People in India do not openly talk about sex, so come let’s talk about sex
Let’s talk about sex today because it is really important for all of us. At least talking about it will save most of our young generation from the dangerous misinformation about sex.
Every time when we go out to watch a movie with our parents, lovemaking scenes in the film makes us uncomfortable. Why every time we need to change the channel of the television when we see any kissing scene?
Why can’t we just relax? And why can’t we just openly talk about sex? In India, word ‘SEX’ has a lot of stigmas attached to it. Sex education has to go a long way in India.
People often think sex education is obscene and it will have a bad impact on their child. Actually, sex education is not about teaching students to have sex at an early stage, rather it teaches them about social and biological aspects of leading healthy sex life in future.

Reality shows, unprotected sex and a dark future
A lot of shows that are aired in India show, how teenagers themselves destroy their future and most the time reason is unprotected sex. In order to get pleasure for a while, they forget to take preventive measures, which lead to a dark future.
HIV, STD and awareness about them
What types of contraception are available? What are the risks of STD and HIV? What all should be kept in mind while engaging in a sexual activity?
This type of education and awareness in required for Indians. Most of the Indians seek opinions from friends, when it comes to sex. But trust me, friends and the internet cannot give you correct advice every time.
