One of the tasks of preventive medicine as part of sexual prophylaxis is to improve sexual culture. Sexual culture is the entirety of sexual life of a society that origins from magic, religion and ideology in its aesthetic, emotional, family and social manifestations. It permeates art, affects the law, creates its own myths, models of love, ars amandi, norms and customs serving as social rituals. The moral transformations taking place in all countries of the Western cultural area are manifested first of all by the loosening of traditional norms regulating sexual intercourse. Increasingly, researchers sensitize adults to the growing popularity of the so-called orgiastic sex, in which the escalation of sexual stimuli (influenced by alcohol and/or drugs) is associated with the lack of ethical standards and principles, which causes the preference of various atypical (eg. group sex) and deviant forms of sexual activity (eg. sadistic sex). The aim of the research presented in this study was to get to know the sexual culture of Polish and Ukrainian students. Research problems have focused on the following questions: What does the sexual culture mean for the respondents? How many times have the respondents betrayed their partner? How often do the respondents talk to their partners about sexual needs?

The aim of the research was to assess the determinants of risky sexual behaviours of Pol ish migrants in the UK a¤er the year 2004, and to compare those behaviours to thesexual behaviour of the same people before they emigrated from Poland. Results relate to 408 respondents, 56.9% of whom were women. Respondents had a median age of 32 years. 38.7% of them admitted to having unprotected sexual intercourse with an unknown partner in the UK. Such behaviour occurred with greater frequency in the UK than in Poland. Also more respondents declared themselves to have engaged in sexual intercourse a¤er the use of drugs and alcohol in the UK than in Poland. Relatively poor sensitivity to cultural di{erences was, in the case of this research, an independent predictor of unprotected sexual intercourse. Males were more likely to engage in unprotected sex with casual partners as well as sex a¤er alcohol and with multiple partners, which could result in a much higher probability of contracting sexually transmitted infections. All the results demonstrated the signicance of cultural adaptation and sexual education for the health of immigrants.

Sexuality of people with disabilities is an extremely important topic both from a psychopedagogical and health or socio-cultural perspective. Lack of public awareness, sex education and existing myths make it difficult to meet the sexual needs of these people. In addition, people with disabilities experience hysiological and anatomical limitations and also have problems finding a partner. Some of them decide to contact sex workers. One of the proposed solutions is to introduce the profession of sexual assistant (the so-called Sexual accompaniment). The purpose of this article is to describe the role of sexual assistants and the scope of their functioning in various countries as well as to indicate the benefits and restrictions associated with the introduction of this profession.

Material and methods. The research was conducted using a single-group pre-test-post-test follow-up test measurement quasi-experimental design. It was completed between November 2021–June 2022 with 140 participants working in a province in Turkey.

Osoby z niepełnosprawnością intelektualną potrzebują opieki i edukacji w zakresie zdrowia seksualnego i kontroli płodności. Zamierzeniem badań było poznanie wiedzy i opinii studentów kierunków medycznych na temat wybranych aspektów zdrowia seksualnego osób z niepełnosprawnością intelektualną. Badania ankietowe przeprowadzono wśród 140 studentów (średnia wieku 25,6 ± 5,5 lat) lubelskich uczelni kierunków: lekarskiego, pielęgniarstwa i położnictwa. Wiedza i opinie studentów kierunków medycznych na temat przejawów seksualności osób z niepełnosprawnością intelektualną, czy jej realizacji w związkach partnerskich, są zróżnicowane. Studenci w większości uznają potrzeby seksualne osób z niepełnosprawnością i to, że są one zdolne do małżeństwa i prokreacji. Uznają też ich prawo do profilaktyki zaburzeń zdrowia seksualnego. Ponadto studenci dostrzegają potrzebę poprawy komunikacji i opieki medycznej nad osobami z niepełnosprawnością. Kierunek kształcenia różnicuje postawy tylko w nielicznych kwestiach, np. sterylizacji osób niepełnosprawnych czy przygotowania niepełnosprawnych kobiet do okresu menopauzy. Stwierdzono bardzo niski poziom udziału badanych w edukacji akademickiej obejmującej problemy zdrowia seksualnego osób z niepełnosprawnością czy zagadnienia samej niepełnosprawności. W przyszłości może to stanowić czynnik ryzyka dla dyskryminacji i przedmiotowego traktowania osób z niepełnosprawnością ze strony praktykujących specjalistów. Istnieje zatem konieczność intensyfikacji działań edukacyjnych w tym zakresie jeszcze w toku studiów.

People with intellectual disabilities need care and education in the field of sexual health and fertility control. The intention of the research was to learn about the knowledge and opinions of medical students about the selected aspects of the sexual health of people with intellectual disabilities. The survey was conducted among 140 students (average age 25.6 ± 5.5 years) of Lublin universities of medical, nursing and midwifery courses. The knowledge and opinions of medical students about manifestations of sexuality of people with intellectual disabilities (or its implementation in partner relationships) are diverse. Most students accept the sexual needs of people with disabilities and the fact that they are capable of marriage and procreation. They also recognize their right to prevent sexual health disorders. What is more, the students recognize the need to improve communication and medical care for people with disabilities. The direction of education differentiates the attitudes concerning only a few issues, e.g. sterilization of disabled people or preparation of disabled women for the period of menopause. A very low level of participation of respondents in academic education concerning problems of sexual health of disabled people or the issue of disability itself was found. In the future, this might become a risk factor for discrimination against disabled people as well as treating them as objects by practicing specialists. Thus there is the need to intensify education in this area early during the studies.
