'Extremely urgent': Sweden produced films about sexuality education for immigrants (Strict 18 +)

The Swedish government has funded a series of educational films to teach immigrants about sex and their reproductive rights, and the Minister of Social Affairs called this project "extremely urgent"

Animated films are the work of the Swedish Association for Sexual Education (RFSU). So far, the Association for Sexual Health has created 11 videos that cover various aspects of sexual education, such as "Lust and Beauty", "Women's Genitals", "Pain in Sex" and "Birth of a Child".

Swedish Minister of Social Affairs Annika Strandhall has announced an injection of 3.7 million crowns ($ 416,000) to help finance the project.

"We have found that some of the women in this group come from societies with completely different norms, rules and laws," she said at the Swedish National Public Television STV.

"This project will give this group of women a better chance of understanding sexual and reproductive rights in Sweden." The minister added that financing is "extremely urgent".

The video explains sexual norms in Sweden in a series of languages, including Arabic, Somali, Persian, Kurdish and English.

RFSU's website indicates that the goal of the video is to emphasize that "everyone has the right to sex, relationships and body". With a new tranche of funding, the charity wants to create new versions of the video in multiple languages.

In 2016, the German government launched a similar Zanzu website offering "tips on sex and sexuality for immigrants who do not live long in Germany."

The website has caused a mixed public response. Some commentators praised it for their direct access to sexuality, while others said that power was being hounded by immigrants.

Heinz-Jürgen Voss, a sex scientist at the University of Merseburg, told Washington Post that it is "racist" to assume that foreigners have less sexual education than Germans.

"It's important to promote this kind of open and free sexuality, and fight for it," he said.

We Bolchat site will not publish the video because we believe that Video is not fair to immigrants and it is not human to make the film due to immigrants
