Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Victorian Americans believed in the idea of female sexual passivity, which meant that women were expected to be sexually submissive and not assertive. This belief was reinforced by the medical community, which viewed women's sexuality as solely intended for reproduction and deemed female sexual desire as pathological or nonexistent. Men, on the other hand, were expected to have a high sex drive and were often evaluated in terms of their virility. Same-sex relationships were not accepted during this time and considered immoral. Therefore, options A and B can be eliminated, and option C is not an accurate representation of Victorian Americans' views on sexuality.
