Popis: There are a number of factors that are likely to influence sexual behavior at the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century. A brief attempt has been made to characterize the world of the next generation or 2 focusing on the basic elements of socioeconomic and sociopolitical forces population increase and simultaneous decrease in available space and automation and cybernation. On the basis of these general assumptions the factors of family structure marriage male-female relationships and the effects of large organizations on male and female role playing that are likely to influence sexual behavior are included. Discussion also focuses on the direct and indirect consequences of the rapid increase in population on future sexual behavior; this includes consideration of the types benefits and limitations that various methods of inhibiting population growth are likely to have. Possible effects of anticipated forced leisure on sexual behavior is also considered. It is very important that more humanistically oriented persons devote time to planning for the abundance of problems that will result from this growing post-industrial-cybercultural era. Almost no consideration has been given to the effects of these interrelated technologic-sociologic changes on the individual and the feedback by the individual upon these interrelated forces. An attempt has been made to interrelate these 3 elements.(AUTHORS MODIFIED)
