If you are a human being, you are going to find out about sex one way or another. We all think about it, talk about it, watch it on television - oh, and let’s not even forget the internet. So, sex sex sex… “oh, yes!” You mean, “oh, NO” because the high rate of sexually active people who don’t know enough about sex to protect themselves. So, where are the sex education classes?!Well, there’s DatCurious.com – even though some people feel this site is an ‘adult content’ site - but no, it’s just another resource to help with what this country lacks, ‘Sex Education’ classes.
The government, particularly, the Bush Administration, continues to push a failed abstinence-only policy, but people are still having sex. What makes matters worse is the fact that these people without a sex education, are forced to deal with the consequences of not being safe.
We know about unplanned pregnancies, sexually transmitted diseases and AIDS, right? Then how come there’s an enormously high rate of people that are newly infected with HIV?
No answer to that? Well, you’re not the only one. Try asking the current President of the United States and his administration.
Okay, maybe that was a cheap shot. But why are they still focusing on “preventing” people from having sex (which is obviously a failure), rather than teaching them what they NEED to know?
Check this out – “Future reporting from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention may show there are many more people newly infected with HIV in the United States than previously thought,” written by Sara Spivey, who wrote “Time to put the sex in sex-ed.” And according to a Times Article, “New estimates could reach almost 50 percent higher, ‘with 58,000 to 63,000 infected in the most recent 12-month period.”
Figured you guys needed to see some proof on how not having Sex Education classes can be a part of the growing statistic of HIV.
Sex Education is not simply handing out a condom and a pamphlet for people to be on their merry way. Sex Education should be taught in a class; because if you think art and gym classes are going to help you in the future more than sex education, you’re bound to find out the hard way.So yes, we can continue to preach abstinence but if that doesn’t work (again, ask the Bush administration), shouldn’t we also teach the seriousness on the topic ‘sex?’
Please note: DatCurious.com is intended to be a Sex Education class with a twist. A lot of people continue to label my site as ‘adult content’ which it shouldn’t be. This site is for anyone wanting or needing to learn about sex - especially the seriousness of it. And since there is a LACK of Sex Education classes in schools, my site is just one of many they should come to.
