Do any of you remember when they taught you in Sex Ed?
Did they talk about STD's and pregnancy? What to do in serious situation like if you got pregnant or got an std? Do they teach you about the emotional side effects and such?
Just wondering, I took it a long time ago, i don't remember!

I jsut took it the last few monthes of school. They talked about std's, pregnancy, how to deal with peer pressure to have sex, how to control your homones to have sex.
we pretty much just learned...DONT HAVE SEX! With peer pressure, just say no and if your bf keeps pressuring you, dump him. Pregnancy will ruin anybodys life who isnt married. STD's dont ever go away and they make you die early. In a situation, tell an adult. But the only way to get out of a situation is to not have sex.

Maddie! I haven't seen you around in ages, hope you're well :) I think it's taught too scientifically and not realistically enough - it seems they forget that they are talking to *teenagers* I think they need to break it down to the simple things and try and relate more to the emotional side of it. But I also think, if teens want to have sex, no matter what sex ed, parents, teachers, friends etc say, they are going to find a way of doing it. Sex ed doesn't have an impact on people's decisions most of the time. I have to add, that it does seem to be taught differently in every school and in some schools it's not even compulsory - I think it needs to become compulsory. My school had a good way of teaching it, they didn't use stupid videos from the 80's, they didn't use diagrams explaining "what's what" and they didn't preach abstinence - though I went to a catholic school. My school always made it more fun, they had the cool teachers who every loved, taking the classes, and the teachers allowed for talking, laughing, discussion in the class, which made everyone more open to talk about how they felt on the subject or what the issues were and things like that...and the teacher would go from there. Though most people took the sex ed class as an opportunity to catch up on lunch times gossip and it hasn't had much of an effect on the now 17/18 year olds, I have to say, I only know 2 teenaged mothers, neither of whom went to my school. There has not been a pregnant teen at my school in the last 7+ years. :)

In my sex ed class the basically focused on the physical side effects and what not. They really didn't get into emotions at all.

yeah i remember. through 6 and 7 grade but they didn't really talk about how you would feel emotionally. and they didn't talk about oral or anal sex or stds really. most of the time we watched videos, filled out sheets for grades, and reviewed over definitons.
