i wish at my schools they had even talked about the biology of sex. in arizona, schools only get state funding if they teach abstinence only programs (which may partially explain the astonishing rate of teen pregnancy). however, even if they do talk somewhat about biology, there is no law that requires teachers to provide the students with medically acurate information. there have been reports that some schools tell the kids that if you have sex, you WILL get pregnant and WILL get an STD, there is not chance, they tell it in absolutes.
so I think the aspect of teaching the emotion involved with sex, is a small matter when compared to actually teaching the facts of sex in general, but it would be a good, yet difficult idea.
