Thread Name: BS: Sexual Literacy: Not Enough of it.
Subject: RE: BS: Sexual Literacy: Not Enough of it.
An absolute core principle of sexual literacy is recognizing behavior boundaries. That is to say that an individual and ONLY that individual owns his or her sexual behavior and reproductive system.

That means that said individual is the ONLY ONE that may give permission for sexual activity either alone or with another(s). That means that the individual is empowered to make their own contraception choices.

Accepting this principle is core to one's being sexually literate. Anyone who thinks they may make these decisions for another is sexually ILLiterate.

Unfortunately, too many people think they have the right to make these decisions for others. THEY are sexually ILLiterate.
