緒論 - 什麼是性行為? |
性行為當前的含義 3:
生殖行為 |
人的生殖行為 |
|
在最高等的哺乳動物——人,其性行為模式甚至變得更有可塑性和更為複雜。人自生下來就具備一些基本的性反應能力,但是並不具備以任何特定方式實施性交的能力。因而,(要獲得性交的能力),他們幾乎完全依賴於觀察和體驗。人類的性行為變化多端,並且生殖不再成為其基本的功能。與之不同的是,人類個體的性滿足及其多種多樣的社會聯繫目的可能變得尤為重要。簡而言之,當我們討論人類的(性行為的)時候,我們不能只是簡單地把它與生殖等同起來。人類的性行為超越了生殖行為的範疇,所以需要我們從更廣泛的角度加以研究和做出解釋[1]。

Introduction - What is sexual behavior? |
Current Meanings of the Term 3: Reproductive Behavior
|
Humans
|
|
The behavioral pattern becomes even more flexible and complex in the highest mammal - man. Human beings are born with the capacity for certain basic sexual responses, but are not in any specific way programmed for mating. Thus, they depend almost entirely on observation and experience. Their sexual behavior is exceedingly variable, and fertilization may no longer be its primary function. Instead, individual satisfaction and various social goals may turn out to be much more important. In short, when we talk about humans we cannot simply equate sex with reproduction.
Human sexual behavior is more than reproductive behavior, and it therefore requires another, much broader definition than the one provided above.
