VENERAL DESEASES – DOUBLE STANDART
In recent years, especially in Western nations, many women have rejected this double standard of sexuality. Adolescent girls, particularly, have become more active sexually, and so have adolescent males. Both sexes have more casual sex, in which there is no commitment, and they enjoy sex with a greater number of partners. The result has been an increase in the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, particularly gonorrhoea. This is because at least 50 per cent of women infected by men with gonorrhoea develop no symptoms, and consequently do not know that they have the disease. But they have and can spread it to infect their next sexual partner.
Another reason why the sexually transmitted diseases are spreading is because people are increasingly mobile. Work may take a person to a place where he (or she) has few friends. People increasingly take holidays in other countries.
In these unfamiliar places it is easy to make an acquaintance in a pub, a hotel, or a club, to have an exciting sexual experience – and to become infected with a sexually transmitted disease.
