Exactly. I remember in my 6th grade sex ed class being taught abstinence in addition to everything else. In fact, I remember them saying that abstinence was the only 100% sure way to avoid pregnancy, STDs, etc. But they also taught proper use of a condom, what masturbation was, etc. and didn't say that waiting for marriage is what Jesus wants you to do. It was a more clinical thing that our parents were involved in, homework-wise. And they certainly didn't talk about best methods to straddle your vibrator, how to control your gag reflex, or what those holes in the bathroom stalls were.
