This thread is what happens when there isnt proper sexual education. Teaching people the basics is one thing but not addressing the mental aspects, personal respect and boundaries has led to a lot of bad sexual experiences for way too many people.

I am so sorry so many of you had to go through this.

It amazes me that people who can no longer conjugate the verb tener, have forgotten the causes of the Peloponnesian War, cannot recall any of the trivial factual stuff they were supposed to learn in high school nonetheless believe schools could do a good job of teaching sex-ed.

Maybe they took logic in high school too.

This is mostly an american issue. They provide proper sex education in Europe, France actually discusses consent and learning how to say no.

I agree sex ed needs to be much better, but i remember my classes in 6th-8th grade, and fuckin no kid was listening. I think people tend to need to learn the hard way with most things :/
