SEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS

Investigations into adolescent sexuality are difficult to organize and few, if any, of those made can escape criticism. However, the information obtained from Scandinavia, the U.S.A., and Britain is sufficiently important to be recorded so that the reality of current adolescent sexuality can be contrasted with the conventional illusions.

In all three countries, boys are more likely to have had sexual intercourse, with more partners, than are girls; and both boys and girls of lower socio-economic groups are more likely to have had sexual intercourse at an earlier age than those in higher socioeconomic groups.

Ira Reiss studied adolescent sexual behaviour in America in 1967. He found that he could divide sexual behaviour into four groups. These are (1) Abstinence:
pre-marital intercourse is wrong for both sexes, although some kissing and petting is permitted. (2) The double standard:
this states that as men have a stronger sexual drive than women, and a need to satisfy it, men can ‘indulge’ in sexual intercourse when they want. A woman either should await marriage or, occasionally, may permit sexual intercourse with her fiance. (3) Permissiveness with affection: if the couple have an affectionate, relatively stable relationship, sexual intercourse is permitted. (4) Permissiveness without affection: sex is a universal pleasurable activity for both men and women, and each can enjoy sexual intercourse regardless of the amount of affection which exists between them.
