Document Summary
The study of sexuality in cultures that are distant from our own enables us to better understand ourselves and the ways in which our own culture shapes our sexuality. Our sexuality can be influenced by biological factors. How we voluntarily express out sexuality is a matter of personal choice. Many aspects of human sexuality are viewed as moral issues, involving questions of right. Our sexuality is also influenced by the social context in which we live and wrong. One use of the word sex refers to whether were anatomically male or female or somewhere in between. The words sex and sexual also refer to the anatomical structures called sex organs, that play a role in reproduction and sexual pleasure. We may also speak of sex when referring to physical activities involving our sex organs for purposes of reproduction or pleasure. Sex also relates to erotic feelings, experiences, or desires, such as sexual fantasies and thoughts and feelings of sexual attraction.
