Watch The Puberty Video for Boys with Asperger Syndrome

More than a male and female anatomy lesson, this DVD also helps young men with social challenges understand how to interact positively with girls and women. Most importantly, it puts sex into perspective,revealing the truth behind the myths boys may see in the media. This video describes how male and female bodies change during puberty and how and how young men can deal with these changes (and urges) in appropriate ways that avoid social, ethical, and legal pitfalls. Narrated by a young man with Asperger Syndrome and a neurotypical female co-host, it features anatomical drawings and animation. The video includes information about intercourse, periods, pregnancy, birth control, sexually transmitted diseases, and more. The program emphasizes the value of young men waiting to engage in sex until they are mature enough to understand the consequences and make decisions they won't regret. The sections on dating and sexuality include demonstrations of socially expected interactions by age-appropriate male and female actors. This program can help young men deal confidently with a turbulent time in their lives by sharing candid information about what to expect and how to deal with it.
