Consider Ageing

Working with young people around sexual health isn't just about being young, taking risks and enjoying sex.
In a comprehensive sexual health and relationships program we should also ask young people to consider ageing and sexuality. Why? Not just because all of us age. Not just out of respect, but also because this can give a mirror to the way media and dominant culture manipulates us as sexual beings. Acceptance of diversity is not just about GLBTIQ issues. It is also about acceptance of ageing sexuality, acceptance of non monagamies, acceptance of POSITVE SEXUALITIES regardless.

Adios Barbie has recently posted a series about ageing and sexuality/body image/beauty/etcetc.
Well worth a look. CLICK HERE  Remember teaching moments don't always focus on STIs, condom use and respectful relationships.
