My Experience with sex ed...

Please tell us where else you get information about sex.

my personal experiences

In one sentence, tell us what your first time talking with your parent(s)/guardian(s) about sex was like? Who started the conversation?

My parents always talk to me about sex, i was about 10 the first time they started talking to me about it because i walked in on them one time.

The most important...
sex is a great thing when you are married, and just be open about your sexuality

Do you have a story that you think should be on Sex, Etc. because it would help other teens? Write it here, and you and your story may be featured on the Web site.

I was 13 when I first had sex, now I have a daughter. You can get pregnant the first time so dont think that you cant because I did!

If Sex, Etc. gave you $1,000 dollars to help teens get access to honest, medically accurate and balanced information about human sexuality and to help teens make responsible choices about sexual health, what would YOU do?

I would start a group with trusted adults for teens to be open and honest because teen pregnancy is a growing problem.
