Abstract
This article is actually a reaction to the overemphasis on sexuality. Opposing aggressive feminism and sexual anarchy which, under the guise of the "sexual revolution" negate moral competence in the area of sex, invalidate love, marriage, the family and genuine human relations between the sexes; the author advocates an ethical treatment of sexuality, reaffirmation of moral criteria in regulating the relations between women and men as well as training in more humane and responsible parenthood.
The discussion is divided into four parts. In the first, the author warns of the numerous (and pernicious) examples of sexual advertising. In the second, reference is made to positive and recognized pedagogic opinions regarding love, marriage and intimate sexual life. The third cites opinions voiced by young persons on these questions during scientific studies. The fourth concerns significant pedagogic concepts regarding the preparation of young persons for harmonious family relations.
The author's fundamental message is that love, marriage, family life and intimate sexual relations should be presented to young people in a very subtle and ethical manner in accordance with their youthful passion and ideals.
