Concern about explicit video content

Hello everyone, while I support the importance of comprehensive sex education, I’d like to raise a concern about the inclusion of the explicit video in this article. The video includes real-life, which I believe goes beyond what is necessary to demonstrate proper safe sex practices.

There is already a clear and informative diagram that shows the steps of condom application. This fulfills the educational purpose without the need for explicit sexual content. The presence of real sex acts, especially in a non-clinical context, also risks attracting viewers with non-educational intentions, which could undermine the credibility of Wikipedia as a neutral and reliable resource.

I suggest we consider replacing the video with a less explicit alternative—such as an animated or clinical demonstration—or removing it altogether, given that the instructional goal (see the image before) is already met.

I’d appreciate hearing others’ thoughts on this. Thank you! Agniv Nandy (talk) 08:00, 2 June 2025 (UTC)Reply

An anonymous editor added this video in the latest edit to this article - special:diff/1282456491/1287636024
The video added was File:Safe sex.webm by commons:user:NudistPhotographer.
I am in favor of demonstrative videos but this is obviously pornography and lacks an aim to be educational.
Template:Ping Thanks for messaging here. Despite this article having a lot of watchers, I think that none of the usual reviewers checked this particular edit, because this video is not normally what Wikipedia editors accept for educational sexual content.
