I’m curious about how my childhood would have gone if this was a part of my curriculum. As a kid who grew up on antidepressants (Intuniv at 10-puberty, then Zoloft until late last year at 21), I didn’t experience much of the sexual side of puberty. I’m curious if I would have been able to notice that I wasn’t experiencing normal puberty and gotten my meds changed. I wonder what that would have done to my current psyche and if it has anything to do with either my dissociation or memory issues.

in conversations about sex education for children many people fall back on teaching children to recognize and, hopefully, report predatory behavior as the primary reason why this education is good, and obviously I don't disagree with that! when I educate my 4th-6th students, we spend a significant amount of time talking about boundaries and consent and drilling in to the kids' brains that they do NOT need to tolerate inappropriate touching or other behavior from anyone, not even adults who might try to pressure them into thinking otherwise.

BUT! but but but! I think it's also really important to remember that preparing for the worst case scenario isn't the only reason to educate kids about sexuality and their bodies! kids deserve to enter puberty understanding all of the changes they'll experience, and not just the growing and sweating. it's good for kids to understand the new desires they might start experiencing! it's good to know about intense new crushes and erections and wet dreams and sexual fantasies and masturbation! those things can be really, really scary and confusing for young people who don't have any framework to understand them, and it's really easy to feel like you're doing something dirty and inappropriate if no one has told you that sexual pleasure and curiosity is normal, healthy, and good.

good sex ed should help students feel comfortable and safe expressing their sexuality! that's crucial!

New lingo idea:

Awesome sauce = sauce!

Cool beans = beans!

Just get rid of the first word, and now we have a new answer to something cool or awesome!

A bus may have only a couple of passengers, especially at the beginning or end of its route. But let's also take fuel efficiency into account.

I recently started using mouthwash and I have a question for people who regularly use it:

How the FUCK do you swish it around so fast??

Knowing that trans women of color started the movement in the united states and were literally immediately erased and excluded from what they started is the most deeply jading knowledge.

It is the original sin of the so-called queer community and it damns it from the cradle.

Chaos, but only if you look at it as a whole.
