I think that children should be encouraged to use the correct terms about sexual anatomy because these are accepted terms. Usage of correct terms can avoid malice and awkwardness. Correct terms like penis and vagina are far more acceptable to the ears instead of the slang words dick and pussy (we're all mature here people afro ). Knowing the slang words isn't bad though. They're just nice to know but they shouldn't be used in everyday conversations. Again, correct terms should be encouraged.

I would agree with Ms. Balbuena. The slang words are making their meaning even worse than they're supposed to. In using them, it would bring a bad image to the terms, and even be used for unnecessary purposes. Today, it would be used by adolescents in regards to their friends, or even used simply for teasing and mocking them. But by using them correctly, it would be a normal thing, just like mentioning any part of the body. It would not bring about any images other than it is supposed to be.
