This ongoing research has shown the centrality of sexual and reproductive issues to a host of social problems. However, sexuality and contraceptive practices are often taboo subjects in society. As a result, many policymakers and researchers as well as the general public are unaware of how these important factors shape our society. The goal of the book and lecture series Sexuality and American Social Policy is to generate public discussion on these controversial and timely issues. This report presents a summary of American sexual behavior based on examination of various studies.
