Sue Johanson Quotations

As long as I'm having fun, I'm not quitting.

Americans are a decade behind Canada when it comes to sex education and understanding their bodies.

They are uncomfortable talking about sex because they don't want people to think they know about it.

We teach teens what we think they ought to know, and we never tell them what they want to know.

It's sad that the most glorious of sexual experiences can make us feel guilty, ashamed, embarrassed, and abnormal.

Sex is... perfectly natural. It's something that's pleasurable. It's enjoyable and it enhances a relationship. So why don't we learn as much as we can about it and become comfortable with ourselves as sexual human beings because we are all sexual?

If you can't laugh about sex, you shouldn't be doing it.

Kids and adults have sex for many, many reasons... Put out a question box.

If you don't know about it, you can't get it.

Kids are all computer-savvy. Sit down and write to your parents on the computer. And just say, I have some questions and I'm scared. There's some stuff I don't know and I really need to talk to you about sex. Tear it off and put it on their pillow. They'll read it.

The other thing that helps a great deal in schools is if they have a sex-ed teacher who comes into the school. She's not the gym teacher, who teaches swimming and basketball and field hockey. I'd love it if it was a male-and-female team, but that seldom happens.

If they ask me any question about any contraceptive, I can tell them what it does, how it works, but we never encourage it, we only encourage abstinence.

I would love it if women could stand bare-butt naked after a shower - in front of a full-length mirror - and take a look at their bodies.

They don't have the language or the skills or the knowledge - and if you put them all together, you have a complete communication block.

I have a fantasy that might be fun. Why don't we try it?

Get to like your own body.

Females do not have orgasms every time they have sex.

I have a huge problem with pornography.
