(This is mostly from the point of view of an intellegent being raised in a cesspool of non-wisdom, so feel free to tell me how things work wherever you are.)
The quality of Sex Education depends on one very important factor: What kind of person is teaching the kid. If the kid is learning from a high school Health teacher, they're not going to take it seriously, because they're in school. (Or thats how it seems in my school.) If you're being educated by a parent, we all know how parents feel about their kids having sex. If kids have their parents educate them at too young of an age, their parent's probably going to encourage abstainance. If they're learning about it from TV, in the case of tv stations like MTV and that sort brainwashing the Youth of America, the kids get educated only on how to become more attractive and more "sexy", so they can have sex early on and become "experts" at it. In many situations, it's very difficult for a person to formulate their own opinion on this sort of thing, unless they actually do take the time to observe the matter from all sides of the issue.
