watching a hilarious cartoon that we weren't aloud to laugh at. We never learned about relationships, STDs or any of that stuff, which was really bad when we had a test on it a few years later and nobody knew any of the answers.

Earlier this year, feeling that I needed to expand my knowledge, I watched the Sex Education show on Channel 4. It turns out that failing that one test gave me all the knowledge I would have gotten if I had just watched the show.
