Rider Strong shared his thoughts on the way that sex was handled on his show "Boy Meets World." He said that he thought the topic of safe sex should have been discussed during the show's prom episode.
The trio began discussing one of the episodes, season five's "Prom-ises, Prom-ises", in which Fishel's character Topanga and her boyfriend Cory Matthews (Ben Savage) consider having sex for the first time after prom.

"I remember really not liking the prom episode," said Strong, who played Cory's best friend Shawn Hunter. "I remember being very upset during that entire week."
He continued, "I was very upset with the adults on our set, specifically the way that they were approaching this, specifically because we were not discussing safe sex."
