Blogging the Sex Classroom

filed under: State of Sex Ed by Melissa Gira

These human sexuality students at George Mason University are keeping a group blog “devoted to the thoughts, feelings, and insights” during their class experience together this Fall. With the semester nearly done, there’s lots to read back on.

Some favorite quotes, why not, to give us a little faith in the small revolutions in sex ed going on each day, somewhere in America:

From Mimi:

“So I REALLY had a great time doing the experiential activites. I ended up choosing a lot of the activites that allow you to discuss certain topics with your partner: like enhancing sexual enjoyment, birth control options, and how to be a better partner.”

From student A:

“From reading chapter 13 it is interesting to read about childhood sexuality. I learned that about childhood masturbation. I had no idea that is was so common and is very natural.”

From Miss Scion tC:

“One activity had me view myself in the mirror and in doijng this activity I relaized that I havea lot to improve on and that I do want to improve myself.”

Okay, so they could use some minor revolutions in spelling, too, but how heartening is the message.

I’d love to keep tabs on more sexuality education blogs. Links, please!
