In this article, the author addresses why some straight-identified men are primarily attracted to women, but have sex with men. This typically happens because they think that extramarital sex with men is less threatening to their marriages than extramarital sex with women. Additionally, many live what they consider a "straight life" and believe that sex with men is irrelevant to their identities.
Close parallels between ancient Rome & the present-day US suggest that the sexual revolutions in both societies were signif'ly influenced by the existential conditions that they confronted at the height of their powers. At the same time, each was constrained in its S-cul responses by the nature of its SC structure. In the US, the ethos of each of 6 broad strata must be examined to comprehend in detail the nature of the US sexual revolution. Many of the changes in our sexual mores & behavior can be traced to recent changes in the SC structure. The spread of higher educ among the Me has meant that a substantial portion of Amer adolescents are regularly exposed to a soc setting in which their sexual behavior is governed essentially by the adolescents themselves. Such a situation could not help but be more permissive than that which prevailed before the modern period. Moreover, since a substantial portion of the pop is now embraced by the Mc's, a growing portion of the pop is exposed to this permissive sexual environment. The sexual revolution in the US, therefore, is largely a blend of existential & structural pressures impinging upon only a segment of the total pop. Modified HA.
Close parallels in ancient Rome and present-day America suggest that the sexual revolutions in both societies were significantly influenced by the existential conditions that they confronted at the height of their powers. At the same time, each was constrained in its sociocultural responses by the nature of its social-class structure. In America we must examine the ethos of each of six broad strata to comprehend in detail the nature of the American sexual revolution. When we do, we see that many of the changes in our sexual mores and behav ior can be traced to recent changes in the social-class structure. The spread of higher education among the middle class has meant that a substantial portion of American adolescents are regularly exposed to a social setting in which their sexual behavior is governed essentially by the adolescents themselves. Such a situation could not help but be more permissive than that which prevailed before the modern period. Moreover, since a substantial portion of the population is now embraced by the middle classes, a growing portion of the population is exposed to this permissive sexual environment. The sexual revolution in America, therefore, is largely a blend of existential and structural pressures impinging upon only a segment of the total population.
Premarital sexual behavior in adolescents has increased from year to year which has an impact on the quality of adolescents, at risk of contracting HIV / AIDS, early marriage, unwanted pregnancy, and continued abortion. Teenage knowledge about the dangers of premarital sexual behavior is very little. The family still considers taboo everything related to sex and counseling from the government or the school is still lacking. While adolescent relationships are now increasingly difficult to control. This study aims to determine the relationship of promiscuity with premarital sexual behavior in high school adolescents in 2018. The design of this study uses analytic observational research with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study was all 118 high school students with a random sampling technique with a systematic random sampling approach to modification of simple random sampling. The number of samples in this study was 55 people. Data obtained through questionnaires made by researchers to respondents who have tested the validity. Data analysis used the Chi-square test with significance level α = 0.05. The results of the data analysis show that p = 0.00 means that there is a relationship between promiscuity and premarital sex behavior among high school adolescents in Bulukumba in 2018. From the results of this research, suggestions that can be given to related institutions, in this case, the Health Office and high school schools can increase counseling about premarital sexual behavior in adolescents at an early stage and need to limit relationships between adolescent boys and girls.
Contrary to certain of the assumptions of Nerlove and Romney (1967) on sibling terminology and cross‐sex behavior, the sibling terminology of the Southeastern Nuba manifests a primary sex‐of‐speaker component and is shown to be conjunctive. Other data appear to weigh against their functional hypotheses for the cross‐parallel distinction in sibling terminology but support a general conclusion that there may be different levels of explanation in kinship usage and that attention should be paid to cultural conceptions of cross‐sex relations.
