Sex Education: Required but do we really need a separate paper

This is a very controversial topic. Some think that, having this discussion may make students interested into this and would make the situation bad. Other think that, understanding the current statistics, students should be given this knowledge.

I feel, that having adult education is very necessary, but using the word "SEX Education" is itself very offensive and misleading because, knowledge which is to be delivered is not just about SEX, its about understanding our body.

Regarding having a separate course, I believe we already have chapters about Reproduction in 9th class. So besides teaching students, first it should be made clear with teachers that they take these chapter seriously and convey the required information. What is mostly seen is that teachers themselves, feel shy about these topics and may not spend the required time on these chapters.

So for most people, information about our body is acquired by [1 Hrs Movies ;)], which besides conveying the right ideas, creates so much confusions and convey the wrong information. Even people completing college does not know about these basic aspects. Few days back, some of us had an open discussion about "Understanding the Body Basics" and it was very clear that we were not having peoper knowledge. Google came to our resue, which add to our knowledge.

So "Understanding the Body Basics" is mandatory but should be managed properly.
