Abnormal Summit Season 1 Episode 5 Compulsory sex education

In season 1 episode 5 of Abnormal Summit, the summit members discuss the sensitive topic of compulsory sex education. The members hail from various countries such as Japan, France, the United States, and Bangladesh. The conversation begins with the host, Jun Hyun-moo, asking the panel about their experiences with sex education in their respective countries.

The members share their past experiences and the differences in policy. Some countries have mandatory sex education, while others do not, and that has led to a significant gap in the knowledge that students receive. Some countries have opted for abstinence-based programs, while others promote comprehensive sex education that covers all aspects of sexual health and relationships.

The summit members acknowledge that it's difficult to discuss sex education because it's so personal, and each individual has a different set of morals and beliefs regarding the subject. They agree on how important it is to teach young people how to protect themselves and others, given the rising rates of teenage pregnancy and STIs globally.

The conversation turns to the dangers of ignorance. One member highlights how he tested positive for an STI despite being relatively sexually active and how it wouldn't have happened if he had received proper education at a younger age. The panel also briefly touches on the LGBTQ community and the importance of including them in sex education discussions.

The members then shift their attention towards cultural differences. One member from Japan mentions how sex is not openly discussed, which leads to a lot of people being ignorant when it comes to safe sex practices. He also mentions that there is currently a push to include more comprehensive sex education in schools.

Another member points out how American society is very contradictory when it comes to sexual education. The United States has some of the highest rates of teenage pregnancy and STIs, but the country still maintains a generally conservative attitude towards sex education. He believes this is changing, and more people are realizing how important it is to educate young people.

The summit members also discuss the parent's role in sex education. Some members recall their parents being open and honest about the topic, while others mention how their parents never discussed sex at all. The panel believes it's essential to involve parents in the discussion and for them to understand the importance of properly educating their children.

In the end, the summit members agree that compulsory sex education is necessary, but the way it's implemented should vary depending on the cultural context. The panel members conclude that it's time to remove the stigma surrounding sex education and to focus on teaching young people how to protect themselves and others. They hope that this episode would catalyze more open discussions about sex education and a movement towards a more progressive approach to it.
