RESPONSE IN THE FEMALE : SEXUAL EXCITEMENT – CHANGES IN THE CLITORIS
The clitoris is the master-key to unlock the female orgasm. The male partner must be well aware of its location and thoroughly familiar with its anatomy.

SEMINAR TRAINING FOR CONTRACEPTIVE CARE – THE PHYSICAL EXAMINATION (CONCLUSION)
In the seminar doctors learn how important it is to identify and pay tribute to the specific body fantasy. One young woman, unable to make love since the birth of her last baby three years before, had already had two reconstructive operations to her perineum. She described her sense that each time she was stitched [...]

ANALYSIS OF THE FAMILY PLANNING CONSULTATION – THE TIME FACTOR
Many doctors fear that adopting the counselling mode will encourage patients to waffle on indefinitely and they will never get home. This fear appears to be misplaced. Considering the importance of ascertaining the reason for the consultation, it is vital to give the patient a fair hearing. Wilkinson (1989) found that three-quarters of general practice [...]

PSYCHOSEXUAL PROBLEMS IN THE CONTRACEPTIVE CONSULTATION – OVERT SEXUAL COMPLAINTS (INSTANCE)
Sometimes patients can make what seems to be an overt complaint but need assistance in order to make the problem clear, not only to the doctor, but also to themselves.

PATTERNED OFFENDERS: SEXUAL AROUSAL
In five of the six groups more patterned than incidental offenders reported strong sexual arousal from seeing or thinking of females. The differences are large, about 20 percentage points or more in four instances, with roughly one third to one half of the patterned offenders having told us of strong arousal as opposed to only [...]

STATUS OF OFFENDER AT TIME OF OFFENSE: FIRST OFFENDERS VS. RECIDIVISTS
Certain shortcomings of this data should again be pointed out. The opportunity for recidivistic behavior in sex offenses is obviously related to the severity of the first conviction and also to the length of time between the man’s first offense and his age at the present report. In the longer-term convictions, such as are meted [...]

EXTRAMARITAL COITUS: PROPORTION OF TOTAL OUTLET
The proportion of total sexual outlet constituted by extramarital coitus with companions is ordinarily less than one tenth. Indeed, in only four groups did the proportions exceed this in any of the age-periods, and in two of these the percentages are 11 and 12 per cent. General trends are difficult to discern and it is [...]

MASTURBATION AMONG SINGLE: PROPORTION OF TOTAL OUTLET
Among humans masturbation is usually a second-choice method of achieving gratification, and indicates an inability to find a sexual partner. Consequently, one expects and finds that in age-period puberty-15, when most individuals are inexperienced and inept in sociosexual relationships, masturbation is at its peak of quantitative importance. As sociosexual expertise develops with age (and society [...]
