Charting Sex for Youth Atlas Review in ASEP Context
A review of the English edition of a 44 page atlas on sex education, translated from German origins, praising its clarity and diagrams while noting it omits contraception in practice. It discusses biological bases, menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth, venereal disease, hygiene, and a substantial chapter on family planning with contraception methods. The piece highlights potential friction with schools and parent groups in adopting such material.
