32、 Though rare, sexual behavior exists among college students,“ notes a male sophomore in the Political Science Department of the Nankai University. Its natural for them to use condoms, he believes, and nothing to be ashamed of. Liu Dalin is a scholar engaged in cultural research. He believes that col

The survey found that 10 percent of the male students had sex before marriage. “This rate has obviously been rising in recent years,“ Liu says.

34、He notes that members of the younger generation are generally more sexually precocious, and their first ejaculation or menstrual period is commonly one or one and a half years earlier than of kids in the 1950s. Improved living standards and better nutrition account heavily for this, while the influe

Earlier maturation in sex-related psychology inevitably leads to earlier sexual needs, a phenomenon commonly found in many countries and regions during their development. “Its a good thing,“ says Liu. “Ho
