How we all fund pornography 3

14.  Incomplete Information and Its Consequences

Once, hi, boy meets girl, and the first thing that comes into their head is sex. They feel they need to have sex with this person. You know why? That’s how we introduced them to the opposite sex. That’s how we introduced them to whoever they have sex with.

We constantly give them incomplete information or even false information altogether, like the lady whose mum said to her, “If a stone falls in the air, it will crack.” That was false information. That’s not actually how it works. If a man touches your shoulder, you don’t get pregnant. If someone who has HIV touches your shoulder, you don’t get infected. That’s not how these things work.By giving out incomplete information, we’ve left younger people vulnerable. Now, they have to go and search out that information themselves.

15.  The Story of Misinformation

Good story. There was this lady from Nigeria whose mum had told her that if a man touches her, she was going to get pregnant. On the first day of her menstruation—her very first menstruation—a random guy in class mistakenly hit her.

The girl was crying the whole day that she was pregnant. How do you get pregnant because someone mistakenly bumped into you in class? It technically means she had been afraid of all her classmates all the while, because she kept feeling like, “Oh, now my period has come.” Menstruation is a conversation for another day.

16.  Silence Also Misleads

There’s another place we give young people wrong information. Secondly, by running away from sexual conversations completely, we fund pornography because what we’re doing is denying the biology of sex.

Excuse me, if you never talk to your child about sex, they will still get horny because it’s part of their biological programming. If that doesn’t happen after a certain age, we might have to do a hormone test to find out what’s happening, because it ought to happen. That you did not talk about it does not mean the urges will not come.

It’s like saying, if I don’t send my child to school, they will not grow up.
