not knowing a lot about sex, and being sexually active Options

[yupimchuck]

it really frustrates me to see a lot of young girls, or even guy, being sexually active, or having sex,
but not knowing anything about what theyre doing.

for instance, i have a friend
who had sex her first time, didnt use a condom and took the morning after pill because she was paranoid,
had sex the next day and no condom
she freaked out and took a pregnancy test about a week later, and then another


and asked me if she could go to the doctor and if they could stick their finger up her vagina and see if she was pregnant or not?

she also asked me if you could get pregnant from dry humping....


i mean, are you kidding?


i relaly do wish people just learned about what they were doing before they started doing it.

what are your opinions on this?

im sorry this is really confusing topic ot me and i really am unsure how to word it

i just feel like people not being knowledgeable is what causes teen pregnancies, abortions, stds, and "accidents"

i agree, more sex ed classes in like middle school. and parents shouldnt be able to opt their kids out of it (how stupid is that?)

we had sex ed type classes in 5th, 6th, and 8th grade. 5th was more about puberty and so was 6th (never got the reason for it two years in a row..maybe cuz not all the elemetary schools did it differently? And 8th grade was like, look at all the STD shit you can get from having sex! and they gave us a baby to carry around for 2 days..actually, we made it.. but it was just like whatever.

and then when i changed school districts i had a class, Healthy Living (which you can take whenever during high school..you just have to take it.) and we did a unit on relationships and sex and stuff... but it was really stupid and i didnt learn much from it that i already knew. and the stuff that we should be told, that i already knew, wasnt covered..
