The pride guide : a guide to sexual and social health for LGBTQ youth / Jo Langford.

Langford, Jo, (author.).

Summary:

Sex education materials meant to explain important basics to kids are too-often not written with an empathic understanding of what those basics are. This is particularly obvious regarding books that include LGBTQ identities. Even when they do hit the mark, many have a limited scope and don?t take into account the practical realities of developing sexuality. 0The Pride Guide is written explicitly for the almost ten percent of teenagers who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, or any of the unique identities that are not heterosexual/ cisgender. It explores sex, dating, relationships, puberty, and both physical and online safety in one resource.0The issue, today, is not whether or not queer youth will get sex education. The issue is how and where they will gather information and whether or not the information they gather with be applicable, unreliable, or exploitative. Equipping teens and their families with knowledge and self-confidence, this work provides the best protection against the unfortunate.
