So I was searching for the facebook page on google and I saw this gem in the search results. I didn't create an account to read it, but the title of the webpage made me wonder. What do JW ask their teens about sex?

Page title "It seems the LDS leaders ask teenagers invasive questions about sex too"

I know they are very concerned with sexuality....not sure how that works with teens. My guess is they do, from what I know so far...

I read both boards, and saw this post on the jw board. As a former JW, I can say that they do ask sexual questions but generally only when there is a reason to believe "impropriety" has taken place (a person confesses to something or something was witnessed by someone). From what I gather here, Bishops ask their congregants at regular intervals for the various worthiness interviews. There really isn't such a thing as a worthiness interview for JWs.

But, again, if "impropriety" is suspected, I've heard that the questions can be quite invasive.

Yes these are done on regular intervals. Normally when progressing to a new stage of church participation or renewing your temple recommend (currently every two years).
