It is a subject that would make most parents, teenagers and teachers blush, but officials in Spain are tackling masturbation hands on, launching a major programme to help children in their "discovery of self-pleasure".
"Pleasure is in your own hands" is the slogan of a campaign that has sparked political controversy and challenges traditional Roman Catholic views on sex, the Guardian reports.
"This is an intimate subject that should be dealt with at home," complained local opposition leader Hernández Carrón of the rightwing People's party. "We have become the laughing stock of Spain."
"They are interfering with the right of parents to educate their own children about a matter as important as their sexuality," agreed the conservative Confederation of Fathers and Mothers of Schoolchildren.
Despite the opposition, officials from the neighbouring region of Andalucia have expressed an interest in copying the programme.
The campaign includes leaflets, flyers, a "fanzine" and workshops for the young in which they receive instruction on self-pleasuring techniques along with advice on contraception and self-respect.
Extremadura's government is funding the campaign through its youth and women's affairs departments.

There is nothing wrong with making these children comfortable with their bodies. But this is a touchy subject to teach I'm sure everyone can learn how to do it on there own.

dude, this is interesting!!
more power to anyone who wants to teach children the harmless beauty and pleasure that comes with the human body at an early age.
this could yield a different generation of open-minded and free-thinking individuals.
