The 'S' word

“The ‘S’ word”

There has been a lot of “awkwardness” when talking about SEX. For me, it is something very personal and sacred. More so talking about it in class. Educating young people’s mind about this sensitive topic has both advantages and disadvantages for me.

Us teenagers would know what to do and expect when the time comes when we will do it already. It will also help us be aware of the important things that we need to know to take care of our own bodies, for hygienic and security purposes. We don’t want to be too ignorant.

The disadvantage I can think right now is that it will further open our curiosity and will make some of us want to learn it more by actually doing it already. Maybe some will try even if they don’t know the consequence.

My stand remains neutral. I honestly don’t know where to side on. I think the most important is that we should know WHEN we will be doing it and with WHOM we will do it with.
