/^t/Last year there was a chance of introducing compulsory and well organised sex education to Polish secondary schools. Unfortunately, Poland is such a strange country, where decisions are usually influenced by people least competent in a given field. Owing to this phenomenon, any classes treating sex seriously will not be incorporated into school curriculum. The pressure group composed of the MPs, who judging from their age and views, have for a long time had nothing to do with sex, backed by clergymen, managed to halt the necessary legislation. Their arguments ranged from the lack of demand for such classes, via the dangerous consequences of arising teenagers' interest in this sphere, to claims that sex is only to be dealt with between a husband and his wife.
