Hello and be welcome to my sex education blog!

My name is Tali Korytnicki, I’m a spanish native speaker, and as a certified sexual educator I focus my work in kindergarten children –guiding workshops in schools and writing articles in local magazines. I have a blog in this subject in Spanish but I want to enlarge readers, so I’m doing my best effort to translate it.

Children sexuality has long been hidden, but fortunately nowadays people can speak out loud about it. We can quote the World Health Organization (WHO) “Sexual health” definition: " Sexual health is a state of physical, mental and social well-being in relation to sexuality. It requires a positive and respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relationships, as well as the possibility of having pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of coercion, discrimination and violence."

To educate our kids in this matter is very important, but sometime as adults we find it hard. We may find many questions about the right information to give, the right things to say, the vocabulary, etc. We do have the responsibility to overcome those obstacles in the way, and find our own point of view in each situation we face. If we think over certain topics in advance, we would be better prepared.

We all have the right to receive sex education. It is part of a dynamic learning proces which promotes integral human development, and contributes to the social development of the community. Sex education promotes the internalization of values ​​related to men and women roles in society, without determined stereotypes, in a framework of equity. It also promotes self-care, and respect for the diversity.

Finally I encourage you to be an active part of this project with you opinions and points of view.

WELCOME!

P.S: I apologize for my english level!
