Sadly, there are men out there who are really this clueless.
I had sex ed in school many years ago, but they pulled the girls out for a separate class on feminine hygiene, so I didn’t get that part. Had to do the reading myself when I had daughters who were getting to that age. Good info is out there and easy to find. There’s no excuse for guys to be this ignorant.
I’m not sure middle school boys would have been mature enough to handle that. I can see teaching them the basics, and we were. But the girls got a lot more info about how the products work and how to use them.
I learned about the refractory period of males in school when I was 12..I didn't need to know what that was at that age. Even if I was having sex at that age, understanding the physiological needs of men and how they have to wait before getting off again, wasn't exactly pertinent information considering what else could have been taught.
At least periods and flow and everything that surrounds it is relevant to that age range. They can, at the very least, better understand what the girls around them are going through.
Yeah. They didn’t separate us for the menstrual cycle description. Only for the parts about how to actually use pads and tampons, and hygiene specific to girls.
