One part of my job that I love is educating women about sex. Though we see women of all ages there are still many misconceptions about safe sexual practices. I often see women who struggle to use condoms though they know they should. Of course I understand why it is challenging but I also see women struggle with years of pain due to STI’s and other sexual issues that were preventable. I think this teenager sums up in a funny way why it is so important for women to stand up for their sexual health. See what you think. http://www.popsugar.com/love/Reasons-Use-Condoms-37407602
This teen got suspended after her amazing sex ed assignment.
