This article consists of an exploratory analysis of the perceptions, satisfaction, knowledge and attitudes towards the comprehensive sex education of young aspiring university students in Argentina. Through a quantitative approach, it seeks to analyze the student's point of view on the sex education they have received throughout their education, especially in high school.

Studies about sexuality show that it is an omnipresent part of discourse in educational institutions. Schools were originally not intended to address this subject, long regarded as “private”, thus creating a gap between the transmission of information and its transformative appropriation by students. In Argentina, the Federal Law on Comprehensive Sex Education was passed in 2006, since then, its application has often been researched with an emphasis in teachers training, but after the “Aprender” tests in 2017, in which students were consulted, the stress began to be shifted to the students’ demand for comprehensive sex education. This work aims to explore youth perception of sex education, seeking to know the level of satisfaction perceived on the comprehensive sex education received during their years in high school.

Palabras llave : sexual education; students; perception; quantitative studies.
