Each spring semester at Montana State University – Northern, a few American Indian students quietly participate in their required Sex Education course. Often reluctant to engage in discussions related to sexual behaviors and diversity, American Indian students may fail to engage in the course. Offering a lesson about two-spirited people early in the sex education course improves instructional conversation and generates course engagement for American Indian students. This proposal serves to further develop the two-spirited people lesson and include a guest presentation from a two-spirit person.

This lesson helps explain to students the most common sexual identity terms. It also explores how culture plays a part in our attitudes about gender roles and expectations. An understanding of these concepts is vital in any discussion about sexual feelings, attractions, relationships, behaviors and decision-making. This lesson sets the tone for an inclusive environment and affirms all young people. It also acknowledges the range of ways that people experience their sexuality.

Puberty brings a natural curiosity and growing sexual interest. Yet, young people are bombarded with various and often conflicting messages about sex and sexual behaviors. Some of the messages likely come from parents, guardians, schools and other responsible sources. However, they can often be drowned out by competing messages from media, peers and society. These often inaccurate, unrealistic and, in many cases, developmentally inappropriate views of sex can create pressure on young people to become sexually involved
with another person before they are ready. This lesson helps students differentiate among the many competing messages and messengers. It helps them become critical media and popular culture consumers. It also considers both the positive and negative impact social media can have on relationships and examines the risks of sexting.

Being able to identify characteristics of healthy and unhealthy relationships and recognize when someone might be in an unhealthy situation are important. This helps young people sustain good and nourishing friendships, family relationships, and romantic and sexual relationships. This lesson asks students to identify traits they look for in a relationship and qualities they can bring to a healthy relationship. It uses age-appropriate examples they may recognize from their own and their peers’ experiences to help them differentiate the sometimes blurry lines between healthy and unhealthy relationship traits. Finally, the lesson identifies different kinds of abuse. It encourages students to identify trusted adults they might turn to for help if they are in an unhealthy or abusive relationship, or if they are unsure if their relationship is healthy.

There continues to be a lack of health sex education that is queer and trans inclusive. Many of us are not exposed to our resources until later in life yet must learn everything regarding heterosexual sex practices and resources. This feels extremely homophobic and transphobic given the health induced epidemic we as a community experienced 40 years ago during the HIV/AIDS crisis. Now, in the midst of another global pandemic, reminiscent of survival’s guilt and potential recollections of the past and feelings of “we’ve been here before," we must educate and provide adequate resources around health education. In this short I engage in a reflective platíca where I revisit the first date with my partner where I learn about his status of being HIV+. The aim is to understand how we can move towards destigmatizing sex in our communities that are impacted by HIV and provide current resources, practices, and ultimately share how I am positively in love.

Rights, Respect, Responsibility (3Rs) is a comprehensive, inclusive, sexuality education curriculum intended for use with students in Kindergarten through 12th grade. Its lessons are age-appropriate, beginning with basic lessons about friendship and safety, and introducing more complex concepts as students age. Learning about good communication, safety in relationships, and growth and development lays a foundation that can support healthy relationships and healthy behaviors throughout a person’s lifetime. This K-12 curriculum, therefore, is a collection of lesson plans on a wide range of topics including: self-understanding, family, growth and development, friendship, sexuality, life skills, and health promotion. Rights, Respect, Responsibility was informed by both the National Teacher Preparation Standards in Sexuality Education and fully meets the National Sexuality Education Standards.
