> Until this is part of state education

State sex education has been saturating youth in all the sex related artificial interventions while treating self-control as unrealistic at best and religious nonsense at worst. When do you think we’ll get an eruption of stoic self denial virtue from the state?

I'm not optimistic, no.

Not sure what nation's syllabus you refer to though, I would guess that it is USA based

There’s no need to bring gender ideology into this, the analogy is perfectly valid just referring to prophylaxis, hormonal medication, implants, and abortion. Those are commonly taught in schools around the globe.

Thanks for clarifying and apologies for misunderstanding.

I'm pro-sex-ed but not sure what that looks like in your locale.

What? US sex education advice is to be forceful and rapey because 'guys can't control themselves' or any other bullshit reason like this?
