本教程對性行為的定義：先期考慮的問題 |
|
在進入後續的教程之前，我們應該指出，“行為”本身的概念是複雜的，並且是需要進一步澄清的。例如，許多學者把“行為”區分為“顯現的（overt）”和“未顯的（covert）”兩類，即：
因而，在闡述性行為的概念中，我們可以區分出“性舉動（sexual
act）（顯現的）”和純粹的“性感覺（sexual
feeling）（未顯的）”，所以我們可以把性行為在“行為”的術語涵蓋下包括這兩種狀態。當然，這種區分也有其缺點，不過，無論如何，這種缺點所隱含的意義只不過涉及一些專家。為方便學習本導論課，我們沒有在性行為的所有方面做進一步闡述和分析。我們只是把我們自己的定義規定得相對簡單一些。 |

Introduction - What is sexual behavior? |

Our Definition 1 - What is “behavior”?
|
|
Before proceeding further, it should be pointed out that the concept of “behavior” itself is complex and needs some additional clarification.
For example, many writers distinguish between “overt” and “covert” behavior, i.e.
1.
behavior that is “acted out” and visible
(overt)
and
2.
mere psychological reactions without any visible manifestations
(covert).
Thus, in the case of sexual behavior, one could distinguish between sexual
acts (overt) and mere sexual
feelings (covert), and one could subsume both of them under the term “behavior”. However, this usage also has its drawbacks and, in any case, its implications concern only certain specialists. For the practical purposes of this introductory course, we do not have explore this possible distinction in all of its possible directions. Instead, we restrict ourselves to a relatively simple definition of our own.
