Why is sex education important?

After know about the meaning of sex education, i'm sure all of you will agree with me that there are many importance of sex education. One of them is sex education provide youths with information they need to understand like the changes of their body and the reproductive process. This can let them more understand about their humanity, reproductive rights and developmental changes such as puberty, menopause, aging. Once they have the knowledge about it, they will realised that the change they are experiencing or would experience is indeed normal. For example, girls would not get shocked, panic and afraid at their first menstruation once they already had the knowledge about it.

Besides that, through sex education, young people can also learn to appreciate and recognize their own sex. They will know that their bodies just as good, beautiful and special as other God's perfect creations. This can prevent social ills from happen since they will appreciate and respect their own body and also the others.

Hence, it is very important to implement sex education. I will write the other importance of sex education in preventing social ills in the following posts. If anyone of you have any opinion or suggestion, you may leave a comment to me so that we can discuss more about it.
