	Diana Mertz Hsieh: Sexuality in Islamic Cultures (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		That sexual repression and regulation was and is still commonplace in Judeo-Christian societies provides some prima facie evidence that the sexual repression in Islamic societies is not primarily a result of the influence of the religion.
		Two basic ideas seem to lie at the root of the justifications for sexual repression, namely that unregulated contact between the sexes is dangerous and that the sexes have vastly different "natural" roles in life and in society.
		The forms that the sexual repression in Islamic society are as varied as the justifications for that repression, although some practices seem relatively universal.

	American College of Orgonomy - Sexual Theories of Wilhelm Reich
		The usual distortion is that he advocated "free" sexual expression - "obey that impulse" - amounting to a wild and frantic promiscuity ever seeking a mystical, ecstatic orgasm that is supposed to cure all neuroses and even physical ills.
		Repression occurs when parents or nurturers restrict emotional expres-sion in the growing child through a series of repeated verbots - "Boys don't cry"; "You must not leave a scrap on your plate"; "Stop touching yourself"; etc. - without regard for the child's needs.
		Its chief instrument is the suppression of sexuality in the infant and the adolescent.

	glbtq >> social sciences >> The Sexual Revolution, 1960-1980
		The impact of earlier sexual experimentation was reinforced by the later age of marriage; thus, young men and women had more time available to acquire sexual experience with partners before entering upon a long-term monogamous relationship.
		He argued that sexual expression (primarily, the orgasm) was natural and that social control of libidinal energies by the family, institutionalized sexual morality, and the state was destructive.
		The sexual revolution of the 1960s was initiated by people who shared many of Reich's beliefs (whether or not they got them from him directly) about the detrimental impact of sexual repression.

	Sigmund Freud (1856-1939).
		Freud was big on hypnosis, but it eventually took a second seat to another of his ideas, that of "free association." Freud placed much emphasis on infantile sexuality and emphasized that many of our problems in later life come from our relationships with our parents, the so-called Oedipus complex.
		2 The symptoms of neurosis, according to Freud, "are essentially substitute gratifications for unfulfilled sexual wishes." From Freud's teachings sprang a whole industry; which has milked, and continues to milk, most all of western society; as a sizable portion of the population goes about psychoanalyzing their fellows.
		So repression is one of the so-called "defence mechanisms," by which a person attempts to avoid inner conflicts.

	Most sexually addicted people have tried to overcome their addiction by repression through one of the approaches ...
		Often, the urges do not stay repressed, at which point, the addict accepts and renews again his or her compulsive behavior.
		Religious counseling and psychotherapy also are geared to repressing the desire, along with prayer and implications of moral threats and guilt.
		We have evolved to a societal view that sexual urges of almost any variety are acceptable, that if it feels good, do it, and there should be no quilt or shame associated with any activity that gratifies.

	Critical Concepts: Repression (alternatives to it: Freud's parable of the horse of Schilda)
		People are afraid of doing harm by psycho-analysis; they are afraid of bringing the repressed sexual instincts into the patient's consciousness, as though that involved a danger of their overwhelming his higher ethical trends and of their robbing him of his cultural acquisitions.
		Owing to their repression, neurotics have sacrifices many sources of mental energy whose contributions would have been of great value in the formation of their character and in their activity in life.
		It happens to be precisely the components of the sexual instinct that are specially marked by a capacity of this kind for sublimation, for exchanging their sexual aim for another one which is comparatively remote and socially valuable.

	Sexual Drives
		I mean, look at the whole Church scandal -- that certainly resulted from sexual repression, and while the Torah doesn't require life-long chastity, it does prohibit all sexual behavior and thought for at least an eight year period (between puberty and the usual earliest age of marriage).
		When procreation is not feasible, repression is not the answer, as you have shown with your example of the priests who become sexual offenders.
		It is against nature and reason to use repression, attempting to squelch that which keeps surging.

	Islam and Sexual Repression
		Western psychologists accuse religion of repressing the vital energy of man and rendering his life quite miserable as a result of the sense of guilt which especially obsesses the religious people and makes them imagine that all their actions are sinful and can only be expiated through abstention from enjoying the pleasures of life.
		Repression is not the result of abstention from performing the instinctive act.
		The sexual instinct is elevated to the rank similar to that of the best perfume on earth, and it is bracketed with prayer which is the best means by which men may come closer to God.

	Feminine Sexual Repression
		If the queen goddess was not sexually satisfied by the male of her choice, it was considered a sign that the land and its productivity --and the collective itself-- were in trouble.
		If a woman expresses sexual interest, she is a whore, a slut, or promiscuous.(2) Lolita is created and recreated by men, but she rarely writes her own account of events (3).
		If a woman retains control over her sexuality, if she feels powerful in her sexual decisions and has sex with whom she wants when she wants to, her odds of a reasonable outcome are good.

	more on Conservative Sexual Frustration \| TPMCafe
		Some are arguing that sexual repression/frustration among the right emerges from a desire to control and an authoritarian impulse but I think this is backwards.
		It is precisely the mistrust of one's sexuality that sets up the entire paradigm that humans are uncontrollable animals who need external dictates and mores to repress and keep in check the uglier side.
		Since their religion is so intensely in control of subverting their sexuality, and in many of these cases they're already too old (and pissed off about what they missed out on), the key is by reaching the youth vote.

	The Irrational in Politics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		External factors consolidate sexual repression and the sexual repression predisposes to the influence of the external factors.
		It is impossible to understand how or why sexual repression originated - and what influences maintain, enhance or weaken it without seeing the problem in a much wider context, namely that of the historical evolution of relations between the sexes, in particular of the evolution of such human relationships as kinship and marriage.
		We are not saying that sexual factors are to be substituted for economic ones in the understanding of social reality or that understanding sexual repression will automatically generate an insight into the mechanisms of exploitation and alienation which are at the root of class society.

	Henry James. The Turn of the Screw. Ghost story, or study in libidinal repression?
		This suggests that the governess is sexually repressed and that the ghosts might be figments of her excitable imagination (Samuels 56).
		In Freudian terms the governess can be seen as sexually repressed, hence she starts to interpret the ghost according to her neurotic visions as actual ghosts not mere hallucinations.
		It is an awkward situation and, perhaps as a result of her sexually repressed state of mind, she compares the scene to a newly married couple being embarrassed at the presence of the maid.

		Armoring of the character is the basis of loneliness, helplessness, craving for authority, fear of responsibility, mystical longing, sexual misery, of impotent rebelliousness as well as of resignation of an unnatural and path-ological type.
		work and love, morality and sexuality for which mankind is forever longing, this unity will remain a dream as long as man does not permit himself the satisfaction of the bio-logical demands of natural (orgastic) sexual gratification.
		Freud learned this from Charcot and, as he developed psychoanalysis, proved that neu-roses were due to sexual repression; he believed that, if the repressed con-flicts where made conscious, the patient would be cured.

	FrontPage magazine.com :: The Sexual Rage Behind Islamic Terror by Jamie Glazov
		The rage that results from sexual abuse is one thing, but when combined with living in a dysfunctional culture of sexual repression and misogyny, where love is reduced to violent domination, it is quite another.
		Even though the society does not see their sexual exploitation as being humiliating, the psychological and emotional scars that result from their subordination, powerlessness and humiliation is a given.
		It is excruciating to imagine the sexual confusion, humiliation, and repression that evolve in the mindsets of males in this culture.

	Objective Moral Values - Page 8 - Literature Network Forums
		Sexual activity outside of a committed marriage creates circumstances that benefit from a committed marriage (children, for example).
		But sexual intimacy convinces us that we have a true "bond" with someone - kind of like the false intimacy created between a therapist and client, a student and a teacher - that intimacy is based on proximity and should not be mistaken for a true relational intimacy.
		Sexual repression of the kind I describe was, in any case, present in greater quantities at the beginning of the 20th century.

	THE CULT OF CHILDHOOD AND THE REPRESSION OF CHILDHOOD SEXUALITY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Even if healthy sexual functioning in marriage was not inhibited by the negative teachings we receive as children, more damage is done by the typical postponement of marriage far into the years of sexual maturity.
		Since mothers are generally responsible for the sexual socialization of their infants, the way the mother reacts to her infant's sexual play is critical to its future development.
		Instead of being badgered about the evil nature of their sexuality and intimidated into an unnatural and unworkable celibacy (or, worse, forced into irresponsible sex), children should be taught how to love, respect and care for others and to enjoy their own sexual urges safely, without any harm coming to them.

	HPS Health - Longevity Guidelines
		Since sexual relations are as fundamental to human life as eating and sleeping, Taoist adepts devoted a lot of time and thought to researching its every aspect and implication for human health and longevity.
		In a society happily free of sexual repression, Taoist physicians took a long and careful look at human sexual behavior, and they candidly recorded their findings in journals and books, couched in the usual florid Taoist terminology.
		By patterning their sexual relations on the models of Heaven and Earth and conforming to the nature of Yin and Yang, men may derive life-giving benefits from the sexual forces, rather than being forever at their mercy.

	The Myths of Memory Repression and Recovery
		Myth: It is a fact that victims of long-term, violent childhood abuse commonly repress the memory of each and every incident from conscious awareness after it occurs so that they have no awareness the rest of the time of having been abused, and then recall the abuse only years or decades later.
		Reality: "No evidence exists for the repression and recovery of verified, severely traumatic events, and their role in symptom formation has yet to be proved.
		Given the prevalence of childhood sexual abuse, even if only a small proportion are repressed and only some of them are subsequently recovered, there should be a significant number of corroborated cases.

		But another thought is that sexual repression, especially in a society where everyone only seems to be having sex, will make people inclined to be perverted.
		So, if one is feeling the pressure of sexual repression they should listen to the words of the prophet (saw) and marry or fast, in order to realease themselves from any perverted thougts or behaviour.
		If Repression is a mechanism to protect oneself from threatening thoughts, by not using this mechanism does not mean one will indulge in perversion, but could very well channel oneself to work, sports or hobby to occupy one's mind, hence less threatening thoughts.
