[澳洲资讯] 调查报告显示:少年的非自愿性行为上升
调查报告显示:少年的非自愿性行为上升
更多的少年呈现出和更多的性伙伴发生更多性行为的趋势,但是非自愿的性行为发生的次数也提升了。
第四次全国少年性健康调查搜集了全国州立,教会和私立学校的差不多3000名10-12年级学生的信息。
大约三分之一的学生,尤其是女性,有过非自愿的性行为。大多是在性伙伴的压力或者醉酒的情况下发生。
我很疑惑为什么没有包括因为周围的伙伴的情况造成的心理压力。也许报告把这个分在另外一个类别里了。
重要结论
之一:90%的性行为是自愿发生的,说明少年喜欢和享受性,说明少年性教育的必要性。
之二:非自愿性行为上升了10%, 说明少年需要保护的紧迫性。
关于“unwanted sex"的翻译,
有人翻译成“意外性行为”
如果是unwanted pregnancy, 翻译为“意外怀孕”就非常贴切。
但是把unwanted sex翻译为意外性行为,就有了难以避免和不可避免的意思,
如果看这个性教育网站,
http://www.yoursexhealth.org/html/details.php?det=1,0
就会知道Unwanted sex大多是指在不是自愿的情况下,被他人压力,或者其他借口等的原因下发生的。是可以避免,应该避免和必须避免的行为。遭遇Unwanted sex的人很多是非法行为的受害者。
所以,我认为将其翻译为“非自愿性行为更确切些,教育意义也更明确。而“意外性行为”就没有明确的给性行为划定界限的意义。
相近的词还有Regretted sex.
少年应明白自愿和非自愿的区别,清楚在调情互动自然而然发生和在他人压力或者其他借口下发生的界限。
保护青少年,任重道远。
Unwanted teen sex on the rise: reportBy Bronwyn Herbert for AM

More teenagers are having more sex with more partners, but the amount of unwanted encounters is also on the rise.
The latest snapshot of teenage sexual behaviour has revealed that more than a third of high school students have experienced unwanted sex, particularly women.
The fourth National Survey of Students Sexual Health heard from almost 3,000 students in years 10 and 12, from state, Catholic and independent schools.
Associate Professor Anne Mitchell from the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society at La Trobe University says there are some worrying behavioural changes and also some surprising knowledge gaps, including on cervical cancer.
"We've seen an increase overall in the number of students who've had sexual intercourse," she said.
"Probably most notably we've seen increase in the numbers of young women in particular that are having unwanted sex - that's up nearly 10 per cent from last time.
"It's a very significant change, really. You want to be seeing that go down, but instead it's a major increase as far as we're concerned.
"The reason that young people are... having unwanted sex is that it's either pressure from the sexual partner or being too drunk at the time."
She says that while the number of students drinking has actually decreased, those that still consume alcohol are drinking even more, which impacts on their sexual behaviour.
One of the more surprising trends from the study reveals an increase in oral sex amongst young people, particularly with multiple partners.
Yet Professor Mitchell fears that education programs into human papilloma virus and cervical cancer are not registering amongst young, sexually active teenagers.
She says the concern stretches back to when HIV and AIDS was at the centre of sexual education, with fewer and fewer students using protection.
"We were extremely disappointed with the answers that the knowledge of the human papilloma virus and of cervical cancer was quite poor when you consider that we have had education associated with the vaccination program," she said.
"It doesn't seem to have been effective in letting young people know what they've been vaccinated against and how that all fits together, so that's definitely an area where there's room for improvement.
"When the survey first started it was really geared around HIV and trying to make sure young people were protecting themselves against HIV...but we have seen over that time more young people having sexual intercourse, about a quarter of year 10 and half of year 12.
"We're also seeing an increase in the amount of condom use, although not a huge increase - 69 per cent of the sample used condoms.
"I guess for contraception more than STIs because when they're on the pill they tend to throw the condoms away.
"We're also seeing that by and large over that time young people are having sex when they want it and enjoying the sex.
"So in spite of some of the more frightening aspects of the survey, the base-line information that comes out of it is that young people are enjoying the sex that they're having and that they're able to look after [themselves]."
