The Sex Education we didn't have

Do you remember that day when the teacher gave a sex education class? He certainly will.

The ritual used to be: the poor teacher would arrive, announce the temporary suspension of regular classes, and say that on that day they were going to talk about penises, vaginas, condoms, and pills.

The young men, horny and hormonal, were warming up. A burst of laughter here, someone said he'd put a condom on the banana there, someone said "testicles" out loud, a hohoho, a hahaha... And the commotion usually culminated in some silly question like "Does my sperm count drop if I masturbate a lot?" or "What does semen taste like, professor?"... and with general chaos.

Sex, not much. Education, none. What we learned… we learned from a magazine stolen from PRIVATe, or by going blind watching the encrypted Canal+, or because a colleague on the bus/your cousin/someone older from the neighborhood… told you stories to keep you awake.

Sex education during our adolescence has always been deficient… or non-existent.

we have a problem (SEXUAL)

Spain lags behind the rest of Europe in sex education. It's not mandatory in schools, and young people enter their first relationships with knowledge that comes directly from the internet (a bad idea) or pornography (a terrible one).

Time to fix it? Judging by the success of "Sex Education", It could be. The Netflix series (the season's hit after "The Squid Game") has a simple premise: a school where students who need answers about sex, and since they can't find them, turn to a classmate - the son of a sexologist - for the relevant sexological/psychological therapy.


What's great about the series is that, beyond the usual "problems" like "getting pregnant," it's primarily about emotional education and empathy. It's about understanding the human codes that guide us in bed. It's about listening to our partner, learning about them, and enjoying their company. Something basic, sure, but not everyone knows by instinct.

Because let's remember that the mantras you learned before you started having sex were like "no gagging, no blowjob" or that good sex involves cumming (mistake #1) at the same time (and I can't even match my socks) to be successful.

Educating is, above all, enjoying and talking more.

In the series, a student responds to a repressive headmistress who organizes sex talks more reminiscent of the 19th century than our own.

"We shouldn't feel ashamed of having sexual desires. You make sex sound scary, but it doesn't have to be. It can be fun, beautiful, and it can teach you things about yourself and your body."You should teach us how to do it safely, not how to abstain, because that doesn't work.
And what problem throughout history hasn't been solved by looking the other way? This one is no exception. Here are some problems with our historical approach (abstinence or not talking about it) to sex education:

  1. It increases unwanted teenage pregnanciesIn the United States There is a clear correlation. between preaching abstinence and more pregnancies.

  2. We are sowing the seeds for future toxic relationships. Yeah: It's been thoroughly studied how to educate early on avoid.

  3. It makes us more prejudicedAbstinence or silence imposes a moral burden, a taboo surrounding sex. It's easier to understand the diversity of preferences, tastes, and orientations when you learn about them from a young age (and not when they become a sinful and dark vice).

  4. And we enjoy it less.Especially women (the clitoris remains such a vital organ) overlooked and mythologized (like the G-spot and in general all sex revolves around them), but also men: since no one has ever talked to us about anything else, we tend to go back to the same old thing in bed.

It's difficult to fully enjoy something if you only know 10% of what it has to offer.

We need to call things by their name. No bananas, cucumbers, and papayas... let's talk about dicks, pussies, real bodies, real sex, and FUCKING... in PROPER CONDITIONS (the best conditions)

And to speak frankly about everything (of 👏🏽 -TO 👏🏽- DO 👏🏽) from a young age. Because it's the only way to get to know each other, to respect each other, and to understand sex not as a taboo, but as something natural and wonderful.

It's a battle that must begin now. Sex education, a core subject and a matter of free choice. ✊
