So, who do we complain to if it’s, you know, not that great?

July 16, 2009 by Brigitte Pellerin 3 Comments

What do they teach them in school in Britain? This:

NHS guidance is advising school pupils that they have a “right” to an enjoyable sex life and that regular sex can be good for their cardiovascular health.

The advice appears in leaflets circulated to parents, teachers and youth workers and is meant to update sex education by telling students about the benefits of enjoyable sex…

The leaflet carries the slogan “an orgasm a day keeps the doctor away”.

Sorry, I can’t find the strength to criticize. I’m too busy laughing.

Andrea is laughing: “Good for cardiovascular health”? What happened to team sports and gym memberships? Or is that too old-school. (I assume they also see sleepless nights with a crying baby and chasing after a two-year-old as engendering fitness stamina.)

    Britain has the highest rate of teen pregnancy in Western Europe.

    Have the powers that be over there really not connected the dots to figure out why that is?

    Last time I checked, sex was still a very popular activity. I don’t think anyone, especially teenagers, need brochures promoting it’s benefits.

    Well hold on there, Janette. Between the fluffy magazine pieces about how to please your man, the fluffy newspaper pieces on how to have good sex, the full scale billboard ads showing models wearing next to nothing plus the billboards showing people engaged in the act itself–I still find there are one or two places where I’m not confronted with invitations to sex. I believe the Brits are probably trying to compensate for this.

    (Sigh.)
