247 - Jair Bolsonaro resumes his live broadcasts and asks parents to "tear out" pages about sex education from the Adolescent Health Booklet. He said he will reissue the Booklet, printed by the Ministry of Health for girls aged 10 to 19, because it contains "information inappropriate for the target audience." The "recommendation" to "tear out" the content dedicated to sex education is precisely to "wait" for the new Booklet, which should be republished without the sex education section.
The report from the newspaper O Globo highlights that "uA page displayed by Bolsonaro has six drawings on how to use a male condom, from opening the packaging to how to put it on and, after sexual intercourse, how to remove it from the penis and throw it in the trash. Another page explains how teenage girls should insert a female condom.
According to the newspaper, "the president also shows the camera a sheet of paper with a drawing of a vulva, highlighting its divisions. The text also details how proper intimate hygiene of the genitalia should be performed." Another page highlighted by the president, titled 'Talking about sexuality...', features an illustration of three young couples. According to the text, 'it is during adolescence that interest in affective and sexual relationships also begins. Therefore, it is normal for teenagers to manipulate their own bodies (masturbation) in search of pleasurable sensations.'"
