Boys who are NEVER told that sexuality is either right or wrong WILL express it as a natural extension of their behavior. Our sexualized society with its sex-ed in the third and fourth grades, and its constant sexual imagery in our media is not something that happens naturally. If left alone, I think a child's sexuality WOULD happen "naturally" -- but in today's world, how can it? We force feed it to those who don't need it. How can we assume that sexual education is good for a class of 30 8-year olds? I doubt half of them are even thinking of having sex yet. My nephew is 13 and he's STILL not interested (and this is RARE). Why must they be forced to think about? And how do we know that the child is NOT getting mixed and confused messages from the world he/she lives in, and that THIS isn't the reason for his/her developing sexuality. Splash |
