Sex and love a compulsory college course in China
(CHINA DAILY/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) - Two college students show a drawing symbolising their love in Taiyuan, Shanxi province. A psychological course, including sex and love, will be compulsory for university students starting this September, according to the Ministry of Education.
The ministry asked universities nationwide to develop a compulsory mental health course for students in all grades in June this year, a senior official of the ministry, who did not want to be identified, told China Daily on Wednesday.
'Such college courses have been developed for several years in fact, but they have been mainly optional courses,' he said.
'The reason why the ministry decided to make the courses compulsory was that most university students are advised to seek help or seek psychological guidance because of the heavy pressure on them,' he said.
