Recently, a school in Fuzhou, Fujian Province launched an sex education course. In class, teachers taught students how to use sanitary napkins. The video shows that many male students came on stage to practice and learn how to use sanitary napkins. Subsequently, the matter caused heated discussion on the Internet.
Some netizens supported the school's approach, believing that "making boys feel that this is a very ordinary thing and shame to refuse menstruation." Some netizens also expressed their discomfort and believed that it was unnecessary. In this regard, experts said that sex education, like education in other subjects, is scientific education and should not be hesitant. Schools should firmly promote sex education and promote social transformation of their views on sex education through scientific curriculum design and educational methods.
△Two boys went to the podium to learn how to use sanitary napkins
It is understood that the school is Fuzhou Hualun Middle School . Teacher Xiao of the course said in an interview with the media that the course was to teach fifth-grade students the experiment on sanitary napkins. By pouring water, they showed how sanitary napkins absorb water, what is the internal principle of sanitary napkins, and finally taught how to use it.
△In class, the students actively participated and raised their hands actively
Teacher Xiao introduced that the school’s sex education courses are not limited to men and women. The school has always insisted on carrying out different sex education courses according to different age groups, from first grade to sixth grade once a month. The content of learning at each stage is different, including human birth, physical changes, prevention of sexual assault, etc. "The birth education in the first grade, the second grade is preventing sexual assault, the third grade is knowledge related to the Internet, the fourth grade is physiological changes in youth, the fifth grade introduces menstruation and sanitary napkin courses, and the sixth grade will have some AIDS publicity."
△The students under the stage applauded the boys who came to practice
Teacher Xiao also said that for teachers, sex education is a knowledge point, and there is no gender difference in learning. The study of sanitary napkins is not only related to girls, but also to boys. After boys understand, they will respect women more. "The boys in our class took the initiative to bring their mother's sanitary napkins for experiments when they were studying, and the rest was placed in the class to girls in urgent need."
This incident attracted the attention of netizens. Many netizens believed that the school did a great job, "Let students understand physiological knowledge, and boys will also respect girls and mothers." "Let the boys think this is a very ordinary thing, and they are shameful to refuse menstruation." "As a girl, I am a little moved to see this." However, some netizens think that it is unnecessary, "Just just talk about theoretical knowledge, there is no need to practice." "Seconds are the first priority in China."
On September 26, Teacher Xiao told Xiaoxiang Morning News (Report WeChat: xxcbbaooliao) reporter that after the incident attracted attention after the report attracted concern, it caused trouble for some children and families in the video, so it was inconvenient to respond again. However, for the recognition of netizens, Teacher Xiao said that they were very grateful, "We will continue to carry out sex education courses in schools and do what we think is right."
21st Century Education Development Research Institute Dean Xiong Bingqi told Xiaoxiang Morning News reporter that sex education, like education in other subjects, is a scientific education and should not be hesitant. The "Guidelines for Health Education in Primary and Secondary Schools" issued by the Ministry of Education in 2008 clearly states that growth and development and adolescence health education should be provided for primary and secondary school students. Specific contents include the growth and development characteristics of puberty; the differences between male and female adolescents during the puberty (specific manifestations of the secondary sexual characteristics of men and women); the menstrual menstrual and significance (menstrual formation and cycle calculation); the first nocturnal emission and significance of boys; health care knowledge during the vocal change period; personal hygiene knowledge during puberty.
However, Xiong Bingqi pointed out that unlike the theory, in reality, my country's society treats sex education in a split manner. When minors are sexually assaulted, they all call for attention to sex education. However, schools feel that it is "large scale", as if they understand sex education very much. Against this background, schools should firmly promote sex education and promote social transformation of their views on sex education through scientific curriculum design and educational methods.
