Good Day, Students!  Happy PRIDE Month 🌈 Welcome to Sex-Ed class 😊. Our Fifth lesson will cover: Being Closeted and Coming Out!  What does it mean to be 'Closeted'?  Well, it means to conceal a part of your gender identity,  and (or) sexuality. Someone may choose to be in the closet for a variety of reasons. Some of the most common reasons are: To protect themselves (and sometimes their partner(s) too) from physical harm, death, or discrimination.  They are exploring themselves, and haven't come to a decision on what their gender identity and (or) sexuality might be.  They don't believe in labels.  They do not have access to a supportive & accepting community around them. Loud and clear for the students in the back of my class, There is no shame in being, living, and growing in the closet. Especially if it's to protect yourself.

Safe sex is the practice of protecting yourself, and your partner from STIs (Sexually Transmitted Infections) (Planned Parenthood, 2010) and lowers the possibility of unplanned pregnancies.  In layman's terms, we will have fewer "children having children" or ill-prepared adults having children and fewer chances of unexplained burning, itching, rashes, or discharge from our unmentionables (vagina, penis, anus, mouth, etc.). So learning about safe sex and how to practice it, is vital for all people, especially those who are currently sexually active. Yes, it doesn't matter if you are married, dating, sweethearting, 'talking', or paying for play, this still applies to you.  The Myths of Safe Sex! If you remember lesson 3, where we talked about getting nastily in love with yourself, ...

 Good Day, Students!  Welcome to Sex-Ed class 😊. Our Third lesson will cover:  Masturbation - Da Good, Da Bad, and Da Ooogly What is Masturbation? Well, some people may say it's wanking off, beating your meat, petting the kitty, two-finger tango, tickling your peach, stroking the wood, wax-on wax-off, flogging the bishop, choking the chicken, fisting your mister, five knuckle shuffle, or simply touching yourself (MANTALITY, 2010).  But to break it down further, masturbation is the art of self-pleasure. We explore, touch, and rub different parts of our body (such as our penis, vagina, breasts/nipples, clitoris, or anus) to instinctually achieve an orgasm (SHVIC, 2024). So Yes, this is a completely natural, and healthy thing for Adults and Teenagers a like. Also, masturbation can be explored with your hands, sex toys, pillows, and multiple different items that can "scratch that itch" (Advocate Health, 2024, Cleveland Clinic, 2022). Please Note: There are unofficial ...
