Synopsis 
Socially awkward teenager Otis Milburn is ambivalent about sex, despite his mother being a sex therapist who is frank about all aspects of sexuality. After inadvertently assisting the school bully with his sexual performance anxiety, Otis sets up a sex advice business with Maeve - a confident but vulnerable classmate - to educate their fellow students in how to deal with their own sexual problems.

My view
 Sex education is sweet and funny. Moreover, it's a vivid teenage series which do care about its wise characters.

The story stretches with an awkward embarrassed teenager Otis Milburn who struggle with his divorced mother's occupation (a sex therapist) and her influence on his personal life.
Otis accompanies with Eric Effiong brilliantly played by Ncuti Gatwa, his gay friend coming from a religious African family.
They team up with a social outcast, soft angsty Maeve Wiley aka cock-biter living alone in a caravan park. Later they start a secret sex clinic at their high school.


The audience of this show will have an empathetic crush on these characters making it a successful one. The show uses sex and sexuality as a way to explore other things. One of the great perks of ’sex education’ is that it demonstrates a powerful understanding of the things that go on the desires and needs that aren’t just physical. 

From the very first scene of the first episode, you may think this as a filthy series bragging just about teen sex. But, as you keep up with the flow in like 3-4 episodes, it will occur to you know this ain't anything like the American pie.

Another great thing about this show is its colourful fashion environment. The whole theme and vibe of the show are so pleasant. 

Sex Education is an adventure through a group of teenagers whose sexual stuff is so eccentric to nature. One could even learn a thing or two from them.

An unfinished poem.

I wake up and it's raining. It has been raining since yesterday midnight The night at which we told things we never told each other When we both stood at the edge of the cliff of our fires, Vulnerable. Alarm reminds me it's an hour past midnight and I should probably get some sleep. I say rain reminds me of you. You say I scare you sometimes by telling these kinda things. I sigh. Yes. My thoughts can be a little bit scary sometimes, Deep. You send me poems written on amber papers. Poems. Words. Is that what binds us? Poems about souls, men women holding cigarettes, Me, you, us. I say I wish I could hear you read 'em You want to know why I don't know. Silence. I admit I'm a hopeless romantic. You say that may make my life painful And you're drained of love and may break hearts. I remember Augustus Waters, I say It'd be a privilege. You say sometimes you don't like who you are. I say neither do I. Maybe it's not ...

Cadence of suffering

I am in pieces.  I can't think of anything good to do. I look into all these peoples faces and I wonder how they just go with them the flow. This has to get better. You lose pieces of your life every once in a while. You can either find a new piece or you can live a whole miserable, tedious life trying to retrieve that lost piece.  Life is a maze that you'll never be able to find your way out from. Love is a riddle that you'll never be able to find an answer for.  Yet you run, trying to find that exit door, looking for answers of rhetorical questions.  You know the path you chose is gonna get you hurt. But you can't turn back now because what else is there? We've all been there. That phase in life when you feel like everything is falling apart. That there's isn't a single thing you can do to make it alright.  Stephen Hawking said, ”However bad life may seem, there's always something you can do to succeed at it. Where ther...
