Japanese sex education curricula are often limited both in scope and duration compared to the United States. The inefficacy of Japanese sex education is evident in increasing rates of teen pregnancy, abortion, and sexually-transmitted diseases. 2019 English text Wittenberg University Honors Theses / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=wuhonors1617707670361019 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=wuhonors1617707670361019 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
