'I think I found one of your pornos'

Not at the Dinner Table is a podcast talking the talk that ruins Christmas. 

Australia has a national sex education curriculum, but it’s down to the states to deliver. Throw gender, sexuality, school location and cultural and linguistic diversity into the pot and you have a mixbag of experiences.   

So what does a good sex ed look like and what does one researcher say getting in the way?
