Professor live-tweets her son's abstinence-only sex ed class

Professor Alice Dreger is no newcomer to the study of human sexuality. In 2010, she hosted a TED talk focused on how anatomy often determines fate, and in 2015 she published Galileo's Middle Finger, which covers controversies in academic medicine, specifically those related to sexuality.

When the author and bioethicist's son invited her to sit in on his abstinence-focused sexual education class, she knew she was stumbling into a situation ripe for live-tweeting.

Thankfully (for her followers, at least) she was not disappointed.

"You have to have a baby!" There are apparently no scissors in the room for paper abortions.

The best Tweet ever.
