Please put me on ignore so as not to subject you to my crazy, hateful, hurtful, offensive, and nonsensical posts. I am obviously not worthy of your attention...so let it go.
And calm down. Life is too short to be so angry and bitter.
Enjoy life!
I dunno what his problem is. He called me a liar also.

There's always the possibility that more than one person is using the account. That wouldn't surprise me either.

Overall I think the students will adjust as they do with all other courses. A few may feel it is against their values, but those are becoming smaller each day.
The course will be fine and stay in the catalog. It does provide needed education.

Halfway, you can make your disclaimer your signature... that way you don't have to write or copy it each time you post and it wouldn't be considered spam.

Snooze. Surprised to be saying this. Shut the phuck up, ok? You're helping this person be obnoxious? Doesn't need your help for that.

Such a pleasant person you are. Probably a compassionate humanist in all regards. Love you!

That's nice of you. Thank you. You obviously are a good judge of character. And I love you too, when you are not being repetitive or obnoxious. Sorry to put conditions on my love for you, but there you go.

Question - How would a Cornishwoman sitting on her local PTA inform her on whether sex education is given in American schools and at what age?
Not a confrontation - just trying to get you to see and appreciate that, on an international forum, people will have different experiences to you and come at subjects with different cultural references and without specific knowledge of US customs and practices.

And really, a porn movie? What's that supposed to teach them, how to fake an orgasm?
As young adults, not by :-
The class was transformed into both a whispering and giggling frenzy.
that's what young children would be expected to do.

I was only curious as to whether American children get the same sort of sex education at the same age as British children do. I know what happens here in Britain, but not sure what happens in America. I also know that at any stage I can request that my children do not take part in any sex education classes. I know I stopped my son seeing the video of a woman giving birth, purely because he absolutely freaks if he witnesses anyone in pain due to his Autism, my daughter will view it all this year, hope it scares her for a few years yet :wah: Mind you, an almost two year old little brother is enough to put her off at the moment hehehe.

Actually, over here a group of experienced 50 year olds may act in this way just as the students. I suspect it is more a matter of a different culture than a level of maturity. Different cultures react to different subjects in different ways.

Almost certainly - I never cease to be amazed at how different the two cultures are.

My 13 year old had the simulated baby for a weekend this year. It was just a weekend, but that was plenty. They then were getting into sex education and addressing both physical and emotional aspects of engaging. Also they discussed abstinence. I got a letter to sign and send back if I did not want her participating.
