SUMMARIZE
it has been a long time since high school for me. I graduated in 1988. But back then, we did have education about teenage pregnancy and STI's. I am not sure what is being taught in high schools today, but I do think the education is out there. You can't watch television without there being a commercial about a medication for various STI's. I think most education now is about teenage pregnancy. I could be wrong, but that is what I hear the most. I did read that fewer than half of high schools and less than one-fifth of middle schools teach sexual health education.
With all the sex that occurs in the media, why doesn’t anybody on the soaps or in movies get an STI? (Similarly, hardly anyone gets pregnant unless it’s a made-for-TV movie on the subject.) What messages do they convey about STIs and risk taking? Feel free to reference specific shows/movies.
Who should be responsible for safe sex? Should women take a more active role given that most contraceptive methods are made for women? What can men do to encourage safe sex?
Discuss the difference between HIV and AIDS.
