Real Sex Education

In A Sexual Education , today’s “On the Square” article, Joe Carter argues that the comprehensive sex education/just use a condom/safe sex and the abstinence education/just say no ideas “are equally flawed and flawed in the same way. Each indoctrinates the children in a particular viewpoint and tries to inoculate them against the negative results of sexual behavior. Neither school of sex educators is primarily concerned with providing an  education .”

He has a good idea what real sexual education would include.
