Sex Bomb: What have we learned?

A university campus is a hotbed of academic pursuit, lifetime friendships, and well, hotbeds. Mount Allison is no different, and for many of the graduates this convocation weekend, the time spent in Sackville was one where learning happened both above and below the belt. From the moment we were given freedom from parental oversight, many of us began to explore our sexual identities and interests in earnest. With this in mind, The Argosy asks “what did you learn about sex and sexuality since arriving at Mt. A?”

“University sex is going to be better anyway; you don’t have to worry about parents!”

“I don’t think I learned anything important about sex. I guess when it happens it happens. Have an open mind! If you didn’t learn it in high school, I don’t think there is too much more to learn now.”

“Pulling an all-nighter to get the attention of a crush is never a good idea.”
