    I agree about teaching the ins and outs of each anatomy - like periods for girls and erections for boys. Could also teach them about pleasure - what are orgasms and how it works in the body.

    But i don’t think its the right age to teach how to give each other orgasms

      I think young children, probably 8-10, should be told the full ins and outs of how sex works mechanically. This will help them learn to identify what someone is doing to them if they’re being abused, and why they’re doing it.

      Even if kids know everything about sex, they don’t really have sex drives yet and aren’t really going to chase after that. I think the benefits far outweigh the risks since.
