It’s quite interesting in India
for girls till marriage sex is seen as taboo but immediately after marriage the
biggest expectation that the in-laws have is to give a chirag to the family. Along with other change in role, the sexual
role of a female also immediately changes. This change at time comes as a shock
to the girl who was seen as good daughter of their parents before marriage. I
surely don’t here mean that every girl should involve in sexual activities before
marriage but I recommend that the taboo or a ban on girls to talk about their
sexuality and sexual relationship needs to be removed. CBSE policies to
introduce Sex education in school have given girls a platform to know about
their sexuality and understand responsible sexual relationship from an
authentic source. This will help our country to address various issues like Teenage
pregnancy, STDs, AIDS, etc. It would teach the coming generation Responsible
Sexual Relationships which would be emotionally and physically satisfying for
the couple.
