A traditional feature in these societies is the huge amount of social inequality, which translates directly into social differences in sexual experience, especially among women. Despite the decline in fertility, an early start of unions and of reproductive experience remains typical of groups with lower education. Another aspect is the diversity of national patterns and gender systems, very far from the image of cultural homogeneity generally associated with this region. Data show a low prevalence of homosexuality\/bisexuality, which can be a result of underreporting. The paper eventually stresses the necessity of carrying out more sexual behavior surveys of the general population in the region&rdquo;<\/I>.<BR>  <P><a href=\"http:\/\/journals.lww.com\/jaids\/Fulltext\/2009\/05011\/A_Life_Course_Approach_to_Patterns_and_Trends_in.2.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to read<\/A><\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The article <EM>&ldquo;A Life Course Approach to Patterns and Trends in Modern Latin American Sexual Behavior&rdquo;<\/EM>, written by researchers Michel Bozon (photo), Cecilia Gayet and Jaime Barrientos, explores trends in sexual behavior in Latin America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-195","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.1.1 -
