Comprehensive sex education


Comprehensive sex education (CSE) is a sex education instruction method where students gain knowledge, attitudes, skills and values to make appropriate and healthy choices in their sexual behavior, thus preventing them from sexually transmitted infections, including HIV and HPV, teenage or unwanted pregnancies, and from domestic and sexual violence, contributing to a greater society. Comprehensive sex education ultimately promotes sexual abstinence but is committed to teaching students about topics connected to future sexual activity, such as age of consent, safe sex, birth control and use of condoms.

Comprehensive sex education gives information to youth about sexuality instead of avoiding it, this allows students to know about this topics and be prepared be ready to take a decision or even protection whenever they decide to start or not their sexual relationships.

The most widely agreed benefit of using comprehensive sex education over abstinence-only sex education is that CSE acknowledges the student population will be sexually active in their future. By acknowledging this, CSE can encourage students to plan ahead to make the healthiest possible sexual decisions.
