In fact, the ancient emperors of China also knew how to educate the princes in the early stage, so as to cultivate their "sexual interest". Ancient emperors generally had sexual enlightenment at the age of 14 or even earlier. Princes are mostly taught by officials and ladies with sexual experience. Almost all emperors, little emperors and princes had been blessed by women before their formal marriage, had skilled sexual experience, and some even had children. Sima Zhong, a faint king in the Western Jin Dynasty, married at the age of 13, when he was a prince. Before Sima Zhong got married, his father, Sima Yan, sent a harem talent Xie Jiu to the East Palace to teach the prince about sex. Xie Jiu was pregnant when she left the Prince's East Palace. Xie Jiu later gave birth to a son in another palace. A few years later, Prince Sima Zhong saw a child in his parents' palace. Emperor Wu of Jin told him that this was his son, and he was greatly surprised. Similarly, TaBaJun, a Wen Chengdi of the Northern Wei Dynasty, got married at the age of 17, but 13 just entered adolescence and 14 became a father.
Not only the royal family and nobles attach importance to sex education, but also the folk sex education is colorful. In ancient China, the main ways of sex education for ordinary people were "dowry painting" and "wardrobe bottom". This kind of guiding way of "painting a tiger according to a cat" is an "image teaching aid" for sex education. "Dowry Painting" is actually a volume of eight pictures, 12 different sexual styles. Before a daughter gets married, parents often buy one or two rolls as a dowry, so that her daughter can lie in bed and be enlightened on her wedding night. The "closet bottom" is mostly porcelain, fist-sized, with auspicious melon and fruit shapes and a lid, which hides a pair of promiscuous men and women. Before the daughter gets married, the mother opens the lid of the "wardrobe" to let her daughter know "the way of husband and wife"; It is usually placed at the bottom of the box to ward off evil spirits. Only when children enter the bridal chamber can they be enlightened with such maps or porcelain. Although it belongs to "collapse", it is very useful. It can be seen that our ancestors may not be honest enough about sex, but they will never fall behind.
In ancient times, sex education was mostly carried out by mothers to women, and women were carried out after their mothers and passed down from generation to generation. Therefore, in ancient times, women often knew more about sexual knowledge than men; In ancient times, it was popular that wives were several years older than husbands, so women often taught men a lesson in their sexual life. Of course, sex education in ancient times was definitely not only the "suggestive guidance" of mothers, but also some ancient books about sex for reading, just because ancient people didn't read much, so it was not so popular. When a girl marries, she may be taught by a wet nurse, a stable and a young sister. Sometimes little sisters sing folk songs at the bride's window. These folk songs all have sexual content. Singing folk songs is provocative, but it also has the function of sexual enlightenment.
Adolescence is the cognitive achievement of physiology now, but it doesn't mean that ancient people didn't have adolescence. It should be said that the adolescence of ancient people was advanced. The so-called "seeds of love" is to describe women in this period. Women in this period are more eager to communicate with men, daydreaming is more delicate, they are eager for emotional communication and have a sense of love. The ancients attached importance to sex education because they attached importance to passing on the family line, and "there are three unfilial things, and there is no big future", while passing on the family line and reproducing future generations must be carried out through sex. At this point, it seems that some modern China people are not as good as the ancients two thousand years ago. On the one hand, they want to have children, on the other hand, they regard sex as obscene and unclean. This concept is really pleasing.
The ancients attached importance to sex education, which is good, but its theory and method are not perfect. It stands to reason that the content of modernity education includes both knowledge education and personality education, which is more scientific and comprehensive. Regrettably, the phenomenon of puppy love and even eating forbidden fruit among contemporary middle school students is mostly critical, but it ignores the developmental, interactive and quasi-love characteristics of love, and also ignores the responsibilities and obligations of society, parents and schools themselves. How to deal with the precocious puberty of contemporary middle school students requires school teachers and parents to guide students to communicate naturally, learn to think, know and grasp themselves and properly handle their emotions on the basis of their fantasies about the health of the opposite sex; It is useless to restrict heterosexual communication by authoritarian means, and sometimes there will even be negative effects of "drawing a sword and cutting off water".
