Did you know medically accurate, age-appropriate sex education is only mandatory in 17 states across the country? That six states actually require instruction discriminating against LGBTQ+ people?
This is why we created [[link removed]] Queer Sex Ed [[link removed]], a five-part video series highlighting important, queer-inclusive conversations about sexual health that aren't being discussed in schools. It is a bold and intimate look into how LGBTQ+ young people learn about and discuss sex, diving into discussions normally reserved for friend groups in private.
The conversations are observed by professional sex educators Dr. Lexx Brown-James and Melina Gaze, who weigh in throughout to offer fact-based context and help frame the conversations from mental health and global perspectives. Queer Sex Ed is sex education for youth who lack access to this necessary and potentially life-saving information.
The first episode of Queer Sex Ed, about the portrayal of sex in media, is available to watch now. [[link removed]]
Look for new episodes of Queer Sex Ed at itgetsbetter.org [[link removed]] every Wednesday for the next four weeks. Special thanks to our media partner INTO [[link removed]] and app partner Hornet [[link removed]] for helping us get the word out about Queer Sex Ed.
