The term “licentious” is understood as a character trait or personality trait, in particular, by this word is meant a certain lack of restraint in behavior, the concept of discipline, immorality and depravity, a tendency to act on one’s whim, ignoring morality.
Use of the term
In everyday speech, the term is used in combination “sexual licentiousness”, but the meaning of the word is much broader and can mean gluttony, alcoholism, lack of proper upbringing or moral principles, a sense of shame and other unseemly acts. More often than not, “mindlessness” refers to thoughtless sexual relations and bad habits.
Sexual promiscuity
By “sexual licentiousness” is meant the absence, inability or unwillingness to control one’s sexual needs, expressed in a willingness to thoughtlessly engage in sexual contact, not guided by moral issues. Both male and female licentiousness manifests itself in frequent changes in the sexual partner, betrayal and relationships with strangers, often in alcohol or drug intoxication.
Previously, half a century ago, it was a shame to have sexual intercourse before marriage, but now couples often live together before the wedding, or even do not marry at all, but have sexual intercourse almost from the first date.
Against the backdrop of this sad situation, children's licentiousness is growing: at an early age, adolescents begin to have sexual intercourse, and abortion of girls at the age of 14-16 is not so rare.
