WGR10402 - Consumer Sex : No Strings Attached, Part 1

5/23/2012

(Program 10402)
Guest: Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse

Sexual union has two goods, two natural functions, so too speak : spousal unity and procreation. The sexual revolution of the 60’s sought to turn this truth on its head with the notion that sexual union is purely for the purpose of obtaining personal pleasure and satisfaction.

And, in this our day and time, it is this notion of sexual union that holds sway in our cultural consciousness. But does consumer sex work? Does it lead to pleasure and satisfaction? Is it possible for two individuals to engage in this most intimate of unions with no strings attached? What is the evidence revealing and what does the research say?
