My school’s sex ed was very traditional insofar is it was not about sexuality or identity, it was about anatomy, reproduction, and disease control.

Obama’s response had me tearing up at work. If you haven’t read that full story on HoNY, I highly recommend it. He’s such a class act and I’m so proud to have him as our president!
