The education bureau suggests teens who want to have sex could "go out to play badminton together" instead.

It may be an innocent enough racquet sport, but Hong Kong’s Education Bureau has unintentionally given badminton a whole new meaning.

In teaching materials it released last week, a module titled adolescents and intimate relationships for Secondary Year 3, suggested that teenagers who wanted to have sex with each other could “go out to play badminton together” instead.

The materials also include a form called “My Commitment” aimed at getting “young lovers” to attest that they would exercise “self-discipline, self-control, and resistance to pornography”.

    I admittedly haven’t read the material, but your quoted text sounds very vague and indirect. Perhaps there was more content that was more direct and concrete.

      Yeah, I wonder where you could look it up? Maybe in the link OP posted above. Or you could just comment and look stupid, it’s up to you.

        Yeah, I admittedly chose the latter :)
