Intersectional sex ed is possible, but what does that mean? Sex ed should be as robust and diverse as young people are today. And it’s on us to work towards bridging the gaps in our curricula, so all youth see themselves and their experiences thoughtfully represented in sexuality education.

Young people deserve to have equal access to comprehensive sex ed that:

• Shows a variety of different body sizes, abilities, ethnicities, gender presentations, and more in curricula;
• Addresses and works to undo the hyper-sexualization of BIPOC women and femmes;
• Challenges single issue approaches and instead considers how racism and oppression, couple with classism and misogyny, affect marginalized youth; and
• Calls out and rejects any white, cisgender, heteronormative approaches to sexuality education.
