The Sexually Promiscuous Male
Benjamin Morse
THE DIMENSIONS OF MALE PROMISCUITY
It is a deeply significant comment on our cultural mores that our
attitudes toward male and female promiscuity vary as greatly as
they do. A woman who behaves promiscuously is regarded as a
person of low character. Male promiscuity draws a more tolerant
response from the world at large.
What is not commonly realized is that male promiscuity, like any
deviation from the sexual norm, is generally a symptom of some
psychic or environmental failing. Male promiscuity is almost
invariably the mani- festation of a neurotic or psychotic
condition.
How, then, are we to understand this wide- spread phenomenon?
What precisely con- stitutes promiscuous conduct? This book—
through a careful study of case histories se- lected from
Dr. Morse’s files—analyzes the dimensions of male promiscuity in
order to give you an understanding of the problem and a valid
frame of reference with which to approach this area of human
behavior.
