Cultural Attitudes

Posted by Lotus on May 17, 2008

I’m 100% caucasian and was raised in very American communities with very little diversity. I’ve traveled a little, but sex has never been a topic of discussion with the people I meet in other countries. Please enlighten me! Do LDS members raised in other non-American cultures have different attitudes toward sex than those raised in American culture? Are Mia Maid chastity lessons the same in France and Brazil and Jamaica as they are in Provo? I’m very curious if cultures that have more open (and less Victorian, hat tip to Joseph) have significantly different views, attitudes, and approaches toward sex within the LDS context.
