Men and women should always have the right to decide what to do. I’m not a professional. Everything that you will read is based on what I’ve experienced in my own country (The Philippines). Lots of women here are so scared and feel embarrassed whenever they try to open about sex. I personally didn’t try sex at a young age because of the thought that sex is a bad thing to do. I was so scared to get pregnant, so scared that God will punish me because I was taught that it was a sin. I got told that being a virgin until you got married was mandatory & if I broke that rule, I would be considered a slut.
I became an ignorant and hypocrite virgin.
“Do these words bother you? Do they make you feel uncomfortable?”
Nobody wants to talk about it. Most adults are trying to avoid it. When I was a teenager I couldn’t even say the words penis ,vagina, masturbate, because I felt like those words are prohibited. Some adults even laugh at it. Remember, those are parts of our body and it shouldn’t be called with joke names like vajayjay or junior.
If young people are not properly educated about Sex. Then who will educate them?
- pornography?
- friends?
- experimentation?
If we keep hiding sex topics to young people it only creates a problems and a very scary consequence : “COMPLETE IGNORANCE” which will result in sexual transmitted diseases, unwanted pregnancies, and sexual abuse.
“Sex is a natural part of human life”
Sex shouldn’t be an awkward or sensitive topic. Sex is a very basic human activity as basic as eating.
But some government leaders and religious groups are against sex education. They believe it will only provoke adolescents to try sex, but what is wrong with having sex?
“Couples naturally want sex and pleasure. It has lots of health benefits like decreasing stress and anxiety. It is also something that we should enjoy and not something to feel ashamed of. “
If you are in a relationship you can have pleasure without getting pregnant. Sex creates more connection and it’s a good way to build trust with your partner.
“Basic Awareness”
The most safe and effective way to enjoy sex with your partner is by using a condom.There are other ways such as the withdrawal method(aka pulling out) which basically means pulling out the penis from the vagina before ejaculation.
Of course! But for Gods sake use a Condom. I will not suggest the withdrawal method because it won’t protect you from getting an STD(sexually transmitted disease) especially if it’s just a random person. Enjoy but be responsible and protect yourself!
“Basic understanding about the reproductive organs”
- During puberty girls start ovulating and menstruating. Blood comes out through the vagina and it's called a "period" that may last up to 7 days. Another fluid that your vagina normally produces has a yellowish colored. It can be noticed on your underwear and it's called vaginal discharge. At this time, the body becomes more curvier and the breasts begin to grow.
- Guys will start to feel an erection. The penis will become hard especially when they think sexual things and most of the time when they wake up. Guys then have the choice to ejaculate, which is done by masturbating or having sex. The fluid that comes out from their penis is called "sperm".
- When a man and woman have sex without any protection sperm will meet an egg cell and potentially become a fetus and turn into a baby!
The mission of this article is not to promote sexual activity but to share this very important awareness to STOP IGNORANCE ! To increase young people’s knowledge and equipped them with the freedom to choose what is right and wrong for themselves.
