Describe the impact of culture on the definition of a sexual disorder. What cross-cultural evidence suggests that "normal" sexual behavior is culturally defined?

What will be an ideal response?

Cultural influences affect what people are told about sexual behavior, as well as what they experience and observe around them. Variations in the age of sexual intercourse, gender roles, and types of behaviors judged acceptable are all functions of cultural values. For example, researchers know that in Papua New Guinea, young boys engage in homosexual oral sex with teenage boys and avoid masturbation because it is believed that semen is crucial for male development. In Western cultures, attitudes toward premarital sex and use of contraception vary.
