I think that it's a good thing kids in elementary school know about their PRIVATE parts. That way they can be warned against child molesters. Also I think there could be a question during medical examination for the kids in Middle School about if a parent abuses them or if they know someone that is being abused. Not that I'm suggesting schools should have the right to intrude in the privacy of a family, but maybe it can help some children come forward with their problems.
@Darkenedavo I disagree with you because out of experience I know I would'n have done some sorts of things if my mom had given me a little advise. She tells me now she regrets things she did when she was still young, but never told me anything when I was a teenager. I believe I could have avoided some situations if she had told me she regretted them herself afterwards. If you're still not convinced you must see the episode of TYT about the increasing teen pregnancies in conservative states.
@iktyphiermaarwat I don't see how this applies to what I'm saying. A more in-depth sex education program would help decrease that rate. I know that I never got the talk from my parents while I did learn tons at school. I result I am far more careful and concerned about STIs and possible pregnancy than my mother is. School needs to teach indepth sex education for the safety of the children because not all parents do the job.
@Darkenedavo Sorry, what you sad I agree completely! I don't know how but I clicked on your commend to answer the one of thuzan117 (his commend has the most likes). Sorry again, don't know what happened...
You people say "Leave it to the parents." Yet their kids are having sex at 13 and having children themselves at 15. SHUTUP and let the PUBIC SCHOOLS teach children about sex.
I knew about sex by the time I was in 3rd grade and was taught sex ed in 4th and 5th grade in a Maryland public school.
The only thing you need to do in public school is just teach the kids the anatomy and how the human race reproduces at an appropriate age (about 10 or 11) and leave the rest of that shit to the discretion of the parents. Anything else and the school is then playing philosopher to either a left or right wing extent and thereby encroaching.
i live in Helena montana last year i was in 5th grade,we had sex ed,,, but we didnt learn bout 69 and all that shizz but we watched a video of how stuff works,,we got a stick of deodarint and a little book. it was mostly about going thhrough puberty.
Why dont they just show the kids some porno movies that will explain how babies are made and how people have sex and what it looks like, it will be very simple
5th grade is middle school. We had some sex ed in 5th grade science, it went along with biology. We learned about puberty and where babies come from and all that jazz. I think its the proper age to start.
No kid is too your to learn proper anatomical terms, its not crude or dirty at all. Also, teaching acceptance of other family types and all kinds of people is crucial for young children as well as older children.
wow.......thats just what we need.....6 yr olds learning about straight and gay sex and 10 yr olds learning about wheelbarrow and doggy style......thats just ridiculous. while im all about teaching 5th graders about puberty, what sex is, and how pregnancy happens and 8-12th graders about condoms and birth control, first graders?? thats just ridiculous. and now were gonna see 5th graders trying to do it doggy style....
I think that young is a bad idea. anatomical terms they could learn by 2nd grade because they've hit a certain level of understanding and comprehensiveness. I don't think that people having samesex relationships needs to be a part of this cirriculum, b.c we live in a modern world, by the time they're 10, they're gonna know what a homosexual is anyway. Maybe 7th gr at the youngest, teen years, different positions. Let's not spoil childhood for them before we have to.
@ZchibizroxZ i dont think we need to teach any school-age kid/teen the different sex positions. they find that out by themselves. and sex ed can be awkward as it is. i believe we should teach 5th graders the basics about sex, pregnancy, and puberty, and 8-12th graders about birth control
I think teaching kids about sex at K up maybe 4th grade could be a bad thing. Because at that age they really don't think much about sex or relationships with other humans and they aren't crazy zombies to have sex as much as teachers. I think it should be okay to start at fifth grade.
It's nice to think that parents will teach their kids everything they need to learn about sex but unfortunately that doesn't happen because a lot of parents take the idiotic approach of just ignoring it and telling their kids that sex is bad which is the complete wrong way and that's one of the reasons there are so many 16 year old mothers.
Kids need to learn about puberty as soon as possible, and need to get used to the idea of same sex couples at a young age. I'm all for the correct terminology, but "positions"? what does that even mean? I went to a Catholic primary school so we learned about the mechanics of sex before protection, which I didn't learn about properly until I was 12. That could definitely be damaging...
WAY too liberal. i'm a progressive but fuck me that's too much. my mom never bullshitted me about sex and i did fine. no sex ed until highschool. conservatives gotta take your side here, we need to do it early but this is WAY too early.
@PuppyXz you idiot, where exactly did you learn about sex? your friends? porn? education stops warped views about sex, teaches safe sex, stops kids reaching adolescence from feeling insecure about themselves by telling them exactly what they're going through and teaches fundamental biology.
Sex education like any other education, should impart knowledge and provide tools to make informed decisions, that said, I think this sex ed program is a bit screwed up.
It's fine to teach anatomy at any age (according to the child's capability to understand the terms), and it's important to give kids options to deal with different family structures, attraction (and romance), sexual abuse and gender definitions, understanding sexual representation (porn, nudity) and sexual norms.
I think this is way to early, yea I Learned about lesbians at 3rd grade and such but I think teaching them different sex positions is bad idea. Especially in middle school when guys become walking boners and girls become little too "rebellious". I personally think parents should stop being lazy and just teach them the birds and bees, not hoping a teacher would do it then judge them on it. 6th and 7th is where it is at, cause there finally close to the real world and don't have such kiddie minds.
@TammyGarilo ok i agree with that, but sex positions? Maybe subjects like rape and how to handle urges or how to know that not all guys are horn dogs but to keep smart on to not do it till your "truly" ready. That seems way better then "lets teach you all sex positions", I mean come on you need to agree with me on that, and also on the k, 1st and 2nd grade thing, like the guy said if you tell a kid no he will do it FOREVER. I know I called everyone damn lucky when i learned not to say damn lucky
@Hariuka, i do agree. i don't understand why the sex positions them selves are needed. only oral i suppose because a lot of kids don't know that oral counts as a type of sex. it could help if a child is raped because they will know that oral counts as well.
@TammyGarilo Agreed entirely but to a degree, not "let me show you how its done". I still prefer to wait but idk thats me, I learned at middle school and it was ok for me cause at that time I was embarrassed that my boner wouldn't go down and that only i had that issue
@Hariuka, eh, a touchy subject. girls hit puberty faster but it would be weird to just teach the girls and then it would just create confusion and division.
@Hariuka I said I think girls are more mature then boys but like I said, I am a boy I have a bias to say, I seen girls who are mature but I never been to a sex ed for girls, I know guys say sick a penis or make a joke (in 5th). I don't know what girls would do, plus my gf is not one to ask cause she as childish as I am. To take consideration is the human themselves. One girl could be the most mature ask question on the clitoris and such while another could just be going EWWWIE and freaking out.
This is what happens when you have people who have no experience teaching children come up with education plans. They don't understand that you cant lump everyone into the same category. Like Cenk said most of the kids will be too young and immature to handle the subject correctly. The worst thing that I heard about this story is that the Middle School has NO SEX ED. The kids who should be learning about sex ed aren't getting it. The focus for sex ed shouldn't be on the elementary schools.
I'm guessing the Right grossly interpreted this Sex Ed I'm pretty sure now one in my kindergarten said "penis" everything else is one the spot 5th grade my friends and I had a big fight over can a woman have an orgasm. See Sex Ed would have prevented by telling us white people can't please their women... :P jkin'
I have read studies where the earlier they start sex ed, the lower chance of STDs and teen pregnancy, I plan to start my kids learning before they even enter school. I WISH they would start sex ed in kindergarten, that way kids would be educated. We didn't start learning about puberty until 6th grade, I started my period in 5th grade. We never learned to protect ourselves during oral sex, I had a friend in 6th grade who had oral sex with her bf. It needs to start early!
While I don't think that we as a country are ready for K-5 sex education, I know it's crucial to start early. It's about instilling values that don't have to do with fear, shame, and silence about sex. If you teach a 5-year-old about sexual terms, you've already empowered him/her and shown openness about the questions they may have over the years. Then, when the child is older and has to deal with a developing adult sexuality, they can feel confident and make better decisions.
I cannot possibly love this comment more. It sadden me that people who think like you and I are not in the public majority. The fact that so many adults are horrified of their kids learning about life processes is immature on the adults' part.
@aalexisi i think its ok to teach 5 yr olds the terms penis and vagina, but teaching kindergarteners and first graders about sex and gay sex is a little much...
@aalexisi i had in 5th and it was a private jesuit school in the midwest i the 90's but any younger is too much i think and different positions weren't discussed obviously
Thats too much shit. I wouldnt want my kids hearing about fags anal boning at 7. Start at 11 and keep it to heterosexual sex, whats the point of teaching homo? fuck the miniscule minority that are gay... theyll figure it out.
honestly i think the sooner you teach kids about sex and that its not some shameful, taboo subject, the better. by brushing sex under the rug you open up a fucking can of worms for all the kids who get their info from lil wayne and porn.
my dad always got so pissed off when elementry schools tought me sex ed, they tought as early as grade 4. i think its unnesssary, maybe they could start the basics at grade six, grade 4 was a little mind blowing for me
@up2trix 11 was too late for my friend who started having oral sex in 6th grade. 11 was too late for me when I got my period in 5th grade. Not every person is the same, the earlier people start educating kids, the better.
I believe that if we teach our children early enough that the human body isn't some big mystery. It's that reason that as kids get older they become more interested in others because they want to know what the other has.
You have to teach them before puberty, or they'll get into it without knowing what they hell they're doing. Not ridiculous at all. Perhaps teaching positions is a bit much, but the rest is perfect.
8th grade is too late. Some will be having sex well before then, and prone to various risks due to lack of education.
@TheDukeOfEden They taught me sex ed when i was in the 5th grade,and it's not like i started going out trying too rape ppl.PLus 8th grade is WAAAAAY too late.Kids hit puberty when thier like in the 6th or 7th grade.
I remember being in elementary school. There was always this big mystery about what the female "private part" was. What did it look like? What was it's name? I kind of like the mystifying nature of it.
I had sex ed at 4th grade and they taugh me so much more than what they teach you here at 7th grade. students are not compelled to have sex simply because they are educated about it, if anything it makes you more mature.
Yeah it would be okay for kids to be taught, but not really young, okay, maybe body parts. But this SHOULDN'T be taught in school, the parents should step up and teach the kids about things themselves, you know, the basics. High schoolers should learn this shit, MAYBE kids in middle school
i learned most of that stuff when i was six from friends who where older who learned that form kids who where even older, and then the rest tv, books, etc.
i doubt anyone should be messing with this, kids aren't stupid, they find out!
I'd say too early... but most kids at that age know about this stuff anyway (hell, most of my classmates knew somethings back in the day, and with the internet the way it is now, you can bet this generation's got a head start)
better they learn the facts though, instead of messing up
though, some of the 'shocks' of sex are fun of find out about on your own
I think is too early. I think that maybe the list that Ana was just reading should start at 4th or 5th grade. But if they ask me what is a penis or a vagina, I think that should be up to the parent. Now when it comes to the same sex thing. If my child was under the fifth grade asks me why were those two people holding hands or kissing in public, then I'll tell him that sometimes a woman likes to be with a women, and that a man likes to be with a man.
I learned about puberty when I was in 5th grade, but my parents had been teaching about al;l of this since I was about 4. Honestly, I don't find that odd. So why teach me about puberty in 5th grade when I already know about gay marriage, and sex positions, and rape. Have at it.
Teaching them with anatomical terms and telling them about homosexual relationships is fine - though I do have a concern with teaching them position in the fifth grade, it's too early.
I think first and second grade is a fine time to teach kids anatomy and teach them that family structures differ. I see nothing at all wrong with that.
"Billy, do you have a mom and a dad? That's great. Some kids have only a mom or only a dad, some have two dads or two moms. Some have a lot of relatives that live with them and help raise the kids. All of those are absolutely fine." HEADS EXPLODE!!
In 5th grade though, I wonder if kids will even comprehend sex. That's my concern.
Doesn't Cenk mean gay sex? not gay marriage? But yes.
I think sex-ed at my secondary school was pretty good, tho it was straight-focus only which is kinda weird being that it was Brighton. I don't think it should be down to parents, I wouldn't wanna learn from mine, learning from school is better unless its taught badly there. If parents are adamant they can do better maybe it could be opt out, not opt in (in case of negligent parents). I'd say people should be taught in full by at least age 13
It's so odd that the intro is silent. Every time I watch a TYT video I think I've got my computer on mute (I often do mute my computer) and try and unmute it.. There's just something very unsual about silent video, I don't think we're molded to be used to it.
Penises and vaginas should be surgically removed until people are at least 30 years old, unless they are diagnosed with brain cancer or something. I was shocked and dismayed to learn that most toddler discover their private parts and then won't leave their stuff alone... shocking!!! idle hands are the devil's workshop!!! I SAY REMOVE THE HARDWARE BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES AN EYE!!!
I think it may be to young for some of the topics. BUT kids do need to know these terms and be educated about sex. All and all i think its a good idea but they need to re-think Kinder garden and 1st grade. start at 3rd grade and move on from there
The average age of puberty for girls is 10.5 years... this puts them in 5th grade. Still, i say people shouldn't learn about the ways people have sex until they are 40 years old... (I learned when I was 23 and I'm still having nightmares). I also think they should rename the penis to Conan and the vagina to Donnie Darko. I'm just saying...
@AllknowingGuitarGuru 40 years old? wow man, i think you have some problems, i think 6th and 7th grade is a good time to learn all the sex stuff, thats when i was taught it, and i think those were the right years because i remember a year even before that some kids having sex. LOL you were 23??? thats sad...and u have nightmares from it? i think you have some problems buddy...and no i think penis and vagina are good names, tho i have heard some arguments that vagina should be renamed cliteris
i and the kids around me in normal middle class society in germany knew thereal names for their genitals, and how "babies are made", so i dont really get that fear in america
@brotmann86 I don't get the fear in America ether, and Iv lived in the US my whole life and I'm also republican. If the US was more like Germany and over counties of the EU, then we here in America would have a lot less pregnancys, abortions, and diseases.
10 years old seems a bit young for descriptions of sex with multiple partners etc.
I would think more honest discussion needs to take place to, as Cenk said, strike the right balance of info and age appropriate teachings. I think Parents, on this topic, ought to have input, but the final decision should be left up to the educators.
I think in Canada there is the option of not having your child attend certain classes. I'm not sure.
Why the fuck would THE WAYS to have sex be necessary, but I understand everything else. But seriously what would this teach the kids, HOW to have sex? That's for them to figure out, isn't it
@AguyUsingTubeyou Idk.. I guess they know how to use protection in every situation and not assume everyone does it one way? I depends how much detail they go into and the age they are. It makes sense to teach that before they are likely to have sex but not way before. Only need to be vague before.
Or I guess you could take Cenk's point that then they would know when someone was trying to come onto them.
different positions....I wasn't even taught that in High School. We had like 3 seconds of actually telling us the mechanics and then weeks upon weeks of telling us every possible STD known to man. I actually had to search for porn just to understand what goes where and just what the hell "sperm" actually was. Man I hate my highschool years.
its better to teach kids at like 11 year old becuz kids are going to have sex whether you want then to or not.And abstance isnt working.it better to inform kids and at the same time teach them to wait
And those of that you want to complain about lack of class in that comment, save yourself, i wont respond dont need to argue, it's a joke, not a request.
I agree with Ana and Cenk about not teaching first graders this stuff, but, for a completely different reason. Kid learn their attitutudes, and even bigotry and racism from folks older then them. Simply because we, at this point in history seem to have such a taboo and issue with other forms of love, doesn't mean we have to teach our kids all the mess we haven't gotten over yet. . Can any one say Fred Phelps. Lets let our children develope a healthy view, without all of our current issues.
I'm very Liberal, but I don't think 5th graders should be learning about Anal Sex. I don't have a problem with a discussion on Homosexuality, but any discussion of Sexual Acts, I think is too much.
Yeah, 5th graders know what Homosexuality is, but I don't think that kind of talk is necessary.
Haha I remember my sex ed. We had one session in 5th grade, in which they told us the penis goes in vagina and that makes you pregnant. That was sufficient enough for me.
Only thing I agree with is the kindergarden kids learning the proper terms. I was taught the proper terms at that age, nothing wrong with me. My mom from an early age taught me the proper terms, what sex is etc. Granted I was a bit mor emature than kids my age (according to teachers etc.). I dont think they need to learn the different ways you cna have sex (to me that glorifies it a bit? idk) and I think that man/man female/female relations is something they learn on their own and from parents.
I like the idea of teaching kids about the body as early as possible. It gets rid of this.. weird.. shock value we put on the body.
I don't want people running around naked, but I also don't want kids growing up thinking their body's something to be unspeakably ashamed about, like previous generations have.
My first sex ed class was in 4th grade (age 9), but that only dealt with the terms and their functions. It wasn't until 5th and 6th grade where they started talking about sexual relationships, STD's, etc. I think age 10 is an appropriate age to start discussing these issues, but not until ages 11-12 should there be more comprehensive stuff.
@tdurran i love Ana's laugh, and she looks so cute when she laughs. im not sure why you are attacking her for any reason, or replying to this comment. and you might want to think twice about saying the things you did, because i wont be the only person to rip you off for attack any TYT staffs.
@houchi69 Since you are the only one to have taken offence I suggest that the misunderstanding was solely at your end. Perhaps you should follow your own advice and try some courses. However you should be aware that since we're working in a written medium here, you might want to try a course which addresses that rather than a speech class. Perhaps there's some remedial reading classes in your local high school.
10 year olds are having sex and getting pregnant. So it's entirely appropriate to introduce comprehensive sex-ed in 5th grade. How are these kids going to avoid STDs and pregnancy if they don't know what a condom is.
Children should not be taught correct anatomical terms--they should be taught the same terms we've always been taught--pee pee, hoo hoo, bathing suit areas.
@magx01 Why should they even be THINKING about sex at that age? Why cant' they just be allowed to enjoy their childhood care free of the worries of sex and whatnot.
It's a problem with our society that encourages kids to be sexually active earlier and earlier really.
You just remade the same bare assertion. I asked you HOW sec education removes the ability of the child to enjoy their childhood? You don't just get to blindly assert that without qualifying it.
As for the second part, sex education doesn't promote early sexual activity. It EDUCATES kids so they know how to be safe when they inevitably engage in the natural sexual activity that comes with puberty (and beyond).
@magx01 that's a fallacy when dealing with kids. They are bound to try a lot of stuff if you teach them about sex too early. When puberty is setting in around 6th/7th grade, sure, then start teaching them about sex. But before that? Foolishness. If you seriously don't think educating a kid about a potential thing won't make them try it, you've never dealt with many (if any) children.
I think that it's a good thing kids in elementary school know about their PRIVATE parts. That way they can be warned against child molesters. Also I think there could be a question during medical examination for the kids in Middle School about if a parent abuses them or if they know someone that is being abused. Not that I'm suggesting schools should have the right to intrude in the privacy of a family, but maybe it can help some children come forward with their problems.

Sex education like any other education, should impart knowledge and provide tools to make informed decisions, that said, I think this sex ed program is a bit screwed up.
It's fine to teach anatomy at any age (according to the child's capability to understand the terms), and it's important to give kids options to deal with different family structures, attraction (and romance), sexual abuse and gender definitions, understanding sexual representation (porn, nudity) and sexual norms.

SupremePenguinTone 1 year ago
I think this is way to early, yea I Learned about lesbians at 3rd grade and such but I think teaching them different sex positions is bad idea. Especially in middle school when guys become walking boners and girls become little too "rebellious". I personally think parents should stop being lazy and just teach them the birds and bees, not hoping a teacher would do it then judge them on it. 6th and 7th is where it is at, cause there finally close to the real world and don't have such kiddie minds.

@TammyGarilo ok i agree with that, but sex positions? Maybe subjects like rape and how to handle urges or how to know that not all guys are horn dogs but to keep smart on to not do it till your "truly" ready. That seems way better then "lets teach you all sex positions", I mean come on you need to agree with me on that, and also on the k, 1st and 2nd grade thing, like the guy said if you tell a kid no he will do it FOREVER. I know I called everyone damn lucky when i learned not to say damn lucky
Hariuka 1 year ago
@Hariuka, i do agree. i don't understand why the sex positions them selves are needed. only oral i suppose because a lot of kids don't know that oral counts as a type of sex. it could help if a child is raped because they will know that oral counts as well.
TammyGarilo 1 year ago
@TammyGarilo Agreed entirely but to a degree, not "let me show you how its done". I still prefer to wait but idk thats me, I learned at middle school and it was ok for me cause at that time I was embarrassed that my boner wouldn't go down and that only i had that issue

I don't know what girls would do, plus my gf is not one to ask cause she as childish as I am. To take consideration is the human themselves. One girl could be the most mature ask question on the clitoris and such while another could just be going EWWWIE and freaking out.

This is what happens when you have people who have no experience teaching children come up with education plans. They don't understand that you cant lump everyone into the same category. Like Cenk said most of the kids will be too young and immature to handle the subject correctly. The worst thing that I heard about this story is that the Middle School has NO SEX ED. The kids who should be learning about sex ed aren't getting it. The focus for sex ed shouldn't be on the elementary schools.

I have read studies where the earlier they start sex ed, the lower chance of STDs and teen pregnancy, I plan to start my kids learning before they even enter school. I WISH they would start sex ed in kindergarten, that way kids would be educated. We didn't start learning about puberty until 6th grade, I started my period in 5th grade. We never learned to protect ourselves during oral sex, I had a friend in 6th grade who had oral sex with her bf. It needs to start early!
lindafay1 1 year ago
While I don't think that we as a country are ready for K-5 sex education, I know it's crucial to start early. It's about instilling values that don't have to do with fear, shame, and silence about sex. If you teach a 5-year-old about sexual terms, you've already empowered him/her and shown openness about the questions they may have over the years. Then, when the child is older and has to deal with a developing adult sexuality, they can feel confident and make better decisions.

You have to teach them before puberty, or they'll get into it without knowing what they hell they're doing. Not ridiculous at all. Perhaps teaching positions is a bit much, but the rest is perfect.

I think is too early. I think that maybe the list that Ana was just reading should start at 4th or 5th grade. But if they ask me what is a penis or a vagina, I think that should be up to the parent. Now when it comes to the same sex thing. If my child was under the fifth grade asks me why were those two people holding hands or kissing in public, then I'll tell him that sometimes a woman likes to be with a women, and that a man likes to be with a man.

I think sex-ed at my secondary school was pretty good, tho it was straight-focus only which is kinda weird being that it was Brighton. I don't think it should be down to parents, I wouldn't wanna learn from mine, learning from school is better unless its taught badly there. If parents are adamant they can do better maybe it could be opt out, not opt in (in case of negligent parents). I'd say people should be taught in full by at least age 13

10 years old seems a bit young for descriptions of sex with multiple partners etc.
I would think more honest discussion needs to take place to, as Cenk said, strike the right balance of info and age appropriate teachings. I think Parents, on this topic, ought to have input, but the final decision should be left up to the educators.
I think in Canada there is the option of not having your child attend certain classes. I'm not sure.

My first sex ed class was in 4th grade (age 9), but that only dealt with the terms and their functions.

You just remade the same bare assertion. I asked you HOW sec education removes the ability of the child to enjoy their childhood? You don't just get to blindly assert that without qualifying it.
As for the second part, sex education doesn't promote early sexual activity. It EDUCATES kids so they know how to be safe when they inevitably engage in the natural sexual activity that comes with puberty (and beyond).
magx01 1 year ago 4
@magx01 that's a fallacy when dealing with kids. They are bound to try a lot of stuff if you teach them about sex too early. When puberty is setting in around 6th/7th grade, sure, then start teaching them about sex. But before that? Foolishness. If you seriously don't think educating a kid about a potential thing won't make them try it, you've never dealt with many (if any) children.
