Carry on.
I don’t want to be disgusting. And I don’t know if these are urban legends or true facts. But one thing is for sure: Sexual repression is not a sign of a healthy society.
In ancient times (like the 19th century), people would get married as soon as they reached sexual maturity. So sexual repression wasn’t that big of a problem. Today, there are people who don’t get married at all. So I don’t think we can call sexual repression in some countries a purely “cultural” phenomenon. I don’t think it’s a healthy way of doing things. Prostitution will increase, rich people will become sex tourists, sexual perversions and sexual misconduct will increase. There is a whole science behind that. Anyone who knows the basics of human anatomy and physiology will agree with what I am saying.
