Outwardly, most Americans maintain the strait-laced middle-class look that belies the social ferment behind closed doors. There is the secret use of drugs, fed by the marijuana syndrome. There is the river of alcohol flooding from door to door under the euphemism of social drinking. Then, of course, them is the advent of sexual fantasies […]

Many people feel an overwhelming attraction to other members of their own family. When suppressed, this attraction often leads to agonizing emotional troubles.

Immoral people capitalizing on the innocence of others to attain their goals — a story as old as man. The Bible, history books, law books — all contain examples. And when the innocent victim is young, the story is so much the sadder. The women in this book are the victims of immoral people. They […]

Most of us load two lives — real and fantasy. The house imagines herself leading a life of luxury, surrounded by jewels and furs. The businessman imagines himself away from the rat race, painting or fishing by a quiet lake. The school boy dreams of becoming a famous athlete. And then there are sexual fantasies […]

Every society is marked by an adolescent stage. A growing up period. A time when each young member feels more daring and modern than the adults ruling the establishment the young person rebels against.
