SEXUAL EDUCATION IN THE ROMANIAN SCHOOLS AFTER THE FALL OF COMMUNISM (1989)

Summary/Abstract: Introduced as an optional subject in 2004, "Sex education" aims to be stated as a compulsory subject, by implementing training programs in this regard and by developing of a secondary legislative frame. Unfortunately, besides some salutary themes, the curriculum contains several scientific and pedagogical errors regarding sexuality, it does not present honestly the negative effects of the contraceptive measures, and it ignores certain mechanisms of the adolescent psychology. The fact that the Romanian initiative is closely related to some resolutions of the European space which promote sexual education in schools, the fact that the organizations that support the rights of sexual minorities are lobbying for the introduction of the subject as mandatory and that among the authors and the trainers of this project there are apologists of sexual deviances and vehement objectors to religion as a school subject, all these show that there are several factors concerned and the stake is much higher than at it appears: this discipline is intended as a doctrine of early sexualization of the children, of sexual liberalization.
