A Critical Analysis of Sexuality Education in the United States
explores the development of sexuality education in North America
and uses economic, legal, and psychological paradigms to identify
and trace exclusionary programming and practices in schools. By
analyzing legal and political documents, as well as state and
private curricula, this insightful text considers the historical
and contemporary experiences of adolescents in connection to the
social structures of sexuality education. Challenging the current
state of sex education in the United States, in terms of both
content and delivery, the chapters succinctly illustrate how
schools are failing to meet the developmental needs of all
students. Student perspectives and evidence-based research
demonstrate that an exclusionary curriculum is failing to equip
students with the knowledge and understanding they require to
undergo a process of empowerment about their sexuality, and engage
in safe, informed, and consensual sexual activity. Finally, by
employing a rights-based approach to sexuality education, the
author offers important recommendations for change in state and
federal curricula. Offering unique and comprehensive insight into
the state of sex education in the United States, this text will be
of great interest to graduate and postgraduate students, academics,
researchers, policy-makers, and libraries in the fields of
sexuality education, education policy and politics, sociology of
education, gender studies, and curriculum studies.
