A14. Why can't you choose one sex over the other?

soc.bi FAQ section C
Some of us have tried, but why should we? Denying our attraction to one sex or the other hurts. If you ask the question out of innocence (you don't feel this attraction, so why should anybody?) then you're asking us to put away feelings that we cannot and will not live without. If you ask these questions with full knowledge of the issues at hand, then your question is as patently offensive as a white supremacist asking us to choose one race over another.

What about single-sex teaching and single-sex schools?

The Standards Site: FAQs
Its effectiveness can be difficult to evaluate because it is often undertaken on a short-term basis, for just one year or one cohort of students. The initiative for its introduction is usually from the Department concerned, and it is mainly introduced either for pragmatic reasons (gender imbalance in year group or sets) or as a strategy for raising (boys') achievement. There is conflicting evidence over whether examination results are better for pupils taught in single-sex groups.

Why do teens choose to have sex?

PSI Brochure Information
Teens choose to have sex for a variety of reasons. However, most reasons why teens have sex are not good reasons. However, a mature teen is one that decides not to have sex and knows that these reasons are not good reasons. Having sex will not turn teens into men or women any sooner or will it make them mature faster. It will not make them popular, and will not make them feel loved and accepted.

For some people, the words "health program" or "health education" immediately raise the prospect of "sex education" and its accompanying political and religious issues. While sex education might be part of a CSHP, it is only one facet of a varied and broad program that seeks to build students' knowledge and skills in a number of areas.

Is TAT the same thing as sex education?

Archdiocese of Boston - Office of Child Advocacy, Implementa...
The simple answer to this question is “No.” However, this doesn’t adequately address the concerns of parents who take seriously the responsibility to educate their own children about sex. Some parents may be concerned that the material presented in sexual abuse prevention education is too explicit and can scare children. They are also uneasy about the discussion of any sexual issues with small children. Sex education and sexual abuse prevention education are not the same.

What's wrong with abstinence-only sex education programs?

Association of Reproductive Health Professionals
This is one idea that sounds reasonable in theory, but not in practice. For a working woman or a woman from a rural area, a waiting period may double the time and salary she must lose because she is away from work, as well as the expense for travel and child care. Many women must travel long distances, some over 50 to 100 miles, to get to an abortion provider; a 24-hour delay increases the cost of the abortion and may increase the risk of complications.
