wow. it must get exhausting always trying to be so fucking pc. fact is... HEALTH class really isn't the place for it. and it really isn't appropriate for the teacher to suggest modern medicine isn't important. let's hope she doesn't come down with a case of that nasty breast cancer and try to cure herself without it. stick to the safe sex talk... maybe talk about cholesterol and healthy eating. you get the gist. i'm not dismissing all that jazz... just saying it's not really an appropriate forum.
