Summary/Abstract: The aim of the text taken in this text is to present the construct of sexual education as other in the educational discourse. I found interesting here the areas of constructing and categorizing this field of education at school in the context of other activities carried out in it, as well as the pedagogical consequences of this state of affairs. Giving birthmarks of otherness concerns not so much the subject that represents this field of education, but the actions affecting its specific constitution in the school's program. You can indicate here: involvement in the creation of a program of representatives of the two ministries, the possibility of negotiating the scope of content carried out on these classes by parents and adult students and the possible refusal to participate in them. As specific, one may further consider the construction of a name for an object in which the determinant: sexual does not appear. The practical exclusion of this subject from the group of those that are subject to evaluation seems to serve to avoid negative social reactions.
