THE STORY
OF NATHAN

his family talked openly
about all things, including
human sexuality.
However, it bothered him
that the terms they used to

“funny” names that the
family members had made
up. Since Jason had never
had any sexuality
education in school, he
wasn’t sure what the
correct words were.

discussion about sexual
anatomy because he was

wrong word and others
