The professor emphasized that sexual behavior connects the couple emotionally, “gives birth” to children and develops a better and more mature mental health and a physical well-being until deep old age.
In its importance sexual education of the children, both institutionally by the state with lessons in schools, and by their parents, was mentioned by Professor Thanos Askitis speaking on SKAI TV and the show “Dekatianoi” with Yiannis Pittaras and Giorgos Grigoriadis on the occasion of World Sexual Health Day.
As he said, sex education, in the school community and in the family (parents and children) is an important part of human maturation.
He characterized the efforts made so far by the State as fragmentary, saying that an organized sex education course is needed “and not with words like “I love my body” or “biology””.
“We must speak clearly, openly. Know that the more truly you express these issues, the more mature you present them, and I think the big capital is the parent” emphasized Mr. Askitis, explaining that the parent who does not know, is afraid and develops wrong perceptions.
He warned about the internet, saying that unfortunately it has become a conduit for sex education and that the issue should not be dealt with opportunistically and piecemeal especially in the important age group of 6 to 16 years.
Sex leads to mental health and physical well-being well into old age
Mr. Askitis emphasized that sexual behavior connects the couple emotionally, gives birth to children and develops a better and more mature mental health and physical well-being until old age.
“Know that today our sexual life does not end at 50-60 as we used to say. Man maintains and has desire until the end of his life, so the need for companionship, emotional fulfillment and his evolution are the important stations of a sexual life. the professor explained.
“Basically, sexual health is the belief that I have the right to have a partner, to be in a mood for myself and to have mental and physical health,” said Mr. Askitis and referred to sexual rights, such as self-determination, respect, social demarcation.
