Social norms and sexuality among women

Sex, sexuality, sex education, decisions regarding sex in general and role of women in particular has always been such topics or considerations from which we either want to shy away or not want to discuss perceiving them as something alien to us. The purpose of this article to discuss the relationship between social norms and sexual behaviour among women as it has been largely understood that men tend to have more liberal sexual attitudes than women meaning men are more likely to be accepting of casual sex (sex outside of a committed relationship). What are the reasons of this differentiated sexual behaviour in men and women and how social norms are influencing the sexual behaviour particularly of women is the area of discussion in this article.
