Journal Title: Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction: Sexual education is still a non-defined area concerning sexual life of man. It is perceived differently depending on country and culture. In Poland, it should be implemented as part of “Family Life Education.”Aim: The aim of the research is to present the opinion of male and female high school students concerning sexual education.Materials and methods: The research was conducted in 2014 on 450 high school students, male and female, in two rovinces – 225 students from the Stanislaw Konarski High School in Mielec (Podkarpackie province) and 225 surveyed at the Zbigniew Herbert High School in Lublin (Lubelskie province)Results: Close to half of the surveyed participates in “Family Life Education” (48%). Nearly a half of respondents (32% and 22.9%) is not satisfied with the class. Poor sides of the subject are observed by a vast majority of students (70%). Most of the youth (68.9%) wants to have a complex approach to the subject, which would be led by a medical specialist (68%).Conclusions: Students state that sexual education as part of “Family Life Education” is not satisfactory. They demand a specialist, medical knowledge of human sexuality. Parents, who should constitute a major source of information, have a considerable influence in the sexual education of their children.
