VIDEO: These Irish sex education videos from the 1980s are very funny and very awkward

Imagine watching these with your parents.

Ireland is a lot different nowadays than it was in the 1980s, when attitudes to sex and all things sex-related weren’t necessarily as liberal as they are today.

There’ll always be an element of awkwardness to teaching young people about sex, but we sure hope the kids of today don’t have to sit through the same type of visual guide to sex education that Irish youngsters did 30 or so years ago.

Irish YouTube group Ah Jaysus stumbled upon some Irish sex education videos and have been uploading them on their channel in recent days and to say that they will make you cringe is something of an understatement.
