(http://www.ipt-forensics.com/journal/volume5/j5_2_8.htm)
"Dawkins's theory of gene transmission is extended and applied to develop a theory about the variety of human sexual behavior. According to this theory, the many different types of human sexual behavior, including the paraphilias, can be seen as having species survival value. These atypical sexual behaviors all, in some way enhance the general level of sexual excitation in society and therefore increase the likelihood that people will engage in sexual activities that lead to procreation." | | | | Alternative Sexual Practices
(http://www.umkc.edu/sites/hsw/issues/intro.html)
"Defining unusual, atypical, or non-mainstream sexual behavior is not an easy task. Many sexual practices that were once deemed wrong or forbidden appear to be common nowadays. If the majority of people are engaging in a particular behavior, does that mean that the behavior is normal and therefore perhaps, permissible?" |
