Don't you think it's about time we had a special section for "Sex Education for Adolescents"?


I don't mean this in a derogatory sense..we were all adolescents and knowledge is priceless from whatever source...but it is becoming obvious by the volume alone of some of these questions that this section for "Men's Health" has beome anything but. The reading audience that we have is not really equipped to handle some of the questions posed by us "older folks"

I have to agree with you, if for no other reason than the simple fact that some questions that are often posed are repeated quite often. Like penis size, masturbation issues and the like. But the freedom to ask questions in a non embarassing way is becoming more and more crucial in our society where less and less good information is actually available to adolescents these days. Not everyone has role models they can talk to about these issues. And certainly a number of grown men don't feel comfortable talking about them with younger men. Heck some men don't feel comfortable talking about it with anyone. However, some of the more repeated questions and questions related to sexuality and puberty may be more appropriate in a subsection for men's health. Then again, you will always have the dimwits who get on, ask stupid questions, or worse yet, give horrible answers. But I guess it's the nature of the beast.

i agree

good idea

Or perhaps a sex section in general


The Sextion

they should create an id system where only adults can view adult related questions...

I wish the would put all these pregnant questions in a different category too... every 10 questions here is about how to get pregnant or i think I'm preg and most are teens who are getting advice how to get pregnant.

Think about how many teens who got preg from the advice they received on this site.

Or couldn't there be a banner with links? For "Is my penis the normal size?" click here. For "Is masturbation okay?" click here. For "How tall will I be?" click here.

Seriously, though, we were all adolescents and these things plagued our minds at one point, too. With a little effort, you can sift through the questions. But, it is a problem that questions of different topics do sometime get lost in the shuffle.

What makes me more queasy is the adults who come into this section because they like to talk with teenagers about their private parts. Maybe there could be a special section for them, too.
