Evangelists for Teen Sex


All of which pales in comparison to what is not being taught on the Internet, where some outrageous amateurs have figured out how to outdo the bureaucratic "sex education" lobby. One new website calls itself "The Midwest Teen Sex Show." Its logo is a silhouette of two cows copulating. It is a series of infomercials for "comprehensive" adolescent indulgence.

The first episode is a celebration of female masturbation. The host of the series, 28-year-old Wisconsin mom Nikol Hasler, touts it as the original safe sex. They attempt to charm the viewer with jokey skits. When one girl offers another girl crack cocaine or methamphetamines, she replies, "No thanks! I'm going home to masturbate." Hasler then adds: "Masturbation is the anti-drug." She then tells teenage girls to find a vibrator, but suggests it's not a good idea to ask Dad.

The second episode turns into an attack ad on abstinence, which Hasler sees (correctly) as an impediment to her pro-sex message. She scowls at the idea: "First of all, it's really boring. All the cool kids are having sex. They're going to laugh at you if you're not."

They cut to video of a girl wearing an eye patch and drooling like an idiot with a caption that says "I'm saving myself for the right person." Hasler then adds, "It's also highly unrealistic that you're going to be able to save yourself for marriage. If you decide you're going to do that, then great. If you actually succeed, I feel bad for your future spouse." She asserts that sex takes practice, and that if you don't learn from a partner, you'll have to learn from pornography, or farm animals.

It's another example of reverse child pornography: adult sexual activity being promoted to children. And rather than do that which would protect children from this ghastly program, there are those Internet giants that are actually promoting it. More than 50,000 people subscribe to the podcast through Apple's iTunes. The "Midwest Teen Sex Show" is listed under iTunes' "Health" category, where it regularly lands in the top 10. It doesn't hurt that they encourage teens to subscribe "to enjoy the full quality of teen sex." Under each podcast on their website is the slogan "Sex is more fun when you share."

This is not a "health" show. It's a sex show, with even America's leading corporate promoters of teenage sexual activity and contraceptive distribution, such as Planned Parenthood, expressing reservations about the show's utter lack of medical expertise. In their own defense, the "Teen Sex Show" makers suggest they're only channeling their own jokey opinions, not scientific facts. "


Wrong. There's lots of preaching in this show. These people are evangelists for sex, as early as possible. Humorous skits can't deflect from their own don't-be-an-uncool-virginal-geek sermonettes. In an episode pushing birth control, Hasler suggests "Personally, I believe any girl over eight should be on the Pill. If you're old enough to bleed, you're old enough to be a statistic. It may have side effects. But so does pregnancy."


All of which may lead you to pine for the good old days when the public schools controlled your child's sex education.
