Abstract—Due to the raising attention paid to sexual assault issues in society, both Chinese media and the public begin reflecting the lack of legal protection to teenage victims and deficiencies in current sex education system. At the same time, sex-related cultural revolution is launching from opinion leaders to the whole society. In China, sex was regarded as taboo and the sex education stagnated for many years. Therefore, it is necessary and reasonable to study and analyze the current sex education situation among Chinese college students, who have acquired relatively sound sex-related knowledge.
