"Which statement accurately explains the shift in society’s views toward sex in the nineteenth century (e.g., the idea that masturbation could lead to blindness or that oral sex could cause cancer)?"

Respuesta :

Answer:

Religious presumptions replaced by medical ones

Explanation:

During the nineteenth century, there was a shift in the doctors' view of sexuality with that of Church. Traditionally, religion regarded any type of sexual behavior except reproduction, would do harm. There was a belief that masturbation leads to blindness, heart diseases, and oral sex could cause cancer. However, believes started to change in the following centuries where pre-marital sex is considered pleasurable and desirable. Tolerant attitudes towards sexual practices become more permissible, which could be seen in advertisements, plays, and movies.
