Every state has a sex ed curriculum, plus every school system outside the US. By any measure: teenage pregnancies, STD rates, self-harm and suicide in connection with gender identity issues, anti-gay and anti-lesbian violence, sexual satisfaction later in life, rates of rape and other sexual violence, willingness to call out abusive behavior, and so on, the more liberal jurisdictions run circles around the christian conservative abstinence-only curricula.
