A Danish sexology professor is calling for students to view pornography films in class as part of changes to the country 's sex education curriculum . Professor Christian Graugaard said the changes would help students understand the differences between what they see in pornography and the reality of sex . His suggestion echoes similar calls made in Britain last year by a government-backed sexual health forum , which said youngsters must be taught that pornography does not reflect real life . Danish students could soon be watching pornography films in class in order to teach them the differences between what they see on screen and the reality of sex . Mr Graugaard told public broadcaster DR : 'Instead of having sex education be boring and technical , where you roll a condom onto a cucumber , I 'd rather have us educate our children to be critical consumers who see porn with a certain distance and reflection , ' according to The Local . He added that teenagers attempting to copy what they saw in pornography was a 'recipe for broken necks and disappointment ' . Denmark is known for its liberal attitudes to pornography - it was the first country to legalise it , and a recent survey showed three quarters of Danish men , and a third of Danish women , regularly watch it , The Local reported . Early last year in Britain , a document drawn up by sexual health charity Brook , the PSHE Association and the Sex Education Forum issued new guidelines for sex education in schools . The guidelines , criticised by an education campaigner for 'taking children 's childhoods away from them ' - also called for students to be told about the dangers of 'sexting ' - sending explicit text messages - and sharing sexual photos and images . Pupils must instead be taught the difference between real-life relationships and the distorted world of X-rated films . This could involve playing card games in class to decide whether various sexual scenarios belong on ‘ Planet Earth ’ or ‘ Planet Porn ’ and a greater emphasis on relationships , sexuality and staying safe , rather than just the 'mechanics ' of reproduction .
