Thread: Sex education.. Do we need it in our education system?

Sex education is vital and it should start from family and school level... I know many people who are so curious about sex because they don't understand that sex is a part of every human's life. Surely the rate of abuse in eastern countries are high because of the lack of sex education. People should understand that this is a common think and nothing to be shy about it to hide.

Well said. Most people disagree on this and for them it's a taboo and no one is allowed to speak or think of it. That is where things go wrong.
Youngsters do not get the correct understanding on what life actually means. If it is considered unspeakable, then it gives out the impression that it's some kind of secret,that no one is supposed to know about. This results in curiosity and it gives them wrong understanding and awareness of the vital part of life.
