Abstract

Through investigating the current situation of psychosexual health education for secondary school students in Guangzhou, we found that the current level of knowledge of psychosexual health among secondary school students varies. Sexual information is widely available. Sex education in schools is not widely available, and the sex education provided does not match the needs of students in terms of sexual values, and does not meet the needs of most students. Most parents are also unable to answer their students’ questions about “sex”. In this paper, we propose a series of recommendations to address this issue in the context of our national context, such as the development of targeted sex education that is appropriate for our young people and the promotion of home-school collaboration. The aim is to raise the attention of education departments, schools and families to the mental health education of adolescents, and to provide some theoretical basis and constructive suggestions for the development of scientific mental sex education.
