Teaching our sons to not sexually harass, assault or demean women is not our education system’s job. It’s ours. All parents, and siblings and extended family members as well.

We teach our children in how we behave and what we accept without comment in our media, or in the world at large. It may be obvious to us when a guy harassing women on tv is the bad guy, but maybe the kids aren’t figuring that part out.

It needs to be called out explicitly so they grow up calling it out in their friends, rather than going along to get along.

Teaching bodily autonomy and consent should 100% be part of sex education.
