Young World: 5: The Two Sexes

on BBC Two England

Six films about children and the influences on them.

"Perhaps my first realisation of what the sexual act entailed was through dirty jokes told to me by my friends in my last years in primary school.
I'd been brought up with all these kind of ideals, and then quite recently I started thinking well what is the point of preserving your virginity till you're married - you might get a big bring down."

In infancy most children glean sexual information surreptitiously. In teenage they face conflict between traditional morality and constant sexual titillation in 'pop' and advertising - and in this dilemma they are mostly left to make their own decisions.
