Over the course of the past several months, I have heard 
many statements made regarding sex education in public 
schools, many of which seem very uninformed to me, 
especially in light of a bit of research I did recently.  

If some of these points seem off-topic, it is because I 
originally wrote this post in response to questions asked 
on talk.abortion.

------------------------------------------------------------
Again, let me state my disagreement with public school 
sex ed courses.  I am not against physical biology, the 
teaching that masturbation or homosexuality exist, or 
birth control.  What I am against is instruction of morals 
which I do not share, encouraging sexual activity on the 
part of minors, or graphic instruction in sex methods and 
practices.

The following four books are used in many public school 
districts.  The pamphlet is distributed in many school-based 
birth control (family planning) clinics.

From "Boys and Sex,"by Wardell B. Pomeroy, published by Dell 
Publishing, New York:

(1)  "Premarital intercourse does have its definite values as 
      training ground for marriage or some other committed 
      relationship ... It's like taking a car out on a test 
      run before you buy it."    (pg. 117)

(2)   Specific instructions for masturbation   (pg. 49)

(3)   Explicit advice on petting   (pg. 125)

(4)   Vivid descriptions are given for three specific 
      positions for intercourse   (pg. 127)

(5)  "Any of the farm animals may become a sexual object -- 
      ponies, calves, sheep, pigs, even chickens or ducks.  
      Dogs are also commonly used, but cats rarely ... If 
      this kind of sexual behavior should ever happen to you, 
      you would be best to keep knowledge of it from other 
      people."   (pg. 171-172)

From "Girls and Sex,"by Wardell B. Pomeroy, published by Dell 
Publishing, New York:

(6)   Graphic descriptions of heavy petting, hand-to-genital 
      stimulation and oral-genital stimulation   (pg. 74-75)

In "Changing Bodies, Changing Lives," by Dr. Ruth Bell, 
published by Random House, New York:

(7)   Graphic descriptions of mutual masturbation including 
      value judgement "It was great."   (pg. 96)

(8)   Specific techniques for oral sex described   (pg. 96)

(9)   Descriptions of various woman-to-woman sexual 
      techniques   (pg. 122)

(10)  Descriptions of various man-to-man sexual techniques
      (pg. 122)

In "The New Our Bodies, Ourselves," published by Simon & 
Schuster, New York;

(11) "The question of whether or not to sell ourselves to men 
      [in prostitution] is a false one:  The real question is 
      how to sell ourselves in the way that is least destructive 
      to ourselves and our sisters.   (pg. 113-114)

(12)  First person dialogue is used to portray the "turn-on" 
      of anal sex   (pg. 178)

In the pamphlet "You've Changed the Combination," published 
by Rocky Mountain Planned Parenthood, Denver;

(13) "There are only two basic kinds of sex: sex with victims and 
      sex without.  Sex with victims is always wrong.  Sex without 
      is always right."   (pg. 10-11)

(14) "Decide honestly what you want from your relationships with 
      women.  Do you want a convenient warm body?  Buy one.  
      That's right.  There are women who have freely chosen the  
    business."   (pg. 18)

Again, please remember that I am not trying to prove any specific 
point with these quotations, I am simply showing that explicit 
material is indeed being taught in many public school sex ed
classes.
