Life Skills; Monday, First Period [02/13].
Once again, the class was in the classroom module for the danger shop, and, once again, they had a guest! So hopefully, everyone would be on their best behavior, especially considering the subject matter.
Especially consider the week.
"Tomorrow," Summer started, "is, of course, Valentine's Day, and while I could easily spend a whole lesson…hell, even a whole unit...on the commercialization and bullshitization of most holidays, especially this particular one, it would not be very useful or helpful to the class, and the only life skill it would likely tie into is a healthy distaste for capitalism. Instead, we are going to focus on the romantic nature of the holiday, and what it usually entails, and so, that's right, folks, we're doing the sex ed class.
"And while I do have plenty of experience in this topic," Summer, don't tell that to your students, "I am not, categorically speaking, an expert or a professional." Unless OnlyFans counted. "But luckily, we do have a professional expert on this topic here on our very own island. And so, just like we did with Dr. Halstead last week, I'm going to turn the class over to our very own sex shop proprietress and, if I'm not mistaken, former Sex Ed instructor here at the school, Miss Irene Adler. Irene?"
Irene graced the class with a bright smile and a teensy, fluttered little wave. "Morning, my friends. If we've not met before, it's nice to do so now! And yes, Summer is correct – I'm a bit of an expert in this particular field, and the very first thing I want to reassure you all: there's no such thing as a stupid question, and no shame in not knowing something. Sex is a very tricky, fluid thing, and it means a lot of different things to different people. It's not, despite what Fox News might have you think, as simple as shoving Tab A into Slot B, believe it or not."
And with that, Irene actually pulled out a few incredibly detailed diagrams, and carefully went over the very basics of how some people have a this, some people have a that, very occasionally some people have both, and that sometimes it's not appropriate to acknowledge what they have at all.
"But," Irene concluded, because she had brought goodies other than the diagrams, "paramount to all of this is being safe."
And thus, she had brought party favors.
Especially consider the week.

And yes, she was pocketing some items for possible future use. Just in case something should come up.
