There are many justifications that they might give.
But the material reason why they are against sex ed is that less sex ed leads to more teen pregnancy. Teen pregnancy keeps people in poverty and prevents them from really discovering the world. If your ideology prefers to have everybody closed off in their own families with most people working as full-time wage slaves to make ends meet, a good way to accomplish this is by getting people to have children very early.
I know that's the ideology at the top, but for your average Conservative would that really apply in any meaningful way? I would think your average evangelical would complain about teen pregnancies.
The average joes just go along with what they're told and don't question it. They just repeat what they're told by the people at the top, whether or not they've thought about it.
It is probably useful to split the concept of "arguments for X" into "social function of X" and "rationalization of X".
