so teaching kids what anal sex is and what the safest ways to engage in it are and how to consent or not consent is going to pressure them to have anal sex, but teaching them what PiV sex is and how to engage in it safely and how to consent or not won’t? sounds logically sound

you can’t teach kids about how to decide if they’d like to participate in a sex act in the future if you don’t teach them what it is ~before~ they become curious about trying it learning what anal is from porn isn’t teaching kids anything that can meaningfully inform choices

a kid needs to know what anal involves before trying it to be able to understand if they even actually want to try it, and know if they want to say no if a partner brings up trying it, and learn how to exercise their autonomy in that hypothetical situation

There is a fine line between giving information that can be used as an adult & normalising behaviour for 13-year-olds. The problem is that the materials in question - which I'm willing to bet you have never seen - go way over that line. And that puts girls under undue pressure

explain to me then - what are the likes crossed? the acknowledgement that anal sex exists and can be pleasurably engaged in between consenting parties within age of consent boundaries? because that’s something you’re supposed to teach about PiV sex

the majority of all consensual sexual activity engaged in is for pleasure so teaching about PiV sex will provide knowledge that will primarily be used by teenagers for pleasure until they’re likely in their twenties or thirties so why exclude other sex acts?

I mean, we know why really, we’d just like you to say it out loud: you find anal sex to be in some way morally wrong in and of itself - probably because of homophobia, despite the fact that plenty of women (myself included) also enjoy anal sex

Wow, some weird projection there. Those are your issues, not mine. I care about the huge amount of peer pressure that teenage girls now are under to emulate sex in porn films, to ignore their own boundaries or what they enjoy. To talk part in sex at all at an age it is illegal.

Ok, but that societal pressure comes from a completely different source. Its like trying to stop your bathroom from flooding by putting a grate in the floor, rather than finding the leak.

The idea that you can combat social pressure driven by porn by just *not mentioning* certain topics in proper sex ed is absurd It doesn't make any sense just on the face of it
