Abstract

The change in sexual mores in the U.S. which has occurred since World War 2 had several cultural causes: 1)social mobility; 2)changing sexual roles; 3)mass media influence; and 4)technological advances. As a result attitudes towards sex and toward marriage and families have changed. Family planning programs should provide education and services. The small family norm should be emphasized and appreciation of the role of the family in community life stressed. Further basic research on human reproduction is needed. Fertility and population goals should be established for the U.S. Family planning information should be available to all socioeconomic groups and taught in school to youth. The U.S. should provide family planning assistance to any country requesting it.
