    Sometimes hearing y’all talk about health Ed classes that actually taught y’all stuff is wild to me. I live in a red state. Sex education for me was basically a two-day seminar where they showed us pictures of the gnarliest venereal diseases they could find. Like that’s it. We didn’t see a condom at all. Learning about condoms for us was first hand. In a Motel 6 that took cash with my girl after we bought a few different brands to try them out.

      Given my state and area I grew up I’m surprised. When I joined the military I got the bombardment of “here are STDs!” Scare tactics. And I can’t recall they talked about condoms. Pretty crazy.
