本章借鉴最近一项针对年轻人（16-25 岁）对“美好性行为”和性快感的理解和体验的研究数据，批判性地审视了英国背景下的“性健康”概念。本章首先概述了英国和英国的健康和教育政策如何采用“性健康”概念，并探讨了当前政策方法的一些优点和局限性。然后，本章探讨了该研究的研究结果如何使围绕健康和教育政策的争论复杂化，并提出了如何在青年、教育和卫生机构环境中实施性福祉和“良好性”概念的问题。研究表明，年轻人认为有一系列“良好”的性经历，但不一定能增强他们的“幸福感”或促进更安全的性行为。这就提出了这样的问题：与年轻人一起工作的从业者如何处理年轻人对“美好性”的理解与促进性福祉的政策议程之间有时令人不安的不匹配。
Drawing on data from a recent study of young people’s (16–25) understandings and experiences of “good sex” and sexual pleasure, this chapter critically examines the concept of “sexual wellbeing” in the UK context. The chapter begins by outlining how concepts of “sexual wellbeing” have been taken up in English and UK health and education policies and explores some of the benefits and limitations of current policy approaches. The chapter then examines how research findings from the study complicate debates around health and education policy and raise questions about how to operationalize concepts of sexual wellbeing and “good sex” in youth, education and health institutional settings. The research suggests that there is a range of sexual experiences that young people consider to be “good” that may not necessarily enhance their “wellbeing” or promote safer sexual practices. This raises questions about how practitioners working with young people can manage the sometimes uncomfortable mismatch between young people’s understandings of “good sex” and a policy agenda for promoting sexual wellbeing.
