Sex Education…?

At school we were made to watch a video called Johnny Condom (sad thing is you know who ever came up with that thought they were hilarious and down with the kidz) in which a huge pepper puppetry condom, called Johnny, interviewed and gave safe sex advice teenagers (of course words like sex, intercourse, and shag were neve actually uttered) and if this wasn't cringy enough it ended quite oddly with a CGI penis (I seem remember while shooting an uzi in some sort of pu shot out) yelling
"Cover me Johnny I'm going in"

Hilarious

Erm, not really sure actually. Our sex Ed back in the day, was very analytical - “the penis is inserted into the vagina” et al

Probably, again back in the day, that homosexuality/ bisexuality is a mental health condition that needs a form of medical attention.

Oh and I also recall there being one thing going on about stretching your old boy and using various techniques- some guys had trained to the point where they were using bricks to weigh and stretch them!

I can't really remember my sex education, I think we had one lesson along those lines and that was it. Ffs with our biology lessons I probably left school knowing more about the sexual reproduction of plants and animals than I did of humans. Sex was, I think, still a taboo subject at that time, only discussed in whispers and crap diagrams. My real sex education came from the usual fumbling with the girls, but hey it was a fun way of finding things out.

Yes you're right there - germination and plants etc. Biology..
Comprehensive was zero.
Aye, teenage years and figuring everything out was alright like

Growing up on a farm the mechanics of sex were all around !
And as far as sex ed went my dad threw me a packet of three inner tube thickness Durex, and said don’t bring your trouble home ! ! !

I don’t remember having any sex education from school or from my parents! Except the obvious about making sure you use a condom.

Self taught all the way for me I believe is not been a problem

We had a cartoon shown to us in primary school, it was shit. And in secondary school we had a whole lesson involving putting condoms on bananas.

The best advice was from my parents, my mum especially. She gave me and my sister's these kid friendly books, they included these little fairy/bug things that would be dotted around the pages narrate what was on the page & talk about things like hormones, pubity, sexual thoughts, dreams, masturbation, etc. How to be safe and so on.

Must say, all sex was pretty disappointing until after I was 21

Mine was shit until 26 and even then it wasn’t no where to where it is now. I’m still learning even now. A few months back I messaged hubby on here to ask him something that had concerned me for years and I couldn’t say it to his face. He educated me daily xx

Sex must get better with age.. Just like fine wines yes?
I still have so much to learn, and look forward to it.
That's so good to communicate & ask Qs
Xx

I am still learning now and have had to ask people on here about something they have put. It’s nice to learn new things though xx M

This is another reason why I love this lifestyle. You try things you might never have known about, you wat h people in clubs. Life itself becomes one big sex education lesson! Everyone has different methods that you may never have tried but just never say never! lol xx

I don’t remember a great deal but a couple of things stand out:
Sex Ed was usually about the mechanics, all very clinical with the scientific names.

In middle school, we watched a video and all I remember was the very start...the screen was black and then suddenly there was a close up of a baby being born. We all felt pretty scarred after that but it was definitely a good form of birth control.

Outside the classroom, I remember secretly catching my dad watching porn on the computer and being shocked but very curious so started looking myself. Plus, I remember fooling around with a few guys.

As I get older, I get better at saying no - it might seem weird but that’s a really empowering thing for me. I’m still not brilliant at it but for so long I thought I wasn’t doing it right unless I’d made sure the other person was satisfied regardless of what I may have wanted.

Xxx

Awww where is the hug icon when you want it xx

Mmmm...none when I was in school. Quick look at the biology book and a nudge and a wink with your mates.

It was those naughty 5th year girls who led a shy 3rd year down the road of sin and boy loved the ride. Joining the army opened my eyes in more ways than one and again the naughty sergeants wife who walked around in stockings and suspenders when i baby sat was a true life Mrs Robinson.

Still learning and thats the fun xxxx :0)) T

I have found that as you get older you get more comfortable in your own skin and less over analytical of your actions and desires. Its kinda strange that when you are full of the vigours of youth you are less confidant and cant fully let go and explore your sexuality , but then once you are fully comfortable and able to experiment mentaly then your body is starting to age/decline so you cant be as active physicaly as you could when 18.
Bloody nature and evolution trying to stop the sexual revolution.

Really great to read that you are getting better / more confident in getting what you want from sexual experiences That is a brilliant mental space to be in. Respect! xx

Like many people here, I had minimal sex education growing up. Science book P.273 on human reproduction, covered by the teacher swiftly one afternoon in 3rd year at secondary school (age 15!) when it was the first page everyone had read in first year.

My real life sex education CV looks like this:
Age 7 Encyclopedia diagrams on reproduction etc!
Age 8-14 ish: porn of the paper variety; Eurotrash on Channel 4
Age 15 ish... the era of internet porn begins (included a few embarrassing internet bills)
Age 19: real life experience begins at uni (late starter!)
I consider this era to be my "secondary school of sex education"
Age 34: I discover swinging! The "university of real life sex education"
Every day is a school day
