Discarded Condoms Pollute Chinese University Campuses

From Sina:

Who will clean the condoms in the corners of the campus?

It can be said, with improvements in the health education for youth, that a majority of university students’ awareness of sexual protection has increased.

They all know to use condoms, but from the photographs taken from three universities, some problems have also been discovered.

Some secluded corners of campus have become places for college couples to do special activities. Correspondingly, the increasing amount of abandoned condoms has seriously polluted the campus’ environment.

September 26 is World Contraception Day.

This is a day established to promote safe sex and prevent unwanted pregnancies.

As this day draws near, I post a set of photos, and hope that through these photos, we can do some reflection…

1. Location: Qingdao X University, in the dense small woods by the Computer building.

Thanks to Marie Stopes International for providing the photos.

The space under the cypress pines has become the hotbed for couples.

A little closer, what is that on the ground?

As seen from the photographs above, the brands university students use are very mixed.

The pollution of condom packaging above is nothing, take a look at the used condoms below, and seeing that these kinds of images may cause readers’ discomfort, I will not post too many.

2. Below are photographs taken by netizen 欧海春 at 华师 [not sure which “华师” university].

欧 says:

“Actually, a long long time ago I had noticed that I often encounter condom packaging in many corners of the 华师 campus, only in the past I did not care, but today, just after celebrating Mid-Autumn festival and upon returning to campus, for the first time I saw a used condom just hanging there on the plants of the grass in front of the campus library door.

Next is a schoolgirl studying early, and further in the background are schoolboys undergoing military training.”

3. Below are photos of the top floor of a building at a certain university taken by a schoolmate, take a look at what this place has become.

Very disgusting! Boys are shameless, and the girls even more shameless!

阿飞vip:

Not using this will ruin peoples’ lives!

凤雨同舟:

Just knowing to use condoms is already pretty good.

海水:

Haha, [our society has] indeed become very open. Even though this problem is a small problem, it reflects the large problem of the liberalization of university students. Traditional education should definitely be increased/strengthened!

周晚峰:

Ah! I only know that university students these days are without talent and without morals, that graduation for them means unemployment!!! They are useless!! I did not know they are no better than animals!

被风吹过的夏天:

Wow, I could not tell, do university students like to perform “field operations” [have sex outside] that much?

I myself have only graduated in the past few years, but my university’s grass has never turned up this kind of thing!

The school should do something about this.

过路路过:

Such a waste, take them back and wash them to use again. If it is broken beyond use, collect them all, and send them to a non-staple food plant to make them into chewing gum and sell them to us impoverished university students at a cheaper price.

唐贤兴:

I teach at a university, and regarding this problem, I will not discuss from an environment, etc. point of view, but what I want to say is: (1) Sex, to students is no longer a mysterious thing, but rather has become something adults should have the choice to do. As an educator, there is no need to make a big deal of it either. (2) We continue to restrict students’ sexual activities in dormitories, we could never have the kinds of facilities that some Western universities have, and hotels/motels are too expensive for students, so because of these things, these [secluded] corners have become the only option for students. (3) Because of this, under situations where the circumstances do not allow, we should consider acquiring for these places some trash cans or similar receptacles, to make it easier for these students to not thoughtlessly discard condoms. From a management perspective, this is something that can be done, and what more, should be done.

宝贝刘总:

Not bad, at least [they] know to protect themselves, and can be considered an kind of progress.

sunkeady:

I’ve discovered that there are a lot of “shanzhai” condoms.

xutao4410632:

I have decided that tomorrow I will go to universities to market condoms, it’s a good business opportunity~!~

萍踪客影:

What’s so strange? Aren’t many university dorms have condom vending machines?
