Abstract

This article shows key ideas to include in the contents of the programs of health education on affectivity and sexuality, normally directed to teenagers, but that also have an excellent reception among the adults. Nowadays an important reflection appears beyond the classic idea of educating to avoid not wished pregnancies and diseases of sexual transmission: sex is a positive and enriching force of human life that contributes to our process of personal growth as complete beings (body + energy + emotions + mind + soul). It is the sexual health from the holistic (total) point of view, health as the greatest development of the person.
