I got sex ed at 9...

We had it at about that age, but it was only really a puberty talk. (Girls and boys were separated)
The year after we got a bit of a talk, but the rest is down to the internet. It is disgraceful really. The way people complain about the high teen pregnancy rates but they can't even be bothered to teach us properly - how else are kids supposed to know?
 
I know. 9 was puberty, 11 was real sex, 12 was science behind sex. Our teacher for those sessions was the same, and she told us to text her if we had any questions. Which was good. I know a school near me allows phones, as the have a number for the nurse, who can take people oit of class for hygiene reasons.

But really though. My sex ed teacher made us shout "SEX MAKES BABIES" in seventh grade. How does that teach us anything? I learned from the internet. Ugh -___- that's why I'm invested in this thread, though c:
 
yea, i figured it was something like that with the pre-***. like i said, it prevents pregnancy not STDS.

also, a resource for the girls on here

I got the sperm information from this site so I think it's pretty reliable. They linked to a study and everything. And well, I know people that have either been hella lucky or have proven the pre-*** theory to be true.

I added the link. :)
 
People seem to be stressing condom usage, but how about birth control? Should you visit a doctor to get birth control prescribed, or is it OK to get over-the-counter? Also, for sexually active minors (16-18) whose families have stigmatized sex, way for them to access birth control? It's to my understanding that planned parenthood provides condoms but I wasn't sure about birth control.

You learnt it on the Internet? I actually feel bad for you, Learning many things by the Internet can be dangerous.

Curious. Did anyone have rape talks or was it just my school? They separated boys and girls and had separate lessons that day. I actually think they should do more of that given the rape-culture today.

I'm very wary about birth control because of how it messes w/ the hormones. I heard coming off it is a total pain and it takes a while to re-adjust. Furthermore, the side effects D;

I think planned parenthood provides birth control as well.

You can in fact get birth control from planned parenthood but it requires an appointment and you have to pay for them.
Birth control pills aren't only useful for preventing kids! It can also help your cycle stay regular and if you have a heavy cycle, it helps to lighten them and make them more bearable. I'd suggest talking to your parents about it and visiting a doctor.

Well you have to have a prescription for birth control, and you have to be 18 to buy a morning-after pill, but condoms can be bought regardless of age. I think one may be able to go to a health clinic for a condom or pill, no questions asked.

I went to my doctor to get a prescription for it. I can't imagine taking OTC pills. What if those don't work with your body? Trust your doctor c: and I'm not sure what to do if your family doesn't want you on birth control. If you could afford it, you could buy your own prescription every month in secret, but I'm really not sure =/

For the question about how to get birth control, I don't know what it's like in other countries but I know in the uk the only over the counter birth controls you can get are condoms and the morning after pill. Even if you can get other stuff over the counter I'd suggest going to discuss about this with your doctor about what contraception is best for you. That way you may end up finding out the one you thought would be best for you isn't and there's an alternative that will be better.
 
In yr 6 our teacher saw us laugh when she said vagaina, so she said " let's say the next word together, 3.. 2.. 1 .. PENIS" and we all shouted it. Some of the 7 year olds heard...

I don't actually recall having those talks in school. And yes they should be taught more about rape.
