Sex Education: when? When HIV emerged in the West in the 1980s, its absence was “discovered”, a pending issue always put off. The political will was lacking and there was too much resistance to it: prejudices that were too internalized and too old were radically challenged, prejudices that still manifest today. To talk about sex with boys and girls would be to reveal the existence of sexuality to them.
