[Methodology of out-of-school sexual-ethical education of youths (author's transl)].

The experiences of out-of-school sexual education with about 5000 youths in the district of Magdeburg are reported. The joining of a strange educator, e. g. a physician, in sexual-ethical education is always unfavourable when this is the only form of influence on youths. But at present it is still necessary to do so because of the lack of a sufficient and continuous sexual education at school. It is important here to take part in the discussion of the problems: "friendship-love-sexuality". Discussions are more effective than lectures in the usual sense. But a special course of the talk must be observed and the youths must also get the possibility of single talks. Altogether the cycle should consist of 2 discussions: -juvenile partnership -marriage and family planning.
