The sexual revolution produced cultural convulsions that were unparalleled in the 20th century.

Image
It's important for a couple to talk about their sexual preferences. On the other hand, the aura of the mysterious should be preserved.

Image
The sexual revolution of the 1960s was mostly a movement of young people. I felt that the so-called free relationships were overrated.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
With an intelligent couple, it ought to be possible for the husband or wife to look for satisfaction outside the relationship - while always taking the partner into consideration, meaning acting openly but still discreetly.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
I'm reminded of a female patient who was particularly aroused by the shape of her husband's shoulder. And this hint of perversion should ideally remain a secret for both partners.

Sexual desire declines after four to seven years. That's been proven.

Internet sexuality shows that we're becoming more and more self-involved. I'm talking about self-sex.

Image
Fantasies have to remain dirty. Cleanliness, scrupulousness and rationality are poison for eroticism.

Image
Some 95 percent of all sexual contact still occurs in permanent relationships. That's an impressive number.

Just go to an auto show, and you'll see all the signs of sexual arousal in the men: shiny eyes, tremors, sex flush. An acute example of the need for professional sex research.

Image
There are young men who want thrills but no longer value sex, so they do completely different things, including aggressive things.

Image
I will always be referred to as a theorist, but I was only a fellow traveller with a degree.

The social problem is that we haven't come up with any alternative models. Our culture hasn't developed an ars erotica. Think, for example, of conditions in India or in Japanese culture and of how the erotic has been cultivated there. They're not as clinical and rabbit-like as we are.

There are pedosexuals who, even if the court forces them to go into treatment, do not pursue it or cannot pursue it.

Image
We are all potential murderers, and we are all potential rapists and abusers.

Perhaps the couple got married at 25 and now they're 45 and this is an option. And if a couple is still together, or perhaps finds its way back together, I like to say that it's forever. They belong together, it's a good fit, it's the right pairing. It almost gives me goose bumps.

Key feature of sexual revolution is the large-scale publication and commercialization of details that were once secret. Sexuality has been trivialized. The interesting thing about this is that exaggerated portrayals apparently destroy desire more effectively than any repression.

Image
There will be other forms in addition to our classic marriage. One is already looming on the horizon: polyamory, or having more than one intimate partner.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
Aura of the mysterious is a minor perversion that a couple shares. A fetish that one of the two partners finds arousing, or a particular sexual scenario. Fantasies have to remain dirty. Cleanliness, scrupulousness and rationality are poison for eroticism.

Most young people seem to be behaving very intelligently: They look at things once in a while, but then they find it so idiotic and uncool that they just look away again. That is, provided they're not growing up in a family in which a drunk father is already watching pornos in the morning.
