A family planning agency in France has launched a campaign to encourage young people to talk about sex, inspired by the British TV series “Sex Education”, reports BBC.
Le Planning Family said it was promoting its free helpline with Netflix as part of “the fight for everyone’s access to sex education.”
In French cities, you can find posters with detailed questions inspired by the series, but asked by young people between the ages of 15 and 25, the report said.
The fourth and final season of Sex Education premiered on Netflix last week.
It follows Otis (Asa Butterfield), who, encouraged by Maeve (Emma Mackie), runs a self-proclaimed sex therapy clinic at school.
The Netflix series has been widely praised for its honesty, diversity and portrayal of difficult subjects.
In France, sex education became mandatory in 2001. But Le Planning Familial says young people have questions and few answers.
Après les pubs “sex education”, voila la hotline. Exasperé de voir ces affichages se répéter dans nos rues. Do you want Netflix on this site? This is irresponsible.

The organization said the collaboration comes “at a time when access to complete and reliable information about sex is under threat.”
Sarah Durocher, president of Le Planning Familial, said the series had been a source of information and inspiration in terms of the questions young people had asked the service.

Posters promoting “La Hotline Sex Education” feature five sample questions inspired by the show, including “Is foreplay sex?”, “How do I know if boys or girls like me?” and “Is contraception only for girls?”
Its tagline reads: “It’s the last season, but the sex education continues.”
