2. There is a big change about sex education in China. The parents didn't allow their children to talk about the sex 20 years ago. If the children asked the question about sex, the parents would warn them not to ask the similar questions. Of course, the parents couldn't answer it. The children would feel embarrassed and ashamed when someone talked about this topic. And there were no special curriculum for sex education at school, although the teacher handed out the books about sex. Read at home by yourself. But now it's changed. Children can learn sex education curriculum at school. The parents also pay attention to the sex education. Some parents teach the children sex knowledge. They tell their children where the babies come from, the parts of human body, and what the children should take care etc. Neither teachers nor parents could teach the children how to prepare sexually activity, what the homophobia is. It's very early and not appropriate.
