Sex ed. vs. Abstinence

[Siddamark]

Does your nation support education on contraceptives and protection for youth, or an emphasis on abstinence. Siddamark supports sex ed. classes in schools, but opinions vary. I was curious how the community reacts to this issue.

[Mount Shavano]

We let the parents handle it however they want. A heck of lot more efficient than the school system attempting to do so!

Of course, optional classes are offered in most schools, and generally abstinence only education is favored by all parties here.

[Umbra Ac Silentium]

All schools have comprehensive sex education.
It is taught from a common sense position, not from an "Abstinence" position.

[Maraque]

Broad and comprehensive sexual education is the only method allowed in Tsvarchivan classrooms.

[Yellow Zone 20-A]

They are free to do as they choose.
Although some religious groups would prefer Abstinence.

[Serev Khan]

Teenagers are going to have sex whether a widely-useless "absintence only" program is taught or not.

Instead of leaving kids in the dark when it comes down to it, sexual education classes teach healthy lifestyle choices and how to use protection correctly as opposed to making sex a dirty, mysterious thing which one should never do unless married.

[Imeriata]

Being a civilized nation so are our youth raised to not engage in such activities except with their bride after their marriage as well as not discuss such things at all.

[Arumdaum]

Sex education, obviously. We also hand out condoms. Unless they're ugly, of course.

[Bajireyn]

Broad and comprehensive sexual education is the only method allowed in Tsvarchivan classrooms.

[Hahklallah]

Sexual Education is taught in schools, protection is provided. The whole abstinence thing is banned is up to the parent

[The Araucania]

we offer sex education, but we always say something important to us in matter of sex "the sex is sacred, do it with your love, don't simplify the pleasure"

[Koffiedik]

Common sense tells us to educate our youth.


Edit: To be clear... commanding abstinence is not education.

[Mourad]

Sex ed should be given to kids in middle school and agian in highschool.this is because in middle school your very curious and in high school all the pure presure can overwelm your good judgement.
leading to more teen moms who are realy just childern rising childern.

[Koffiedik]

Posting like that will not make you popular. I don't mean what you say, but how you say it.

[Ethel mermania]

In order to be good at something one must be educated. Since we want our people to be good at sex....

[Lackadaisical2]

Both. We teach about protection, diseases and all that good stuff, but stress the importance of abstinence to ensure safety.

[TG Island]

All our schools have PSHE (Personal, Sexual and Health Education) at the core of their curricula.

[InnerSphere]

That responsibility lays with the parents.

[Chelkan]

Sexual encounters are regulated heavily by the government. Pairings outside of authorized encounters may result in being transferred to a Penal Colony.

[Sub-Antarctic Islands]

It is the general opinion of our people that abstinence is a crime against nature. Students are required to have sex a minimum of 3 times per day, in strictly controlled breeding facilities. In order to cut costs, sex education is not provided to everyone - rather we comprehensively teach it to a few government employed individuals who then act as "breeding inspection officers" and inspect each couple during the process to ensure the proper procedures are followed.
Thanks to this Sub-Antarctic Islands has a constantly booming population, and a never ending supply of soldiers and cheap labor.

"Do it for the motherland!"

[Leepaidamba]

Abstinance is but a part of sex education.

[-Deus-]

We don't teach Abstinence, in fact we encourage it to the point that we have special classes for "hands on" lessons.

[The Grand Millian]

it is up to the parents to teach there children sex ed. so they will teach it how they see fit.

[Roodswood]

Teaching about sex is typically left to the parent in Roodswood, as it is both their right and duty. Most follow Catholic teaching on the subject, but if they do not, contraceptives are not widely available for sale anyway.

[Ahtreil]

When the moment comes to make the choice for my nation: Abstinence.

But teenagers will have sex anyway...
