   The FAQs of Life - Sex Education questionnaire response 8  

  Sex Ed questionnaire response 8

   
  How did you first learn about sex?

  first heard the term sex when I was about six or seven when I saw an Oprah show that metioned it. I learned the rest from peers in middle school when everyone's hormones were raging and no one really knew how to harness those hormones.

 
  Do you feel the information you were given was adequate?

  Yes, because sex ed doesn't go very far, however I think that parents should be the ones to explain sexual ideals with their children.

 
  What do you think of the quality of sex education today?

  It's weak and doesn't really change any facts about people going out and having sex.

 
  Do you feel that the media's obsession with sex leaves nothing left for parents to teach their kids?

  Nah, kids see the media's saturated sex coverage, but questions go unanswered sometimes. Parents still have work to do. They are responsible for keeping their children safe from the serious responsiblity and consequences sex carries, and make sure they are ready for the decision to go all the way.

 
  Do you think that sexuality education should be treated differently for girls than it is for boys?

  Nah. Boys and girls are a lot alike- we both want to get off.

 
  Does the advertising of "women's sanitary products" on TV bother you?

  No. I am more bothered by ads that draw out the product (for instance the "as seen on TV" items) or local ads for local business... eek!

 
  How early, is too early to learn about sex?

  Talk to kids today at fourth grade- that way they know what's coming. Children at this age have not yet hit puberty, but are painfully close. Anything before third grade and kids will not truly understand the process.

 
  If you knew then what you know now, what would you do differently?

  Wow- if the ugly boys that called me ugly back in high school went back and said some of the things they said to be, I would back hand them and make them look like complete morons.

 
 
  If you had a teenage daughter and there was a book available which contained graphic information about female sexuality, orgasm, masturbation techniques - designed to teach them everything about their sexuality - while recommending the delaying experimentation with penetrative sex until of emotional maturity (and legal age) - would you let her read it? (please give reasons why)

  Sure, if she wanted to. I mean, I would let her know that if she had any questions about the book or its contents then to feel free to discuss it with me

 
 
  How did you first hear about exotic sexual practices such as fetishism and group sex?

  Real Sex on HBO really puts a lot of "rumors" out there and makes you realize that crazy sex does happen.

 
  Do you feel that the increasingly mainstream reference to these things is a good thing? (ie: Threesomes and guy's facination with Lesbianism being a standard punch line on sitcoms these days).

  Why not? TV is gravitating toward reality- people are sick of seeing TV of things that would never happen in a million years. If someone wants to talk about it on TV, then go for it. It exists, you can't hide from reality.
