As a speaker, I often have the opportunity to stand before rooms full of young people, usually middle school & high school girls, and talk about the awkward topics: sex, birth control, period cramps, pornography, masturbation, and all the other things they desperately want answers about but are afraid to say out loud. Our culture has attempted to overcome the awkwardness surrounding these subjects by turning them into animated videos, casual conversations, and constant jokes.
