Sex and Sexuality, Monday
Today, the instructors stood at the front of the class, Jon looking a little more awkward than usual and Hannibal looking as calm as ever.
"Sex can be extremely fun," Hannibal began.
Jon rolled his eyes. "'Sex' encompasses a large variety of activities. Which we are not going into depth about, but we are going to discuss."
"There are also many things that may not be explicitly sexual, but are involved in relationships nevertheless," Hannibal added, "and it is important to know your boundaries."
"Everybody has them," Jon said. "Things you enjoy, things you don't, things you actively despise. Things you aren't sure of. If you don't know what yours are, you could come up against them or have a partner come up against them before you realize."
"I should hope it goes without saying," Hannibal added, arching an eyebrow, "but any partner who deliberately crosses your boundaries once you have set them out is not a person you should remain with."
Jon was giving Hannibal an incredulous look for that, but he wasn't about to get into things in front of class.
Honestly, it's not as if Will had ever told him not to frame him for murder.
Jon sighed. "So yes, it is important to discuss your boundaries with a partner. Or at least communicate them. It could be as simple as saying 'stop', or you could sit down and have an entire discussion. Mostly that depends on you and the situation."
"So, we have another quiz for you," Hannibal said cheerfully. "We will not be reviewing these in class." He passed out pages with a quiz on them. "These are best gone over on your own the first time, so that you can consider some of the variety of things you might be interested in or not. You may also at a later date go over them with your partner. We'll even give you another copy if you would like to give them one."
"Why kill ten trees when you could kil twenty?" Jon snarked. "I also have a URL I can give you for an online version. Anyway, go over these. We're here if you have any questions about what's in them, what something means, or how to use them."
