摘要:
Sex education is a key public health endeavor - preventative for a host of conditions. This study's purpose was to identify barriers to sex education faced by Latinas. We used Qualitative Interpretative Meta-Synthesis to synthesize qualitative studies of Latinas' sex education experiences. We analyzed 13 articles searched from December to July 2022, resulting in five themes: 1. Marianismo and Machismo, 2. Consequences of Following Twisted Versions of Machismo and Marianismo, 3. Not Having Positive Relationships, 4. Harmful Protection, and 5. Lack of Care: The Colonizers Know It All. Results depict clearly how traditional gender roles have been used and continue to be used to hurt members of the Latine community, specifically Latinas. The current study points toward the different cultural dynamics that limit Latina's accessibility to adequate sex education.
