Do you think that Masturbation should be taught in Sex Ed?

Question

Accepted Answer

I voted maybe. The questions a bit unclear. It should be covered as normative human behavior, but there’s not really much to teach in depth about it that’s classroom appropriate.

Answer

How to masturbate no.
Destigmatizing it and normalizing it yes.

Answer

If you mean it as , taught about and taught that it is natural, then yes. Taught "how" to do it, no. Lol. But I doubt that is what you mean. Just like so many other parts of sexual health, a lot of kids grow up either without knowing what it is, and feeling weird or ashamed about it, or being taught that it is shameful, so I think it is important that they are taught it is normal and natural.

Answer

It should be taught that it’s normal, natural, and healthy.
I don’t think poke and stroke technique pamphlets should be passed out..

Answer

I think they should reiterate that it’s normal, especially for girls.

Answer

In what ways are we taking? How to masturbate or how it should be seen as perfectly normal. To me. They are two different things.

Answer

No. It doesn't need taught and it's not the schools job to normalize it. That's the parent/community role.

Answer

It was covered when I was I  middle school... If we were able to maturely sit through that topic,  I can't see why it can't be covered in at least highschool🤷🏽

Answer

Yes. A lot of kids have questions on it. And some don’t know how to do it. I personally don’t do it but I would want to be educated on it anyways.

Answer

Why? It’s just something you catch onto and learn naturally when you touch yourself 
Why would I need a class on how to please myself?
