As teenagers today navigate increasingly fluid identities and choices, there is a demand for an accessible,interactive tool to help share knowledge about sex and sexual health; one that demystifies the facts and speaksfrankly about experiences whose lessons often fall into the grey areas.Since 2008, Miller and Bley have held an open call for young people to create comics that address a variety oftopics involved with sex education. We have since produced several issues of a sexedcomic called Not YourMother's Meatloaf. The work is chosen from a vastly varied group of submissions and attempts to challengehetero and gender normative practices in sex education. The comics address topics like body image, safer sex,consent, and relationships, from positions that have historically been left out of sex education.
