Planned Parenthood’s Center for Sex Education executive director Bill Taverner is advocating for greater “porn literacy” in education because all people are “sexual beings” from birth. “[We have] in our society, an assumption of asexuality of people with intellectual disabilities,” Taverner said in 2015. “It’s a myth that’s perpetuated, and really we are all sexual beings from birth until death.”
From Daily Caller:
“I think that there’s this yearning for information that young people have that… hasn’t changed,” he said, acknowledging that some of this information is bad or inaccurate. “[The] delivery of how we get information is quite different. I think that the internet is a major influence on how people learn about sexuality. There’s access to erotica, pornography. That was very different for young people 30 years ago. It’s certainly not as accessible, certainly not as instantaneous. So there’s a lot of information that is useful.”
