The failings of Luxembourgish sex education and why we need to fix them
If, like me, you got the traditional Luxembourgish sex ed treatment, you learned a whole lot about the way sperm cells are produced but not so much about consent and pleasure. You also learned nothing about the social and political context which we live in, and how it impacts our sexuality and relationships.
A Luxembourgish Queer History
Luxembourg made history when its current head of state, Xavier Bettel, became the first openly gay prime minister in the world to be reelected for a second term in 2018. Nevertheless, Luxembourg’s queer history is rather hard to tell, with very little evidence of documented LGBTQIA+ events.
