Gender Biased Sexual ‘Education’ is failing everyone.
Things girls are taught in Sexual Education:
-Basic terminology of female genitals and reproductive system
-Anatomy of male genitalia
-About menstruation
-About Pregnancy / Contraception
-About STDs
-Myths about Hymens and ‘virginity’
-Abstinence only
-Guilt
Things boys are taught in Sexual Education:
-Anatomy of male genitalia
-Basic terminology of female genitals and reproductive system
-Wet dreams
-Why sex, masturbation and ejaculation feel good.
-Hormones, pleasure and why they will crave sex
-Oral sex (fellatio)
-How Pregnancy happens
-Myths about Hymens and ‘virginity’
-STDs
-Abstinence is better
Why aren’t girls taught about the clitoris, apart from the word being on an unrealistic diagram? Why are girls not taught sex can feel good, and about masturbation? Therefor not teaching girls it’s ok to be aroused, how arousal works, that it’s normal and healthy to want sex and to enjoy it? Therefor continuing to make womens sexual pleasure weird, shameful, perverted, dirty, uncommon or non-existent? Why are they taught to be the moral and responsible gatekeepers of sex? Why are we teaching girls more about how sex works for boys than for themselves? Why aren’t we teaching girls what their genitals actually look like, how they can differ and that they aren’t all flat, white and have the clitoral hood tucked in- and that thats ok? Why are we making girls responsible alone for pregnancy? Why are we not teaching girls about consent, peer pressure and about how to communicate their needs?
Why aren’t boys taught about proper female anatomy, and that the in-out-in-out that feels great for them isn’t so good for women as there are almost no nerve endings inside the vagina? Why aren’t we teaching them about the clitoris and other sensitive parts of women when its ok to go into full detail about their own pleasure? Why aren’t they being taught respect and consent, and how to negotiate their needs? Why aren’t they taught about other methods of sex which aren’t penetrative that women can enjoy like mutual oral sex? Why aren’t they taught about menstruation, when women often get educated about everything sexually that happens to men?
Why isn’t anyone taught about non-hetero normative sex? Sexual problems and other health issues such as dysphoria, vaginismus? Why aren’t people taught about asexuality?
The average age to experience hardcore pornography is 11.
The average age for first sexual education is 13.
If you can’t see how that, plus an incredibly sexist, hetero-normative scare campaign of ‘sexual education’ is failing everyone- I think perhaps you need some education on a thing called reality.
//Edit: While I know this isn’t the reality for all children and all education classes: Please have a look at the majority of schools curriculum in the USA and Australia at least and it’s pretty obvious that the above is EXACTLY what is taught for the majority; in some states in the USA a lot less it taught (those things being pregnancy, stds and abstinence!) If you would like to check or debate those facts google is at your finger tips folks//
