This is odiophra. Neither condemned nor commanded. So what I ask is "Is sex education a good idea?" The conclusion I reach is no. It supports things many find to be repulsive and immoral, is relativistic and servees no purpose in a school. It should not be in the curriculum, thats a joke. To say that lteaching how to put a condom on is useful so Pete can put one on and bang his girlfriend/boyfriend is good thing, whereas making standards higher, requiring more math and more science to be mandatory and actually look at someone's SAT score and grades before letting them pass is "wrong" is ludicrous.

2. It lowers the amount of unwanted pregnancys. 3. If Pete can't put a condom on then he is more likely to make somebody pregnant by accident and more likely to transmit STIs. |
I dont get that...was that Stad trying to be sarcastic? Or was he being serious?

Stats about "education" lowering pregnancy? Where did stats go, Here stats, stats, stats, don't hide, show yourself! You know its really odd, but stats usually doesn't show himself around here often, especially when stats is mentioned. What friggin' stats!

(2) - Hey...thats the same conclusion i met with the above!! (Surprising enuff!!) (3) - The people who find it 'Repulsive' and 'Immoral' are the people who cant get any and when they do its missionary style all the time. They may also be old...since sex was a 'taboo' subject in the past. Also thats fecking ludricous...wot retard thinks its 'Immoral'!! let alone repulsive! (4) - If you had my family you would be thinking diff...my family never taught me about sex...thankfully i had skool and my frends to fill me in. Do u kn0 how embarassing it is to not know what 'Shagging' is when your in yr 4 upwards!! (5) - Freak. (6) - Im glad you are. (7) - And if that kid 'Pete' didn't put one on he would either get her pregnant or catch something. Its a good thing to teach this, although most teens know EVERYTHING about sex from a early age...such as myself. And what do you mean by 'Making standards higher'? Science shouldn't be mandatory, maths should however. I will explain later...i am tired and need alkohol...goodbye |
Frikkin' aye! I'm a freak! Well, i refuse to go haywire and call you a bunch of names, that only takes me to your level.
|
Statikk does have a point though, although I wonder if I'm correct in determining what his point may be.
Is it possible that sex education encourages children to become sexually active earlier? I'm sure it certainly raises a student's curiosities. Personally, I don't think high school students should be sexually active until the last two years of high school - at the earliest. |
:
Also, I'd think not telling people about it makes them more curious. I myself am more curious about things I know the term of and nothing else. *shrug* - TyA |
:
And children will hear things from their friends and will know a little about a subject. Tell them everything and they won't be curious enough to have sex to satisfy their curiosity. |
Something like sex can hardly be thrown in the same barrel as "every other subject". I don't think curiosity about sex is something that subsides merely when one is told about it. If a class is taught about chocolate; it's flavour, history, methods of production, etc, it makes more sense that they will want to taste it. Simple descriptions wont be enough, I'm afraid. Your logic doesn't seem to work here, Gluk Schmuck.

(2) - Tell the kids who are overly 'active' that. (3) Those times have been burnt to sinders since Satan wrapped his cruel claws around the childrens hearts and burned their innocence out of them... I was in yr 4 when i can actually remember it coming into convo. I dont think it was full scale sex talk but i remember talking about it odd times. Then more in yr 6 as we learned what 'Virgin' meant and sex was a sorded thing that had to be laughed and sniggered at. Then yr 8 were i sat with a group of lads and lass' talking about it (Cant divulge th0...id get banned) then more and more. Now im in yr 11 its like "Yeh...sex...sure id like it. But i aint too bothered about it." Others however still have a mental age of a yr 6 and think its sumat to be laughed about etc which is sad. Really, sex ed doesn't provoke early sexual activity. It has been said teens are hitting puberty quicker and peer pressure is one of the biggest things. That and alkohol. |

Statikk's point seems to be that, since certain people would be offended by Sex Ed, it shouldn't be taught. I think that this is the wrong way to reason here. There is nothing immoral or offensive about sex, and those who believe that there is are the ones who are most in need of education about it. As far as "encouraging teenagers to have sex" goes, I am going to have to go out on a limb here and say that I don't think that that is necessarily a bad thing. I'm not saying that it's a good thing, but I don't think that sex in itself is ever a bad thing. The bad things are disease and unwanted pregnancy, and children are told about the risks of these and how to overcome them in Sex Ed. In fact, I don't believe that Sex Ed encourages Sex at all (whether or not that would be a bad thing). In my experience, Sex Ed lessons are very clinical and purely informative. They don't make it seem exciting or fun (it's learning about it in the playground that does that), it just teaches them how to do if more safely. |
I agree with Syd's hypothesis, but my main point is Don't these damn kids have some learning to do? You drill the kids, you test 'em, you do some fun entertainment shiznit in between. That is the way I'm comfortable with school. Schools should be about learning. Now, you can argue about the real value of sex ed., which I believe to be absolutely zilch, but that ain't the point. The point is, kids have more important things to ponder and learn
|
Statikk, could you please point out the post where somebody said that learning things wasn't important? I'll save you the trouble of answering, because there isn't one. You've just taken a reasonable proposition that none of us disagrees with, and used it to defend an unreasonable and unconnected one.
Kids have many things that are important to learn. Sex Education is one of them. Would you kindly enlighten me as to why Sex Ed and Maths (for example) are mutually exclusive? |
:
That's how I understand it. If it applies, "You've just taken a reasonable proposition that none of us disagrees with, and used it to defend an unreasonable and unconnected one." does not. Just pointing it out. *RUNS away from the crossfire* - TyA |
I see no reason why sex ed is so hyped. It is quite pointless. Look at who started this absolute craziness, Planned Parenthood. Who as I understand teaches this philosophy, "Before you have wild, wanton sex with as many partners as you can, always put on the magical condom. You know, the thing that was around when Lincoln was president, won't stop a pregnancy every one out of every ten times, offers very little protection from many diseases and so forth. And if the might latex savior, the condom, doesn't work, have an abortion. I mean, all you have to do is pay us for one and we will gladly perform one for a low cost.
Come on, we need to perform abortions after sex ed falls flat on its face. If we stopped performing abortions we would go out of business. How do you think we make money? With sex ed? Are you out of your mind?" |
