..........Alternate sexual education should have sexuality
and gender as its main focus, unlike the NACO material, which
concentrates on sexual activities. We need to liberate sexuality from
the hitherto centres; vagina, penis, anus. Sexuality is something more
than sexual acts, and there are multiple ways to produce and enjoy our
own sexuality.................

ways of sexual acts.

sexuality is a social construction for a tighter social power on our body if
u can erase natural/cultural binaries. we don;t enjoy our sexuality. we
enjoy sex.
