There should be a mandatory sex ed class at three major stages of schooling (middle, high, and college).

Recently in Wales where I live its recently been made mandatory for kids to have sex education from ages 5+.

Karens have been protesting it and saying they dont want their kids being taught so young and its the kind of stuff they dont want their kids to know. Restricting awareness, thats the way forward.... Its not a case of 'dad puts his penis in mums vagina' from age 5, but teaches about consent and tolerance etc. Im a high school teacher and when kids touch each other, -and im talking in a playful way-you can see how uncomfortable that one person is. It makes me cringe and makes me uncomfortable too. Keep your hands to yourself I have to say, and explain why. Obviously the older they get the more biology they get exposed to. Normalise this stuff young, especially for girls, and hopefully one day we can live in a society where girls dont feel ashamed or embarrased for buying what they need every month and see lads appreciatiating bounderies and being able to face rejection! It needs to be taught. We cant make a jonny scopes trial out of this. Whatever the karens think.
