Although Americans appear to the rest of the world as frank and open peoples the truth is often the opposite when it comes to relating on a personal basis. This is particularly true regarding sexual matters. The fact is, Americans are only now beginning to learn to discuss sex and sexuality with candor and usually […]

Every society is marked by an adolescent stage. A growing-up period. A time when each young member feels he is infinitely more daring and modem than the adults ruling the establishment he often rebels against. Nowhere is this phenomenon more marked than in an open society like ours. Many an adult has smiled in remembrance […]

Immoral people capitalizing on the innocence of others to achieve their goals — a story as old as man. The Bible, history books, law books — all chronicle episodes where one individual has been manipulated for the sake of another. And when the victim is young and innocent, the story is so much the sadder… […]

Normal. A frequently used word, yet a word whose exact meaning is as elusive as the term “perverse”. What those two words imply seems to vary from nation to nation, from community to community, from person to person. Among one African tribe it is considered obscene to expose ones back to others. In many Eskimo […]
