Abstract

COMMON AREAS OF MISINFORMATION ABOUT REPORDUCTION AND HUMAN SEXUALITY ARE EXAMINED, AND THE PROBLEMS CAUSED BY THIS MISINFORMATION ARE OUTLINED. IT IS ARGUED THAT MANY OF THE PROBLEMS FACED BY JUVENILES AND ADULTS ALIKE STEM FROM PROBLEMS WITH THEIR OWN SEXUALITY, INCLUDING DRUG AND ALCOHOL ABUSE, AGGRESSIVENESS, AND MARITAL PROBLEMS. A WIDE RANGE OF ISSUES CONCERNING HUMAN SEXUALITY, SEXUAL ROLE BEHAVIOR, AND SEXUAL ATTITUDES ARE EXAMINED.
