When Do We Discuss It

With all that is going on and all that has gone on in the past, when is the right time for the collective body of believers to discuss our sexual health?

My absolute belief is that we start NOW and at every seminar, conference, revival, woman's day program, men's program, church anniversary, usher boards anniversary, pastors appreciation, marriage ministry, singles ministry, youth ministry and any other proposed events where we have speakers, teachers, and instructors.

We need to have open candid discussion on what we the believers need to know about. Some may not agree, but in the right setting I believe young people will learn how to stay abstinence not by just saying don't do it. We all know how well that works, but by being able to ask questions and get honest answers. I think adults can and will open up if they don't feel they are being preached at. Instead asked to engage in meaningful conversation with speakers that allow them to ask questions as well as give answers.

The world we live on is complex and the humans we share it with are all sexual beings our creator saw fit to make us this way so why shouldn't we talk about at least one of the things we all have in common.

  1. Now you know that's probably not going to happen.First of all kids talking to their parents about sexual health mmm I don't think so. My Parents have been divorced since I was little and I was mainly raised by my mom. You actually think my mom and I talked about sex i don't think so. Now my dad I can talk to him about that. I learned about sex when I was a teenager by watching Talk Sex With Sue Johansen, watching porn, and the health class Demo in high school. The teacher told us to stand up and pair up boy girl style, he gave us plastic cups with water half filled to the top and said spit in it, now boys poor some liquid in the girls cup and girls do the same. He said that is what sex is the exchange of liquids.
    Maybe one day the church can come together and talk about sexual health but until then I think they should hold simanors for the youth and adults separately and bring it up then. When I was a teenager we had a youth retreat and at the end of the day the boys went to one area and the girls anther. I don't know about the girls but the boys did talk about sex with some of the male leaders of the church. The main point people identify with their own kind.
