First, sex education begins with children cleaning their bodies.
Sex education for Japanese children begins with cleaning the body. In Japanese nurseries, children have been trained to use toilets since the age of 1.5, and they have learned how to use toilets correctly. The nurse will explain to the child the contents of cleaning the body, including the use of toilet paper, the method of wiping * * *, and the cleaning of underwear. In addition, nurses often remind parents to change underwear for their children, especially boys, because unclean underwear may induce sexual dysfunction in the future.
Second, guide children to understand the origin of life.
Nursery nurses will take out physiological picture books and explain their biggest question to children: Where am I from? After answering the child's questions, the teacher will contact the child's parents in advance to ask about the origin of the name, and will also show the photos of the child since birth in the class, so that the child's mother can write a letter about the child's birth and read aloud in public in the class, so that the child can experience the hard-won life and the hardships and happiness of birth and growth.
Japanese firmly believe that children know how to respect life when they are young, and they will know how to respect others when they grow up. In early childhood, it is an excellent opportunity to cultivate respect for life by giving children birthdays and teaching them to cultivate animals and plants, so that they can understand life in simple surprises and touches.
Third, cognitive gender roles.
When Japanese children have their first swimming class in kindergarten, teachers regard it as a good opportunity to educate their children about sex: let them know their gender roles, whether they are men or women, and initially understand the differences between men and women, so as to establish self-protection awareness. For example, in swimming class, teachers and children will have such an answer:
The teacher asked, "What's the difference between boys and girls?"
Children 1: "Pants are different"
Child 2: "The coat is different"
Child 3: "The place to pee is different."
Child 4: "Men have dicks, but women don't."
In short, the children will answer the teacher's questions without hiding. Discussions like this often happen. Japanese kindergarten teachers believe that seizing these opportunities can help children correctly understand the differences between men and women, learn to respect each other's bodies, and gain a sense of fullness and stability, which is very important for the formation of children's healthy sexual consciousness.
Fourth, sexual knowledge is taught from primary school to high school.
The cover of the first volume of the "Health" textbook for primary schools published by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan has pictures of the bodies and sexual organs of women and men. Primary schools have 1-2 hours of lectures every year, covering the physiological differences between men and women, menstruation and pregnancy principles. In addition, junior high schools also have 1-2 hours of lectures every year, calling on students not to engage in risky behaviors, and students can also learn about contraception and sexually transmitted diseases. High school physical health classes and family life classes also have sex education classes, involving contraception, abortion, sexually transmitted diseases, AIDS, ethics and so on. In addition, every junior high school and senior high school in Japan has a "helper association" composed of experts and scholars, which is responsible for providing students with all kinds of sex counseling and sex education, and compiling a guide manual for sex education.
Verb (abbreviation for verb) about adult videos
When it comes to Japan, many domestic netizens will subconsciously think of Japanese adult videos. In fact, adult videos in Japan are far less popular than those in developed countries, and both the output and the number of related employees are far lower than those in developed countries in Europe and America. However, from the inertia consciousness of netizens in China towards Japan, we can see a kind of sadness, that is, the lack of sex education in China leads to teenagers' desire and curiosity for sex far higher than their Japanese peers.
In fact, in Japan, the consumers of adult videos are over 40 years old, which is different from China university students who can name Maria Ozawa, Aoi sora and Wu Tenglan with their mouths open. Few Japanese college students have heard that someone knows so much about adult movie stars. Different from the situation in China, Japanese people have received various systematic and formal sex education since childhood, so that when they go to university, their mystery and curiosity about sex have long since disappeared, and they can have enough time to participate in their favorite university activities or spare more time for study.
However, sex education in China has always been secretive and unwilling to talk about it. Instead, it makes children in China feel confused and unable to extricate themselves after entering the university. The most direct result of the full-scale outbreak of sexual curiosity and repression is: indulging in adult videos and living with the opposite sex. The probability of these behaviors is much higher than that of Japan.
