Diane Schneider fired the money shot heard ’round the world’ when she asked how we can teach sex education (in public schools) without terms such as orgasm, oral sex, and masturbation.

In a front page story from the Wednesday Union Leader the group AIDS Services for the Monadnock Region has run into trouble. After a presentation at a local High School they offered ‘safe sex kits’ to students. The distribution approved by the school’s administration stopped after learning that flavored lubricant and candy were included with the condoms that are—dare I say traditionally?—handed out. Neither parents nor administrators were pleased by the message that “flavored lubricant” sends to 14-year olds.
The money shot, I’m sorry quote, comes from Monadnock School Board member Bruce Barlow.
“You can’t hand something like that to a 14-year-old boy and expect him to respond to it as an adult would.”
Seventy-thousand years of human history passed us by and somehow we missed this until now?
What Would We Do Without Studies Like These?
Riding in on the heels of the UNH/Hirshberg cow fart research we have other news from the research front of which is just begging to be made fun.
Someone has discovered that oral sex is a gateway drug to intercourse among teenagers. A three-year study determined that teens who have oral sex are more likely to have intercourse than teens who do not. And if you ask the Baptists they will tell you that intercourse leads to dancing, or was that the other way around?
“I see most of the health policies out there and guidelines for preventive services talking about sex generally, but they do not specify oral sex. That is an important distinction because teens don’t consider oral sex to be sex, and many are not aware of the risks involved,” Halpern-Felsher said.
So oral sex leads to intercourse and intercourse leads to unwanted pregnancy. Who is surprised? The experts, of course.
