Sex Ed!

Tonight's episode of Glee was all about being "sexy" and sex. They talked about how important it is to know what is behind sex. While watching the show, I was text messaging my fourteen year old cousin, which I find her to be extremely naive. She's the definition of a total tomboy. She mentioned she really enjoyed the song "Do You Want to Touch" by Joan Jett. I thought to myself, she hasn't had sex ed in high school yet, she probably doesn't even know what this song means. So, me being me, I asked her. Her response "I wasn't born yesterday." With her response, I remembered how children are learning things that are way beyond their years. The media has promoted such behaviors. I know that in my hometown, there are 17 year old girls with children as old as 4! This isn't right at all.
