00:21The only sex education that I remember had absolutely nothing to do with sex.
00:26I remember fallopian tubes and then something about the egg and the sperm and how they got together.
00:33It's funny because what is sex really? And no one will tell you.
00:37Dad?
00:39Yes?
00:41Where do babies come from anyhow?
00:44When people in America hear the term sex education, um, they tend to think about plumbing lessons, organ recitals.
00:52Two ovaries, a pair of oviducts, and two uterine horns.
00:56But nobody ever mentioned what that was for or why besides my body was changing.
01:02To grow hair down there and to, you know, grow bodies like a woman, it was petrifying.
01:08Mom, no hair.
01:11I was given proper sex education for the times to be the girl I was supposed to grow up to be.
01:19I was supposed to be split and repressed.
01:21There's such, like, shame attached with it, um, that I didn't even want to learn about it because I was so embarrassed.
01:28You're not gonna put this of somebody else's in yours.
01:33Don't call it sex education because it doesn't reveal all the facts.
01:37More than we really learned anything about sex itself, we learned every single sexual disease.
01:42There's never been a federal program to teach comprehensive sexuality education, which deals with everything about our sexuality as a whole.
01:49Families and relationships and sexual orientation and gender identities.
01:55We teach kids driver ed partly because we know that teenagers want to drive, but also because we know that people will drive a car for the rest of their lives.
02:04That's not what we think about with sex education, apparently.
02:16Yes, yes, I do think that there should be more sex in schools.
