Behavior: Straight Talk on Sex in China

(2 of 2)

AIDS infections, though still much rarer than in the U.S., are spreading rapidly, as are other sexually transmitted diseases. Along with promiscuity, prostitution is on the increase. By pretending such problems do not exist, the government perpetuates misinformation and ignorance. Liu hopes his study, which will be published in book form next year, will help give the Chinese people the information they need to make sex safer and even more pleasurable.
