Description

We considered the present status and assignments as for human sexuality education in Japan, in order to make fully understand the methodology as essential education. Using literature and documentation, we divided the history of human sexuality education into 4 times as follows ; 'time of education for control sexual desire' at 1900-1940 years, 'time of purity education' at 1941-1960 years, 'time of sexuality education' at 1961-1980 years, and 'time of human sexuality education' at 1981- years. Although human sexuality education in modern time was completed as concept which hasn't sex discrimination, in comparison to other times, we pointed out that human sexuality education based on health promotion and health education are needed to build healthy and clean humanity. In this point, ability and capacity in teacher should be improved not only in human sexuality education, but also in health promotion and education, although to keep learning environment more healthy and clearly. At least, in the view point of infection with HIV, HBV, HCV, or other a disease-causing microorganism, early pregnancy, drug abuse, etc., human sexuality education may be peerless vaccine for prevent above problems. Also, most important learning for humanity building was human sexuality education.
