Sex education around the world pt. 1

-

 Teaching about sex education is a really important task to do which many countries fail to master. It is obvious that sex education differs from country to country but in some its flaws can cause real harm. Here is how sex education looks around the world.

Belgium-Belgians are really relaxed when it comes to talking about sex. A site ,,Alles Over Sex" (All about sex) created by a sex health organisation, used to teach 15-year-olds but now they recommend 7-year-olds to take a look at their page. It is taken by some as disturbing and controversial though.

China-Sex education in China nearly doesn’t exists. This has led to alarming rising rates of abortion ans STDs. Uneducated teenagers enter the adulthood with no sex knowledge. Some schools tried to change it by using sex education textbooks but were very quickly removed because of the parents' uproar.

India-as well as in China sex education isn't compulsory in India which leads to very disturbing statistics. Over 53% of children aged from 5 to 12 have been subjected to sexual abuse and more than 50% of woman have no clue what menstruation is! The rate of HIV infections is also the fastest in the world. The culture in India promotes sex silence which makes young people unaware of sex abuse and their own body.

Indonesia-in Indonesia sex education is considered as an important topic. But the parents don't have the right education to teach their kids so the government is putting pressure on the teachers. Also, the only things that are being taught, are the consequences of sex but not how to prevent them or how to do it safely.

    I wonder what was so controversial on the Belgian website and who found it disturbing. The same kind of people that protests against sex ed in Poland and for the same reasons?

The worst things about living in Iceland

The worst things about living in Iceland  We all know that Iceland is a country of beautiful nature and breathtaking views but we may find some flaws. Iceland is an island so the transport is limited either with the food or with basic use products. You can have huge problems with ordering and buying stuff on the internet. The delivery takes a really long time and it is also really expensive! And to top it all, when picking up the package from the post, you have to pay half the price of the package, so for example when you buy some clothes for 150$ so you will have to pay 75$ to the post. Everything in Iceland is really expensive. All of your money can go just for the gaz to your car! You can realize that for example when a good pair of leggings costs 50$ in the USA (which is still expensive), in Iceland it may cost at least 100$. But the country is so expensive because the minimal pay in Iceland is much higher than in Europe or in the States. The weather in Iceland may be really extrem

 5 most interesting volcanoes in Iceland We all know that Iceland is mostly popular because of many dormant and active volcanoes. Today I would like to present couple of the most interesting in my opinion. The first one is Krafla . It lays in the north Iceland and it is surrounded by steaming vents boiling mud pools and bubbling hot springs which create unique views. Although the volcano is frequently active, it is a home to a coldwater lake that has a beautiful emerald color. The next volcano I find really interesting is the Oarefajokull volcano. Its is located on the southeastern coast of Iceland. What makes it so unique and beautiful, you may ask. Well, the volcano is covered in a blindingly bright white glacier. From the top of the volcano you are able to see the coastal cliffs and the famous Black Sand Beach! The next really beautiful volcano is the Askja volcano. You can reach it only by traversing Odadahraun-the largest lava field and volcanic desert in Iceland! Not only the jo

It was discovered accidentally by the Vikings about 1,100 years ago. Another interesting and unknown thing about Iceland is that many of its citizens believe in trolls and elves!
