Abstract

Absent sexual education amid a culture of sexual repression, unmarried youth of Bangladesh have sex, as they do all over the world. But, given lack of resources and institutional support for teens who have sex, particularly outside of marriage, they are vulnerable to a variety of concerns: reproductive and sexual health problems, sexual violence, and emotional and psychological harm. In this study, we examine factors that predict teen sex among a sample of school students as a way to identify teens who are potentially in need of sexual and mental health services.
