Emociones que influyen en las conductas sexuales no comunes en adolescentes y jóvenes

Abstract

Young people continue to live in a hypersexualized society, in addition, myths, taboos, misinformation, family factors and friends cause adolescents to obtain distorted information about sexuality, which is why they resort to sexual content as a source of learning. Studies have shown that most young people do not have a good emotional development, which significantly influences their decision making, leading them to practice inappropriate and risky sexual behaviors. The present essay aims to analyze which emotional factors influence uncommon sexual behaviors in adolescents and young people. Therefore, the work is supported by a descriptive bibliographic study through updated scientific articles, with the purpose of obtaining information about emotional aspects and unusual sexual behaviors in young people. In addition, it is mentioned that due to this problem there is a high risk of sexually transmitted infections, unplanned pregnancies and abortions that damage the individual's sexual life. As a result of the literature review, it was determined that, due to inadequate emotional and sexual education, young people develop emotional problems such as shame, fear, guilt, sadness, fears, anxiety and depression, so to alleviate these emotions they engage in inappropriate sexual behaviors. Despite the fact that this is currently a relevant problem, research has focused on sexual problems associated with social and cultural factors, leaving aside the emotional aspects and unusual sexual practices that cause a deterioration in the life of the adolescent.
