Bias toward Straight Kids
Sex education teacher automatically assume that all the people they are teaching are straight. For teens strugling with their sexuality, being told over and over "your girlfriend/boyfriend" only enforces that they are not normal. Abstinence teacher need to start using the term "partner" instead of assuming everyone in their class is straight. A girl in our girls only sex ed class was clearly a lesbian and our teacher would only use "boyfriend," and she would laugh each time. she told me that "I'm not worried about getting pregnant, but that class is bullshit." Pansexuality is real, so be courteous.
"Imagine you're a stick of gum. If you get chewed a lot of times, you'll be an old piece of gum. Whose going to want you after that."
"She samshed a cookie on the ground, covering it with dirt asking, 'Who wants cookies now?' No one said anything."
Slut!
Boys are treates as though they were animals who could not control themselves. Typically, if they had sex, they weren't treated like they were in danger of anything. If he gets a girl pregnant, he's just told he "should take responsibility." But outside of class, he's a player and the more action he gets, the better. In class this behavior is never touched because as the saying goes, "boys will be boys." Because who cares if a guy has sex? He has urges while girls don't even have sexual desires and if she does, she's a slut. Plus teenage boys have a weird obsession on finding out why girls finger themselves, so what teacher is really going to go into teaching them any better? Well, good ones will.
