China's sexual revolution
'We have humanized sex'

BEIJING, China (CNN) -- It's a common scene in many western countries: Half naked women dancing on tables, bleary-eyed men watching intently.
A scene like this in China would have been unthinkable a decade ago. No more.

Meet Bao Huai, a Chinese youth set out to demystify sex in China.

"People no longer use sex as a yardstick of personal ethics. We have humanized sex, " says Bao.

He is writing a book titled "In and Out" on the explosion of sex in traditionally modest and prudish China.

"When you walk on the street, you see billboards advertising Calvin Klein underwear. When you watch a DVD movie, the first scene may be lovemaking. People are stimulated by these images and start to think more about sex," Bao says.

A sexual revolution is now afoot in China, where men and women no longer hesitate to touch each other in public.

Talking about sex is also more common and shops in Beijing now offer an array of marital aids and specialty condoms.

Pan Suiming, a sexologist at People's University conducted a nationwide survey on Chinese sexual behavior.
