as an LGBT member myself growing up as a closeted queer person was one of the most difficult things, I have faced in my life. 

as our society faces into the future, there will be large scale ideological changes towards our view of lgbtq+ members of our society. 

one way in which we can see to this ideological change is the introduction of comprehensive sex education for all sexual and gender identities in Ireland. in my personal experience of Irish education, I have never been educated on life-saving medications such as prep which stop the spread of HIV. the fact that lgbtq+ students today aren't able to receive this education is a reflection on the institutionalised homophobia that exists today. 

the goal of this petition is to see large scale change in our sex education system. from a system that caters not only to heterosexual sex education too all individuals in our society.
