In Sweden there is a sexual education in high school. I remember sitting there with *huge* eyes when this old lady looking like a grandma' took out a condom and starting to show us how to put it on properly, using a banana, I think =)) I think it's great that this kind of information exists in schools, because some of the kids don't have the proper teachings in this area at home. We also learned the basic anatomy of female and male bodies (or certain parts of it), and then there was some discussion about porn. I don't remember that discussion in details, but the main point was that it is a skewed picture of the reality, so the girls were taught to say no, and the boys were taught to accept it.
norral – we have the same thing with sex insuination in the commercials over here. I don't think that it's a completely bad thing though. I remember there was one commercial that brought attention and big debates about this whole sex thing in the commercials. There is a company here, called "locum". So one year, they made big posters that were put everywhere, where they exchanged the letter "o" with a heart, and the result was l
cum. Do you see it? I thought it was pretty funny though =)
Swedish people are not that religious, which has its cons too, I guess. For instance there is a very little talk about spirituality. So while we are not buying much of this organized/centralized religious stuff, we are not into the spirituality at all!
Most of the swedes learn german in school. I did it too, but my memory is kind of selective, so I hardly remember any of it =) If you don't learn any german, I don't think that you are able to understand it, even though there are many similarities.
Meerie - Learning some swedish aren't we?
Don't worry. The majority here speak excellent english, and many speak german too. Do you have sexual education in the schools in Germany?
