The idea that if I were "inappropriately and prematurely sexualized" this would constitute something similar to death -- going to hell, I suppose, or just being irrevocably corrupted and damaged Really great stuff to grow up with, I highly recommend it

I am not your Catholic dad. Your issues with him don't relate to what I am saying. As an adult man, you appear to have absolutely no idea of the huge pressures teenage girls are under to be sexualised.

And you think that eliminating any discussion of actual sex from sex ed is a way to relieve this pressure? Lol I grew up in a *fortress* of the kind of "safeguarding" you advocate -- nothing but dire warnings about pregnancy and STIs -- and it didn't work out that way

Hello strawman! I am strongly in favour of them learning about "actual sex". But there are an unlimited number of sexual practices. Clearly we are not going to teach children about the vast majority. The question is what is age-appropriate. You can't understand girls' views.

On the contrary, I strongly support consenting gay men doing whatever they like in their sex lives. But teenage girls are not men and not adults. Pretending that there is no difference harms girls. Which you clearly don't care about.

Are you under the impression there are no gay teenagers

There are. There also far more straight teenagers. You seem determined to ignore the straight ones. And the gay women. Basically, you only care about gay men. That's it.

Maybe, just maybe, people could benefit from seeing "gay" sex acts as, you know, a normal thing everyone may or may not choose to indulge in that has no special shameful cultural meaning Just a thought
