A Teen Magazine Printed An Anal Sex Guide And People Freaked Out, Especially This Lady

The guide was meant to be inclusive and informative for teens interested in anal sex. Conservatives lost their shit (pun intended).

In an effort to educate teens about all kinds of sex (since a lot of people aren’t into the whole penis-in-vagina thing), Teen Vogue published “A Guide to Anal Sex” this week.

And parents are outraged.

“Parents are rightfully angry and pushing back against this agenda to sexualize and sodomize our children,” Elizabeth Johnston, who calls herself the “Activist Mommy,” posted on Facebook.

Johnston’s “love for Jesus Christ” caused her to burn the magazine and encourage parents to boycott stores where it’s sold.

The guide in question was written by Gigi Engle.

“When it comes to your body, it’s important that you have the facts,” she wrote. “Being in the dark is not doing your sexual health or self-understanding any favors. With that sentiment in mind, we’re here to lay it all out for you when it comes to anal sex.”

The magazine’s target audience is 11 to 17-year-olds. And while Engle does not pressure teens into having anal sex in her piece, she also doesn’t bash it.

“The anus is full of nerve endings that, for some, feel awesome when stimulated,” she explained.

Predictably, the Internet lost its collective mind.

I monitor the webmaster email and have been inundated with hate mail saying we promote sodomy and want teens to get AIDS.

The article seeks to be inclusive for LGBTQ youth, including those who don’t identify within the normal gender norms matching their biological genitalia.

It refers to penis-haver’s as “prostate owners” and vagina-haver’s as “non-prostate owners.”

The piece tells potential anal sex-havers that they have to start small, use lube, only use sex toys that have flared bases, and be prepared for some shit.

“You will come in contact with some fecal matter,” Engle writes. “You are entering a butthole. It is where poop comes out. Expecting to do anal play and see zero poop isn’t particularly realistic. It’s NOT a big deal.”

People who don’t believe in sex education, people who don’t believe that gay people are real and people who voted for Donald Trump were quick to take to their keyboards:

Interestingly, some progressives were also upset by the piece — feeling that it wasn’t informative or inclusive enough. The diagrams included did not include a clitoris and the piece didn’t mention STD’s or other potential health risks.

Still other readers appreciated the piece and Engle’s goal to educate teens. Because teens are going to have sex whether you teach them about it or not:

As for the author herself? She seems to be feeling just fine about the reaction to her piece:

Engle’s other pieces include how to give consent for BDSM, how to masturbate with a penis and how to masturbate with a vagina.

The Activist Mommy’s other content includes “How to use your womb as a weapon” and populate the world with “freedom-loving Americans and Christians.”

That’s a link I won’t share.
