Since my children were young, I have tried to talk to them appropriately for age about sex. They know where babies come from; They understand that all are the head of their body; They will not shudder if you talk about tampons.

But, as they become young men, sometimes I wonder while I am awake in bed, will they continue listening to their mother? What about the other teenagers in their lives? What else are they listening online and in the world? Who are your models to follow positive male?

This morning, I met the Tiktok Sexed account for Guys, directed by Students from Colby College. His goal is to teach young people how to make healthy decisions in their sexual lives, and when I tell you that my heart swollen …! A video talks about how intoxicated people cannot give their conscious consent; Another normalizes male friends who express platonic love for each other, another encourages people to verify friends who seem to be fighting.

And two who made me laugh? These training to respect women:

I love this account!

Now I am curious: how do you talk to your children about sex? Do you have any book that you like? Who do you consider models to follow positive male? (I admire sports, tutoring and vocal support of Steph Curry.) I love so much to all these sweet sweets. XO
