EN

For the entire “lengthy” 19th century “procreation” was seen as the only possible motivation for sexual intercourse, although there was a shift of emphasis in the last decades of the 19th century against a background of the attempts to legitimise prostitution and the fight against the spread of sexual diseases. A greater openness with regard to the issues of sexuality was, at the same time, one of the manifestations of the secularization of society. The reflection of these changes, which should not be overestimated, manifested itself in both serious academic and popular journalism.
