Will We Ever Figure Out How to Talk to Boys About Sex?

Teenagers and young men still don’t have the right vocabulary. Can we help them get there?

By Peggy Orenstein

Ms. Orenstein is the author of “Boys & Sex: Young Men on Hookups, Love, Porn, Consent and Navigating the New Masculinity.”

Are young black men really having difficulties asking to be pegged by white women in bikinis on the bed, who appears to be suggesting (agreeing to?) vegetables and fisting instead of her white finger? (As if the tongue and hotdog emojis upthread just weren't shocking enough.)

I mean, you had the choice of whatever race-colored emojis you wanted to suggest who is penetrating whom... and the young black man's last thought appears to be asking for it.  I wonder if they will try to use this article in the public schools as a conversation-starter in the New York Times schools project that is always being promoted?  Sad.
