Date Ed, but not Dated... get it!?

“	Those who are unable to, teach.	”
CWC, ^[1]

Dating Education is Chris's term for the formal instruction he believes should be provided to instruct people on how to date. As with "Sex Ed," Chris abbreviates dating education to "Date Dd," and frequently makes use of (alleged) joke that the idea of "Date Ed" sounds "Dated."

In Real Life

“	As I have proposed the idea in my adult life within my Sonichu Comic Books, and a bit before then, High Schools SHOULD have Dating Education Classes along with the Sexual Education Classes. In my humble opinion, Sex ED is fine for AFTER 3 or so DATES, but HOW DO WE EVEN GET TO THE FIRST DATE?!!! If I had the Dating Education back then, I wouldn't have to had suffered being a frustrated virgin for soo many years.	”
CWC, ^[2]

Had Chris not been sleeping or reading Goosebumps, he might have noticed that real Sex Ed courses don't provide a step-by-step description of how to pound tom-toms, but rather a source of reference for responsible sexual behaviors and some of the relevant biology. Chris seems to assume that the course provided the same educational experience he believes that he has acquired from pornography, as opposed to a run-down on STDs and contraception. An educational experience so useful that Chris even suggested that Megan could use a refresher, hinting that it would make her feel better about being violated in vivid Crayola color:

“	The point is allowing yourself more exposure to sex acts to make yourself feel more comfortable with that fact of life.	”
CWC, ^[3]

His proposed class depends on a conceit that has no worldly counterpart. In short, Chris is an idiot and has no idea how anything works.

Consistent with both his autism and his own unique resistance to learning, Chris tries to seek out clear, direct steps in social interactions where his natural instincts and social skills (or lack thereof) fail him. In fact, his schools most assuredly did have "Coping Skills" instruction in their special education curriculum, which he was required to attend. Sadly, though he has be exposed to:

Special Education
Pastoral Counseling
Psychology and Psychiatry
God AND the Bear

...none of them can offer him the checklist of winning moves that he believes exists (but that has been kept from him). So really, it's entirely his fault that he has no idea how to act around other humans, much less eligible women. For the record, Chris considers Date Ed to be one of his top three inventions^[4]—right behind the Sonichu Universe and a Lego contraption for carrying Pokémon cards.

In Sonichu

Main Article: Episode 19: Date Ed (Even Though the Idea Sounds Dated)

Depending on how charitable your mood is, you might argue that Chris's idea for Date Ed is stupid but not insane. That is to say that it makes sense for Chris to want some guidance, and to extrapolate that to mean that other people want the same. But then you read Sonichu Episode 19, and you witness the insanity of DAT 303. DAT 303 is a thinly veiled matchmaking service, with a side order of Sex Ed. It boggles the mind to picture what DAT 101 or 404 might look like. Consider the following:

Everyone who took this class did so in hope of being paired up with a potential mate. IN THIS CLASS.
The class was split perfectly 50% male, 50% female.
On the off chance that there was a spare student, the professor expressly states that she won't be paired up with anybody, because it conflicts with both regulations AND her current relationship. Dear reader, if this class was just about learning to socialize, why would it matter?
The students are given dolls of the opposite sex, to practice their communication skills. THE DOLLS ARE CALLED ROBERT AND BARBARA.
Everybody hooks up. Except, it would seem, for "Clyde Cwash," who only got a 65% in the class.

DAT 303

**This was an Open Question with Multiple Answer Variation depending on person writing the essay.
**Here is what I feel is the BEST EXAMPLE of an answer from Chi-Chian of the PSN; Congratuations! =D

1. Aprroach the boy
- "Hi, what's up!"

2. Get the name
- "I'm Alex, what are you called?"

3. Find out more, get his interest
- "So what are you into? What music do you like? Seen any good movies lately?"

4. Give feedback, get opportunities for him to ask questions and get interested
- "I'm into anime (my favorite is Puni Puni Poemy, by the way - Kobayashi Poemi is so funny!!). I’ve seen that movie too! I like that actor."

5. Give interest/compliments back
- "I love your haircut (t-shirt, belt. etc)! What's that cologne?"

6. Get more intimate details
- "So how old are you? Come here often? You from around here?"

7. Food is a conversation foundation
- "Can we go get lunch/dinner? Can you buy me something to drink? (I think a gentleman should buy the lady a drink. although I don't drink alcohol or smoke)."

8. At the food place you can expand on the themes previously discussed, such as art, music or cinema. but allow the boy to talk as well, support him if he gets shy or stumped.

9. A walk to help with digestion. Usually there's a couple of shops around in crowded places, so you can always visit a couple together. Not necesserily buying anything, just browsing. A bookshop or a music/video store is always a good choice.

10. Alter the walk it‘s time to go, but this is where the telephone trade-offshould start.
- "It"s been really cool talking and walking with you and I'd like to do it again sometime."

-'''[[Dating]] education''' is [[Chris]]'s term for the formal instruction he believes should be available to instruct people on how to date. The concept is intended to be analogous to [[Wikipedia:sex education|sex education]]; Chris's premise is that it is pointless to teach young people how to interact sexually if they don't even know how to interact socially (because, you know, everybody needs lessons on that). As with "sex ed," Chris abbreviates dating education to "'''date ed'''," and is overly fascinated with the (alleged) joke that the idea of "date ed" sounds "dated."

An educational experience so useful that Chris even suggested that [[Megan]] could use a refresher, hinting that it would make her feel better about being violated in vivid Crayola color:
-Judging from a [[Mailbag]] reply he posted, Chris considers the Dating Education Class to be one of his most noteworthy "[[inventions]]," alongside [[Sonichu]], [[Rosechu]] and some [[Lego]] contraption for carrying [[Pokémon]] cards. In typical Chris fashion, he [[Chris and Hypocrisy|believes]] that he should give people advice about something he knows absolutely ''nothing'' about.

While modern psychology offers such people social skills groups which address the root issues by introducing basic social skills, Chris instead prefers his own notion of dating education and would rather sit around waiting for the public school system to implement it. In fact, his school apparently did have a "Coping Skills" class, mostly likely part of a [[Wikipedia:Special education|special education curriculum]], which he was required to attend. But he says that he'd either read ''[[R.L. Stine|Goosebumps]]'' or [[Biological clock|sleep]] through class. So really, it's entirely his fault that he has no idea how to act around other humans, much less eligible women.
