Christine Choi , the education Secretary expressed a good criticism that the guidelines was not much cringe which serves as a protective way to young people and a type of moral imperative  

The Critics also said that the guidelines must teach young ones to respect themselves and build up responsibilities to develop their future and control on their intimacy limits  and should not impose blanket condemnation on their premarital sex which is unrealistic

The main Criticism is that most of the students may not be comfortable in talking about Sex which may pressurize them to learn about it . The second thing is that the contents and techniques provided in the Sex Education document was out dated which tells people to play Badminton when intimate / Sexual behaviors raise in their minds . The techniques seemed mockery for the students.
