Abstract

In China, sexuality education has received increasing attention, and more individuals are becoming aware of its importance. However, sexuality education is still not widely available in China for a variety of reasons. In terms of people’s perceptions, this paper reviews the reasons why sexuality education is not readily accessible. Through analyzing what stereotypes people have against sexuality education and their consequences, this paper tries to find out the appropriate strategies to eliminate these stereotypes, which aims at helping sexuality education to be spread and implemented effectively. This study examines existing sexuality education stereotypes in China from three perspectives: perception, object, and content. This review also aims to provide strategies for eradicating sexuality education stereotypes from three dimensions: family, school, and society. At the same time, this study deserves to be regarded seriously and further developed, and it has important implications for how to dispel sexuality education misconceptions and so support its implementation.
