open access
Abstract
Introduction: This work assesses general knowledge of Wroclaw university students about their sexuality, which is based on the results of the survey conducted in late 2012 and 2013, compared with the results of analogous studies in 2003. Material and methods: The study involved a group of 330 students from six different universities in Wroclaw. Surveys were distributed in dorms and were filled in the presence of the dealers. Statistical analyses were compared with the results published in the article “The study of sexuality in Wroclaw university students”, published in the Polish Sexology of 2003 Results: We found that female Wroclaw students more often do not plan theirs ‘first time’. They much rather have sex, using a variety of techniques, and as a method of contraception, especially prefer/ use condoms. The main source of their knowledge has become the Internet because they claim that the activities organized in the school are not satisfactory and home does not have the right atmosphere to talk about sex. Young women do not have an opinion about the issue of masturbation but most of them do it. They consider phenomenon of homosexuality and sponsorship as something negative. Conclusions: Students have quite wide knowledge of human sexuality issues and have a less conservative approach. They have a greater awareness of their own needs, as manifested by undertaken more often sex, masturbation and openness to non-vaginal acts. Most of them are aware of the prevalence of the phenomenon of sexual sponsorship.
