Funny or Informative? Mom Video Blogs Sex Education

Kuriansky told ABCNEWS.com that she was most offended by the episode on syphilis, which shows Hasler and her co-stars violently slitting each other's necks at the thought of acquiring the sexually transmitted disease.

"Using a blog is a good way to give responsible education in a humorous way, but this isn't it," said Kuriansky, who said her advice for sex education would be for parents to sit down and talk to their kids face-to-face. "She has no credibility."

Teaching from Experience

On the show's Web site, Hasler identifies herself as a "former expert practitioner of teen promiscuity" and does not have any professional experience teaching sex education.

When asked how she reacts to the criticism that her jokes may send the wrong message to teens, Hasler said she "likes funny jokes" but also hopes that teens will take away a sense of "personal responsibility." She said she intends to have professionals appear on future episodes. While some, such as Kuriansky, are turned off by Hasler's lack of experience, others said her style was a great way to get through to hard-to-reach and know-it-all teens.

"[Hasler] has a very nonacademic approach, but if her goal is to educate teenagers in a way they will find relevant, I think she'll be more successful than the traditional stuff out there," said David Greenfield, the director of the Center for Internet Behavior and an expert on sexual behavior.

"Most of the sex education that's out there is horrible because it's boring," said Greenfield. "The humor in this will get people to watch it, not take away from the seriousness. Kids don't think sex is serious to begin with anyway."

Barbara Dehn, a nurse practitioner and women's health expert at Stanford University, told ABCNEWS.com that she appreciates the humor of Hasler's videos but also questions some of the factual accuracy.

"Some of the information is misleading, but in some ways there are going to be teens who are going to relate to the language and scenes in the videos," said Dehn. "The key is that this is something parents can use as a springboard for more conversation."
