Sex ed. in schools

[Billydude]

Okay, so in health my class is being taught sex ed. Of course nobody likes it, but you're required to take it. My question is if it is really necessary for it to be taught in school. I hardly ever learn anything from the sex ed. classes I have taken so far. Pretty much the only thing I've learned is scientific names for body parts and such.

Last year, at the end of our sex ed. classes everyone would get an index card and we could write our questions down and turn them into a box. Next day, the teacher would read off the (apropriate) questions and answer them, but even she didn't know who wrote it. Now, we aren't given note cards and we have to ask the teacher directly... with the rest of the class by you. One of my friends asked a really detailed question about sex (not saying) and I could tell he was a bit embaressed when he heard people snickering.

In my opinion, schools should have a sex. ed class only 2 times. One in 5th grade to let them know what's coming. The other in 10th grade, to teach them the really detailed stuff. Honestly, I would be much more comfortable asking my questions to my father then a teacher I don't really know.

So what's your opinion on sex. ed classes in schools? Discuss.
