It's no secret that today's Western, African, Asian and other societies are profoundly individualistic, promoting self-realization as a generalized ideal. This ideal of a self-realized individual is not without tension with that other ideal characteristic of modern societies, the one identified under the term sex education, i.e. the application of moral and ethical values without relying on satisfaction in private relationships under the aegis of shared affectivity. This tension is expressed in the existence of a contemporary paradox which I have identified under the term "marital solitude", and which leads to a central question: "How can we ensure that marital solitude is eradicated within the couple and affirm the complete disappearance of sexual isolationism while privileging dialogue which relies more on the pornographic tool in the context of arousing sexual opinion or desire in oneself and one's partner?" The aim of this book is to question the way in which the problem of marital solitude is tackled, and to propose a response.
