Sex Education in China (2) To demonstrate the history of sex education, it is essential to define it at first. Sex education, which also called sexuality education or sex and relationships education, “is the process of acquiring information and forming attitudes and beliefs about sex, sexual identity, relationships and intimacy.” (AVERT, 2014) Broadly speaking, sex education does not only include knowledge of anatomy and reproduction, but also emphasizes the cognition of sexual psychology and ethics as well as the guidance on intimate relationship between the sexes. According to an American sex education scholar Kirkendall (1977, Sex education in the United States, 1-17), the aim of sex education is to help every educated person comprehend the maturation process of sex, physiology and psychology and eliminate anxieties caused by personal differences. But in China, the interpretation of sex education is quite different. In ancient times, sex education was agreeably because people could talk about sex expressly. Sex education of the day included sex physiology and sex psychology. But after an abstinent period in Chinese history, sex became a sensitive topic. People feel shame and guilt talking about sex. Therefore, sex education was limited to education of sexual morality. One of the prominent points is that adolescents are taught not to fornicate to keep chastity before marriage. The history of China’s sex education can be divided into three phases, namely archaic, latter-day and contemporary sex education. In ancient time, there is an enlightened period of time when sex education was prevalent. The art of bedchamber, also known as Taoist sexual practices, is one of Taoism's regimens. It believes that sex behavior can prolong people’s life, eventually make people immortal and become celestial beings. Some doctors used it for treatment during Western Han Dynasty (206 B.C.-9 A.D.) and Wei Dynasty (220-266 A.D.). As a consequence, it was widely spread among common people. It can be regarded as a kind of sex education because it tells people about the methods and function of sexual intercourse.
