How did you learn about SEX?
Technorati tags: Health, Sex Education, Malaysia
As you may have noticed, there's a new survey up.
It's a straw poll about how you learned about Sex... the bed-tango, doing the deed... and the many other colorful ways we tend to describe the culmination of attraction between two (or sometimes more) individuals.
Why this survey? Well, it has a lot to do with what Walski saw at the innaugural Cinejam! last night (more on the event itself in another post), specifically, a short documentary by Lydia Lubon and Yazid Ahmad, entitled "Sex Education in Malaysia: Are We Doing Enough?"
If you've watched it before, you'll know that the results were very revealing, and embarassing - not so much that the under-20's are engaging in sex, but more of the fact that they're engaging in it without knowing the hard facts. Facts about protection, risks and consequences.
Another reason, perhaps, is this almost comically shocking news report in The Star yesterday, about a poor 16-year old girl who gave birth in school.
In any case, it piqued Walski's curiosity enough to put the survey up. We'll leave it on for a week, then come back to look at the results in a follow-up post.
Be honest... the votes are totally anonymous... even to Walski.
