Hidden in the backpack.
Hong Kong Boys and Girls Club is one of very few institutions to provide support for education on trends in sexuality—a topic many schools would rather bury their heads in the sand than address. Many students may have absolutely no concept about what sexuality is, so this unique program covering comparatively rare topics such as the pressures homosexuals face within society may go a long way towards bridging the gap of mutual misunderstanding.
小童群益會是少數為學校提供性傾向教育支援的團體。該會社工指出,性傾向題材敏感,很多學校寧願選擇緘默,導致學生可能沒有正確的性觀念。學生通過教材,明瞭同性戀者在社會上的苦況。政府不斷宣傳社會要尊重不同性傾向人士,提供學校性教育指引,當中提及性傾向卻只有很少篇幅。學校作風保守,同性戀的學生背負不能公開性傾向的壓力,走一條崎嶇路。教育指引列明:「尊重」,這在校園裡能否找得到呢?
