So, with that as a given, maybe he doesn't see much being wrong with it.

Age appropriate should also take into account the mental maturity of each individual child to be able to cope with the information they have been given. I've seen the reverse side of warnings happen, especially to females, who ended up being too scared to have a sex life. It's a very difficult subject and I'm glad it's not down to the likes of me to decide as I'd sit on the fence forever.
