43. "Marriage Day".
I went to a Catholic girls' high school in the 1960s. We didn't have sex education, we had "marriage day".

It consisted of a Catholic priest coming in to tell us not to do anything.

Next up was a Catholic married couple with about 42 children telling us not to do anything.

Then a Catholic obstretrician (note, no mention of gynecology or the need for women to have checkups) telling us not to do anything.

Did I mention this was spring of senior year? And most of us had already done something???

It was totally useless, and we snickered at each other behind our hands. Well, the really religious girls didn't......
