HIV lessons fun at Indian sex museum

Categories: Diet & Weight Loss

Sheesh. Safe sex lectures are so boring. At least that's the verdict in Mumbai, where the city's sex museum is giving HIV education a kick in the pants. The exhibit is so informative, that it's attracting hundreds of prostitutes and their regular clients.

The museum, Antarang, is the only one of it's kind in India, and lacks the pizazz of similar institutions in New or Amsterdam. Nevertheless, "A sex museum is a better place to learn about sex and everything related to it," says M.G. Vallecha, the chief of Antarang.

India has more citizens infected with HIV than any other country -- a number currently estimated at 5.7 million, that experts fear could quadruple by 2010. Officials are hopeful that the sex museum will work to combat HIV and AIDS -- allowing people to get over their inhibitions, and discuss safe sex more openly.
