Unsafe sex rife among college students

"GUANGZHOU - Chinese college students are developing increasingly open attitudes toward sex but do not have a strong awareness of safe sex, a survey released on Friday has suggested.

Some 48 percent of students polled in the survey accepted premarital sex, the survey said.

The study was conducted by the Guangdong provincial population and family planning commission and Guangdong provincial sexology association between Oct 9-15. The survey consulted 1,000 students at 10 universities in Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong province.

Only 34 percent of respondents said they used condoms. Nearly 30 percent of respondents said they did not think it was necessary to use condoms."
