The article presents information about a public debate on sex related issues and faithfulness in marriage in the U.S. after the publication of "Sex in America: A Definitive Survey," Robert T. Michael, John H. Gagnon and Edward O. Laumann. The survey disclosed that 75 percent of husbands and a whopping 86 percent of wives do not stray. And it isn't 10 percent of Americans who are gay, it's 10 percent of New Yorkers. This study would be used to legitimize homosexuality, pedophilia, anal and oral sex, sex education, teenage pregnancy and all down the line.
