DOCUMENTARY: Reference Material [Elisha quote]

“okay so all i remember for sex ed was basics, like we were taught about things we already knew really or like what parents would tell their kids.
There wasn't much diversity at all, for the girls we were taught about straight sex and protection and everything but there was nothing on gay sex.
They didn't teach us about other genders or homosexuality at all, i feel like their method was 'make sure they don't get pregnant' rather than teach everyone about love and whatnot.
Schools should teach kids about the variety of genders and sexualities because there are so many kids questioning themselves and if they don't get told about it they think of themselves as abnormal and can cause them distress and mental problems.

Honestly I remember leaving the class and thinking 'that wasn't helpful to me at all', people like me have had the internet to rely on because we know that we will not get taught it in school.”
