Popis: | The uncritical reception of the literature that is devoted to matters of sex is creating an oversimplified perception in society concerning human sexuality, and this is affecting young people and adolescents in particular. The negative consequences of the liberalization of sexual morality have been noted in particular by doctors who are reporting increased numbers of abortions and venereal diseases among adolescents, as well as an increase in the numbers of infertile marriages among young marrieds. "The market has been flooded by literature that is not of the best kind, which has opened up new themes: safe sex, AIDS, prostitution, homosexuality…. Information about the sociological and moral sides of sexuality, on the other hand, has been updated about as extensively as during the stagnant era of the 1970s" [2; p. 173]. |
