General information about homosexuality can be found here , and about being young and gay here . Young people have a right to accurate information about sexuality I was waiting and expecting to hear something about homosexuality, safe sex and different things in sex education. Maybe some information that could help me. But I got nothing. There was nothing.
All young people have a right to accurate information about sexuality and sex.
This information goes a long way to enabling young people to have control over and get satisfaction from sexual experiences and relationships - the main purpose of sex education. Young people in school often express a need for information by asking questions. Many schools are willing to take on the responsibility of delivering accurate information but do not find it easy to meet the needs of all their pupils. Young lesbian and gay people, in particular, can feel that sex education is very much about heterosexual relationships and excludes them. They may grow up with negative feelings about some kinds of relationships and sexual behaviour.
