Educators wrack brains on how to teach
sex education in Thai schools
Education scholars, social workers, teachers and youths have urged the
government to improve sex education in the country’s schools. The
participants, in a seminar on how to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS among
Thai teenagers, suggested that sex education should be integrated into
other academic subjects, including Thai literature.
Teaching about sex should not be limited to hygienic
studies in the classrooms, as it is at present, an education expert,
Sirikorn Maneerin, told the seminar. The issues that should be included in
sex education for children are HIV virus infection, teen pregnancy, equal
rights between men and women and the respect for a woman’s right to
decline sexual intercourse, she said.
More than 1,000 participants have been brainstorming on
how to teach Thai school children about sex, at a three-day seminar which
started in Bangkok on October 25. (TNA)
