MENTAL HYGIENE OF SEX: MOST OF THE IMPORTANT PROBLEMS OF SEX ARE SOCIAL PROBLEMS
Most of the important problems of sex are social problems. Their solution depends upon a knowledge of all the facts and the claims of all the persons involved in each particular situation, and must therefore be left to the individual to work out as well as he can. If he has a reasonable concern for the welfare of others and a fair knowledge of the facts, we can trust his solution to be right in most cases.
There are a few problems, however, which are more distinctly individual. While they may involve other persons, they primarily represent the struggle of an individual in passing through various phases of sexual development from childhood to maturity. These problems may be said to be solved when the individual has adapted himself to all the circumstances of his life in such a way as to give him the maximum happiness throughout his entire life. The solution may vary with different persons. There are very few generalizations on this topic which one can make with confidence. Since, however, worry over these developmental problems has always been very common, especially in adolescence, and since the best basis for a satisfactory solution lies in having some understanding of the process through which one is going or has gone.
