75 Funniest Sex Education Questions Students Really Asked
Sex Education Questions By Jane Morris
Sex education is that wonderfully awful class filled with weird and wild questions with that we love to hate. It’s awkward and uncomfortable for everyone involved, but boy does it lead to some hilarious comments!
To commiserate in our collective misery, I asked a handful of sex ed teachers to share the funniest or most awkward questions they’ve ever received from students. And man oh man, did they deliver!
So suit up, don some protection, and maybe a spelunking hat, cause we going in deep. You might think you’ve seen the strangest and silliest questions to ever come out of sexual ed class, but you’d be wrong. These beauties will blow you away and prove exactly why comprehensive sex education is a MUST.
Sex Education Questions: the Good, the Bad, and the Downright Hilarious
In sex education, students are often allowed to anonymously write down their queries for the teacher to answer in front of the class. Most times this makes for quite an interesting Q&A session!
Here is a list of sex ed questions asked by students with the hypothetical answers I would give in italics (which is probably why it’s a good thing I don’t teach sex ed).
These are real questions asked by real students. Some questions have been minorly edited for spelling, grammar, profanity, or for the sake of readability. However, all of them demonstrate why we should be teaching sex ed in school…
Because these questions show that without proper education, humanity’s chances of future propagation are very low. ????
Funniest Questions about Puberty and Anatomy
Puberty is a rough time for anyone. The body is changing, young people start engaging more with their sexuality, and there’s a lot of adjustment they enter more mature bodies.
So to mark that graceful change from child to adulthood, here are some top-notch questions from sex ed about puberty and anatomy!

TMI Sex Education Questions
From becoming more sexually active to sexually harrassing teachers, adolescence is a time of changing and challenging behaviours. Leave it to teenagers to ask ALL the questions. (…Even those that probably shouldn’t be posed to an entire class.)
These questions are a bit TMI, but hey, if not in sexual education class, when is the best time to ask them?

Questions Better Left For Google and Not Your Sex Education Teacher
Teachers know A LOT. Heck, some teachers are even accustomed to teaching furries!
But the amount of knowledge teachers have might not include ALL sexual slang and terminology. In fact, it probably shouldn’t!
These questions are definitely best left to Google.
Concerning Sex Education Questions About Intimacy
We’re living in a time of regressive anti-gay bills, concerns about gender identity, and attempts to hinder necessary courses of sexual education. Then, you read some questions from students on sexual behaviour, and the need for sex ed becomes all too real.
Obviously, plenty of sex education questions will be about sex itself. These questions are, by far, the most… uh… creative.
Yeah, let’s go with creative.

Funny Sex Ed Questions About Pregnancy
Pregnancy is a wide and complex topic, particularly in the workplace. From workplace infertility to pregancy to miscarriages to maternity leave, it’s hard to convey the complications of pregancy and its place in adult life to a sexual education class.
Luckily, students don’t care about that. They just have ludicrous quesions!
Sex ed can’t cover everything related to pregnancy, and clearly, these kids are prepped to ask the important questions.

Questions I was Asked While Pregnant
Another strange aspect of being pregnant while teaching is that some of your students might be expecting too. That’s what happens when we don’t teach birth control!
During my first pregnancy, I had two students with unintended pregnancies and an 11th grader with a 3-year-old son. I would try to connect with them sometimes, but they never really seemed bothered by the pregnancy the way I was.
“Aren’t you tired?” I would ask. “Not really,” they’d reply.
“Aren’t you scared?” I asked. “Not really,” they’d answer. For some reason, this baby stuff was much more troublesome for me!
In addition to this, I had students ask lots of bizarre questions while I was pregnant. These are just a few gems I jotted down during that time.
Finally, a student asked me how many months pregnant I was. A few minutes after I told him he stood up and announced, “September! She had sex in September!”
Funny Sex Education Questions: A Necessary Evil for Informed Decisions
Have I missed some zany or common questions you’ve heard sexual education classes? Then leave them in the comments below!
We may both equally love and love-to-hate these important questions, but they are important. They “why” of why we need sex education is blatantly clear.
But also, we all need to download about these questions too. How else can us teachers stay sane?
So if you need a rant or a space to share, head over to the Vent Forum to share your thoughts in a safe, anonymous, troll-free space.
Alternatively, you can follow the Teacher Misery socials for more hilarity and no shortage of memes!
But whatever you do, do stay sane. It’s a Wild West out there, and the world of comprehensive sex education is no different. But the schools teaching sex education and the teachers answering all the ridcuolous questions they spawn are doing the world a favour.
Because at the end of the day, nobody likes teaching pubescent kids about the many usages of their genitalia.

These are spot on! One time, I had a 1st grader ask me if I got pregnant by eating an egg with a baby inside. It was hilarious.
