8 Future Methods for Men  Vas Injection  Vas Occlusion  Nifedipine-  hypertension drug, calcium channel blocker, dissolves calcium in heads of sperm  A Male hormonal contraceptive?  Immunocontraceptives-  vaccination to prevent sperm from maturing Future Methods for Women  Antimicrobial Gels-spermicide and microbicide  CatSper – (protein in sperm for motility)  women take medication that blocks CatSper, so sperm are unable to swim  HIV crisis has accelerated development for new microbicides and barrier methods to prevent sexually transmitted diseases

23 Acceptance – Do not ignore sexual orientation in schools-teach about differences – Remove social stigmas Support Bullying-recent stories in the news It Gets Better Project (http://www.itgetsbetter.org/)http://www.itgetsbetter.org/ HS clubs, mentoring, online resources

26  Handouts:  Dear Abby Letter on Oral Sex  Resource list (not comprehensive!)  Online Activity: “Adventures in Sex City”  Activity: Small Group Discussions of Current Sexuality Issues  Develop two discussion questions for assigned topic. ▪ Identify the target audience (i.e. age/grade level) ▪ Identify the concept or attitude for the discussion questions (i.e. understand STD implications of oral sex; acceptance of all sexual orientations)  Report back to group at large
