• Sex education does not promote youngsters to indulge in sex; actually, it
does the opposite.
• It exposes teenagers to their natural sexual expression.
• Sex education protects the young souls from unwanted pregnancies and
sexually transmitted diseases.
• It can prevent the ubiquity of unauthentic sexual information.

Introduction:
Today, the modernization and technological progress have opened doors of
opportunities and choices for the modern youth. Now, every kind of information is
available on fingertips. Teenagers are totally unpredictable and their risk-taking
streak makes them seriously vulnerable. Nowadays, there is drastic increase in
cases of unwanted pregnancies in teenagers, abortions, miscarriages, and spread
of sexually transmitted diseases. This makes it essential to introduce sex education
among the young people. Education aims to prepare youngsters for the future and
sex education thus becomes a fundamental part of a healthy journey towards an
adult life.

Importance of Sex Education:

Sex education is a kind of precautionary measure and the need of the day. It helps
the young minds to channelize their energies in a meaningful direction. It exposes
the youngsters to their bodily changes, gender identity, body image, intimacy, sexual
expression, family responsibility and much more. Also, sex education helps in skill-
building that aids the youngsters to make informed decisions and communicate
about sex and their sexual health.
