I think schools need to concentrate on getting math, reading, social studies, and biology right instead of which hole to stick it in.Which side are we on? We're on the side of the demons, Chief.

Sex Ed:
Yes, sex ed is vital. It's focus shouldn't be on teaching technique for pleasure, however, it should be on preventing pregnancy by teaching about contraception and helping teens protect themselves from STDs.
While pregnancy isn't an issue for gays, STDs certainly are, and therefore any responsible sex ed class will include a discussion of homosexuality and ways in which gay men and women need to protect themselves during sex.
I wouldn't expect such a discussion, however, to occupy any more that 7-10% of the curriculum of a sex ed course.
Not educating teens about sex and its consequences is, IMO, tantamount to being an accomplice in the problems of teen pregnancy and STD transmission. Only a fool would assert that teens don't need to be educated in these matters.Tutto nel mondo è burla

So do you have any scientific proof anal sex leads to some sort of climax in that area? If so share, after all. I made a statement about the whole thing refuting che. Its not up to me to prove it. Other than a bunch of porno testimonials love storys.
Heterosexuals trying tell gays what they do and don't experience during sex...how silly.
BTW, there is a sizable number of heterosexual men who enjoy being on the receiving end of anal penetration. The "Bend Over Boyfriend" porn series is quite popular. Sex columnist Dan Savage devoted a series of columns to devising a name for it when the female straps on a "device" (not sure if the accurate name is kosher here...), and gives it to her male partner.
The readers voted and arrived at "pegging."Tutto nel mondo è burla

Vesayen, you're an ethiopian Jew? cool dude
Are you Israeli too?
If so where from?
About the mods banning you - why not send him an email and tell him to read and realise you were joking?
On Topic:
Well in Israel it's as follows:
Early classes - you're taught about child making and conception.
Mid classes - you're taught about STDs and how to prevent them, Pregnancy and how to prevent it.
Mid-High classes - you're taught about sexual identity and so on. And about STDs again...
Actually, we already had two lectures (one each year) from a gay who works at a support hotline and helps people with AIDS.
The lectures talked about sexual identity and STDs.
Asides from that we have sexual identity support and activity centers in most community centers.
Our school is half-private and has a community center as part of it. It has a special section for helping young sexually unsure kids.
Our school is part of the liberal reformist movement though, so I'm not sure if the standards are the same everywhere.
Anyway, we are also obliged to do community work several years in highschool and one of the possibilities is working with gay people, or about gay rights and so on.
So I'd say we're pretty open.
Oh yeah, and this year, IIRC for the first time, a gay-parade was held in Jerusalem, two weeks ago.
It goes on in Tel-Aviv every year for a long time now.

No, but most of my familly has emigrated to Israel in the last 20 years(my imediate familly is still in America, except for my sister). My parents might move, but im staying heh, as much as I love God, I couldnt stand to leave America.
Yes......they are SO anal retentive its unbelievable, and even if a mod IS wrong, the head mod NEVER does anything because he dosent want to "rock the boat", so many moderators, and the head moderators became corrupted that all the good ones, and most posters have long since left..... I did send him an emailing, waiting for a response now.

Look, the way I see is this:
90% of the population have this disease called heteroitis
5% of the population have this disease called gaybies
the remaining 5% of the population have a disease called sexophrenia
If I can find a way to fit this in with the thread's topic, I will get back to ya.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

At my highschool (a Catholic one), we were taught basic stuff about preventing pregnancies and not getting STDs. But of course due to the Catholic church's policy, all references to condoms were crossed out with thick black markers.
Ironically, the condom references were the only parts of the 5 or so pages that they handed out that everyone read. Talks much later in highschool were based more on reality, but didn't really mention homosexuality/bisexuality.I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

I had a mother who was very approachable and taught me in a sensible honest way as part of everyday life.
A good starting point is the book titled "Where Did I Come From?" We had that readily available to assist with explanations in our household of two girls and eleven boys. I acknowledge that some people are embarrassed discussing this subject with their children but I also believe strongly that it is a parent's responsibility to discuss it with their children, no matter how embarrassing the parent may find it.
Frank and open discussions with my mother gave me a balanced view of sexual relations and I hope to continue to impart knowledge to my children with the same degree of caring, it makes for a close relationship in later life when you can discuss something so personal with a parent.
I sincerely believe that sex should be treated as a normal part of life. The basic facts should be understood before children begin school or other formal activities. This way there are no breeding grounds for myths and misinformation.
