Us young folk in the present day rely very much on external forms of communication.  Cell phones, sidekicks, laptops, computers, the internet… Basically we’re cyborgs, yes it’s true.  There is nothing wrong with that, even though our elders tell us different.  So much can be done with modern technology. Has anyone considered comprehensive sex education using modern technology?  Why yes.

2009 Sex Tech, Focus on Youth Conference exists to do just that.  On March 22nd to the 23rd (I’m here now) in San Francisco is where it’s at.  This conference tackles everything including texting, online safety, media use, blogs, and vlogs, while including health issues young people face, such as sexuality, HIV/AIDS, STIs, and pregnancy. Sex Tech was created as a youth adult partnership conference to catalyze healthy choice making in young folk.  Who else to create a conference about youth and modern technology than youth partnered with adults.

This conference has been everything I hoped for and more. It has been very informative, extremely entertaining and eye opening.  You must come next year if you can.  This conference, very youth friendly and very awesome.
