Should Sex Education be Implemented in Malaysia?

In my view, the implementation of sex education in Malaysia is necessary. This is because many teenagers nowadays have misconceptions towards sex. Since there are no proper channels to provide teenagers the truths about sex, they often obtain the knowledge of sex from the media such as porn movies and magazines. These media have always deluded them into thinking that having sex is purely a tool for pleasure and entertainment, without considering the aftermath of it. Hence, this would result in an increase in pre-marital sex among teenagers in Malaysia, apart from a rise in teenage pregnancy, for they do not know the dangers and risks of having a sexual relationship before marriage. Therefore, the implementation of sex education in Malaysis is a tall order to ensure that teenagers receive true infomation about sex, rather than being misled by the media.
