Paper Summary:

This paper examines the basic nature of sexuality in the world throughout societies with special attention to the modern world. It provides a description and psychoanalysis of sexual preferences, with proper interpretation of those preferences and behaviors.

From the Paper:

"In modern Western democracies, marriage is basically assumed to be founded on the cherished concept of romantic love. Furthermore, persons in modern, industrialized nations strongly believe that the choice of a mate should be left to the individual. It comes as a shock to many people in these Western nations, then, when they discover that this revered concept of romantic love is almost wholly unknown in most cultures and is considered laughable or self-indulgent in many other societies (Robertson, p. 251). In most traditional or developing societies, marriage is viewed upon as being a pragmatic economic arrangement or a matter of family alliances (Robertson, p. 251). Love has little, if anything, to do with it. "

I am Calcutta University topper of my year and my papers always yielded A+. I had been a topper all my life including school and major too. I find no reason why my papers would not find the same result for others using my papers.
