Sexuality and Sexual behaviour
A very narrow view of sexuality has been limited to sexual relationships and reproduction among people. It is important to re-examine this concept in the light of working with adolescents or any group of children at any stage of development. Sexuality is not synonymous with sex; rather it is part of a person’s entire life from birth to death. It does not only entail genital and reproductive processes but encompasses gender roles, social roles, self-esteem, feelings and relationships. Sexuality is how one feels about him/herself as being a male or female, how one consequently relates to members of the same and opposite sex, and how one feels about her/himself as a totals person.
