Sex education in India
However, one common aspect remains: The origins of this silence towards India's rich contributions to sexuality and shunning of it almost are to be found in the repurcussions of the colonial rule and of the Bible. However, from the second half of the 20th century, several significant voices have challenged this silence imposed over sexuality and questioned the roles assigned to desires within the socio-political and artistic fields. Many recently published studies confirm the richness of India's erotic past and popular voices are now spotlighting this for the masses to know. A myriad of folk tales, [2] sculptures like those in Khajuraho , [3] [4] religious poetry [5] and scholary documents [6] reveal homoerotic content and how love and sex between women, men, gods, semi-gods and goddesses was expressed.
