Sexual Education
Lebjournal.com-
Every year pass by, in the Lebanese society, young people face lots of sexual problems. Our society faces these problems, especially with young people due to the lack of sexual education in our society.
Sexual education is of the same importance as the school education that we get, and it can affect our lives in many different ways. Many teenagers, who don’t get the right sexual education, would make mistakes that will haunt them throughout their whole lives. For example, imagine a 16 year-old teenager who went to a place and had sex with one of the workers there and he didn’t use condom to have more pleasure and that woman didn’t know that she had aids. What would happen to that young teenager? Moreover, sexual education could prepare teenagers how to behave in facing problems of sexual harassment and rape. Imagine a young girl at school being sexually harassed by her teacher; she would be totally lost because she won’t know how to act. Sexual education would give the young girls ideas about how to act in such cases. What I mentioned above shows the importance of sexual education. But how are we able to achieve the right sexual education in the Lebanese society?
Achieving the right sexual education in a society like in
In addition to what I mentioned above, the society can play an important role in helping our teenagers achieve a better sexual education. Video producers can produce special sexual education videos. These videos would be found at every video store around the country, and would be given to teenagers, who are under the legal age, whenever they ask for porn videos. Thus in that way these videos would reach a very big number of Lebanese teenagers and help them.
At the end, sexual education is like any other kind of education, and we all should join hands together to let our teenagers achieve it before it would be too late for some of them.
