'If a porn site for teenagers helps them understand sex, then I am all for it' says Ulrika Jonsson
Not necessarily when I was being taught it. At that point I wasn’t quite sure what to make of all the plumbing and feats of engineering required to make this monumental act of love and pleasure happen.The suggestion in a tweet by journalist Flora Gill last week there should be some form of 'entry-level porn for teens' more than whet my appetitelast week that there should be some form of “entry-level porn for teens” more than whet my appetite.
But I repeatedly come to the conclusion that we are failing our children in a crucial area: Sex education. Vigorous sex can be enjoyable. But if we teach our children one thing at school while they experience something totally different in real life, there is clearly a problem. For many parents this will be awkward. Others will object on religious grounds. But we must never lose sight of the fact we are building the next generation.We desperately need to change the narrative around sex and its education. Porn might seem like a harmless interlude offering brief titillation, but as a prospectus for future relationships it is very damaging.
We have come a long way in discussions about our bodies and our sexuality, yet this crucial element has been largely ignored. It was purely a dabble of objectification and puerile, momentary lust in some warped quid pro quo for all those times I’ve walked past scaffolding or cars occupied by men who’ve viewed me as totty, a piece of meat or a symbol of their sexual arousal.
