World AIDs Day
December 1st was celebrated as World AIDs Day.
How many are aware that India is the 2nd largest carrier of AIDs in the World?
What are we doing to stop the country from becoming No 1?
Honestly! Nothing.
On December 1st, at Churchgate station, there were exhibitions and speeches held by WHO. This is all I saw done on my trip back and forth to office. But these people standing by were obviously not going to pay heed to a one day message.
We need to start having sex education right from the 9th standard in all schools including the Municipal schools. There needs to be continous sex education awareness programmes on the DD channels, as these are the most watched channels all over India. Programmes on AIR and FM on sex education as radio has the largest outreach.
The Programmes have not to be boring where as soon as the person is aware there is a sex education awareness, he/she changes the channel.
Most importantly we need to educate the sex workers and the eunuchs, so that when a male customer comes to them, they can have safe sex.
Condoms need to be made available freely. With the increase in all commodities and groceries, the common man is not going to pay for condoms. This leads to a rise in AIDs.
We at Sunday Joy Club have taken the topic on relatioships for Std VIII. We are dealing with all sorts of relationships and the biggest topic of the year we have to cover is LUST. This will be done in detail by the Director of SJC, Fr. Nigel.
We find that young girls in high school are getting pregnant and Fr. has taken it upon him that we should start giving sex education at our religion classes.
SAY NO TO AIDS. It will take away your life and the one you have sex with.
