the top 10 creepiest sex ed videos

by Violet Blue on January 20, 2010

If you’re reading this blog post on eros.topnewsdigest.com, it has been stolen and reproduced without permission from tinynibbles.com. Yes, I’m going to do something about it. They are stealing from a number of sex bloggers.

In other, erm, news, I found a link to The Top 10 Most Bizarre Sex Ed Videos, which I have re-titled the most creepiest sex ed videos because I think that if I was to play one for my cat, who is neutered, he would be made to feel deeply uncomfortable. And these films were originally made to show to kids, as nonfiction! Kids who likely grew up to dictate abstinence policies in public schools, or testify at Prop 8 hearings… Watch them with friends and a cocktail, and laugh. Snip:

2. No One Knows When The Homosexual Is About
This is a 1950s video that warns kids to avoid older members of their own sex who are too friendly because those people might be sick in the head. The sickness? Homosexuality. How does one spot this dreaded homosexual? Well, it’s not easy because *cue dramatic music* he may appear NORMAL.

7. A Girl Has Three Holes Between Her Legs
(…) The weirdest moment is at 1:14 when you see the accurate diagram of the female anatomy the student’s been working with and how her perception of a naked woman will forever be that of an unhappy, grown-up member of the Peanuts Gang. (see the rest, ranker.com, via Our Kitchen Sink)

“Not all of these videos deserve ridicule: the one where a mother walks in on her son masturbating and tells him she is sorry for intruding may be a bit awkward for instance, but I agree very much with the message.”

Actually, that was the most (unintentionally) hilarious video on the list. While the video was promoting a “positive” message about masturbation, the way it modeled having the parent handling it was definitely not the best. Believe me, the last words a boy caught masturbating wants to hear out of his mother’s mouth is “It felt good, didn’t it?”

Years of therapy later….

I think that big sadface in the second video is actually a chin – you can see her lips above it when the camera pans up briefly.

I learned today that a woman who is menstruating can wash her hair… BUT ONLY IF SHE DRIES IT REALLY FAST!!! LOL.

Also, the sailor’s reaction to the doctor telling him he has Gonorrhea: “But doc, she told me she was married!” Priceless.

I mean, I’ve known some demanding homosexuals, but I can’t remember the last time Ian yelled at me while I was in my underwear about something that didn’t have to do with why I wasn’t onstage…

“…a sickness that was not visible like smallpox, but no less dangerous and contagious.”

Contagious?

Heterosexuality is apparently a very frail thing, to be so easily and irreversibly swept away by the first friendly stranger to come along.

Not all of these videos deserve ridicule: the one where a mother walks in on her son masturbating and tells him she is sorry for intruding may be a bit awkward for instance, but I agree very much with the message. And two of the videos were meant for teaching people with mental disabilities I suspect (the three holes one and the why does a penis get hard one).
