Recent conversation I had with a middle school
SEX EDUCATOR from Fredericton (there was a group of us discussing when to start teaching sex ed):
Me: We really need to it teach this earlier. I didn't know what a dental dam or roofie was until my year in university.
SEX EDUCATOR:
What? I need to talk to you later (laughing)!
Later, in the ladies bathroom.
SEX EDUCATOR: So, what were those things you were talking about?
Me: blah blah.. I essentially explain, in detail, what they are for, where you can get them, how they are used, etc, etc.
SEX EDUCATOR: Right, so never leave your cup unattended, I remember hearing about that on TV.
Me: Erh, yeah.
On our way out of the bathroom.
SEX EDUCATOR: But, why would you need a dental damn for oral sex? You can't get AIDS from oral sex.
Me: Uhm, yes, and there is herpes, HPV, and a variety of other STD's and STI's.
****SEX EDUCATOR****: Oh, okay, I suppose.
AAAGGGHHH!! This, people, is why I need to get into this business!!!!!!! These people are teaching CHILDREN about SEX, and do now know simple method of protection!
*sigh*
