Part way through I tell my story of how I got into doing this job in 1998 / 1999 in order to tell an autoethnography which illuminates the problems which sex ed, sexual health services, and youth services have faced over the years. I think it reveals something interesting about what culture war and austerity have done and how this may result in a doubling down on a narrow sex ed which doesn’t seem to serve anyone. Here’s the Department for Education 1943 document I read from https://education-uk.org/documents/boardofed/1943-sex-ed.html I relied on ‘School sex education: policy and practice in England 1870 to 2000’ by Jane Pilcher https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/14681810500038848 The Politics of Sex Education Policy in England and Wales and The Netherlands since the 1980s JANE LEWIS and TRUDIE KNIJN https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-social-policy/article/abs/politics-of-sex-education-policy-in-england-and-wales-and-the-netherlands-since-the-1980s/8913118BB205C133930FED2E05240864 Seventy years of sex education in Health Education Journal: a critical review Padmini Iyer and Peter Aggleton https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0017896914523942 Here’s a useful document about sexual pleasure in RSE and that Pleasure leaflet debacle I was talking about https://shura.shu.ac.uk/16764/1/Pleasure%20Evaluation%202017%20FINAL%20final.pdf And you might be interested in this blog of mine I did last year about the state of RSE in the UK https://bishtraining.com/the-state-of-rse-in-the-uk/ Send in your questions / support the show / find things to buy here https://linktr.ee/culturesexrel
