  • What to do if one has been raped or sexually assaulted (98.2%)
  • Basics of reproduction, how babies are made, pregnancy and birth (98%)
  • Dealing with pressure to have sex (97.7%)
  • How to talk with a girlfriend, boyfriend or partner about not having sex (96.9%)
  • How to talk with parents about sex and relationship issues (96.7%)
  • How to deal with the emotional issues and consequences of being sexually active (93.9%)
  • How to talk with a girlfriend, boyfriend or partner about birth control and sexually transmitted diseases (92.9%)
  • Abstinence until marriage (91.2%)

  • Effectiveness and failure rates of birth control methods, including condoms (88.9%)
  • How to get tested for HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases (88.3%)

Selama ini pendidikan seks di NC hanya menitikberatkan pada "abstinence" (menghindari hubungan seks) sebelum nikah. Tarik ulur tengah terjadi seputar perlunya kurikulum diperluas dengan metode kontrasepsi dan pencegahan penyakit menular melalui hubungan seks.
