Because schools are about education. Sexual education is VERY important, and something that parents don't always know how to teach is properly. So many parents just teach abstinence, which is NOT a form of sexual education. Look at states like Texas that teach abstinence-only sex ed; they have one of the highest teen pregnancies in the country.

sex ed is fine, learning about [i]sexuality[/i] is a whole different subject Max. Why do people feel the need to talk about homo, bi, hetero, lesbian, and trans sexualities within a sex-ed course? Sex-ed IMO should only be talking about human reproduction, and not because it is hetero or GTFO, it is because it would be a course about facts instead of feelings.

Because of all the illegal immigrants

I wish this was the dumbest thing I've read today...

The word "immigrant" isn't mentioned even once, nor is country of origin.

That's the best you can come up with? As a counterpoint, it's not even really relevant, given that the vast majority of illegal immigrants fall into one ethnicity. You could have just pointed out that no matter how you look at TX it's above the national average and that therefore the problem spans all classes of people.

You would have to be stupid to not agree with this statement.

oh lawd

My school didn't teach abstinence. But they didn't teach us how to lube up lol. Some people on this forum are proposing that. That's what I'm against.

While I agree that education [i]about [/i]sex and education on [i]how to have[/i] sex are very different, I don't see what's bad about the latter. I think it's a good idea to know what you're getting into. So much anxiety is involved with one's first time.

It's just a bit more awkward than it should be lol. It should be a video that you don't need to watch in a god damn class room (learning how to have sex). Make it a take home assignment/video to watch and learn, but that would be awkward to 'splain to mom and pop when watching a vid on how to have sex lol. *gasp* One could say the same about pr0nz lol
