FACTORS THAT AFFECT
ONE’S ATTITUDES AND
PRACTICES RELATED TO
SEXUALITY
1. FAMILY
• Family values oftentimes determine your own values. It is the center of information
about sexual learning that starts from birth and continues throughout life. The
learning of appropriate and basic practices of sexuality begin early in life. It is
highly influenced by the environment in the home and the values and the behavior of
parents. “Family' is a single word, with many different meanings. People have many
ways of defining a family and what being a part of a family means to them. Families
differ in terms of economic, cultural, social, and many other facets, but what every
family has in common is that the people who call it a family are making clear that
those people are important in some way to the person calling them his family
2. CULTURE
• Filipinos living in different regions have diverse cultures and beliefs.
Your cultural background can affect your values regarding sexuality,
along with the norms and standards set by society. Our customs and
traditions and religious aspect has also a great impact on the different
practices we possess towards sexuality as a man or a woman.
• Examples: different beliefs when it comes to dressing up, traditions on marriages
just like “pamamanhikan” or giving dowry, religious standards of morality –
modesty for women and manliness for men
3. PEERS
• Like your family, your friends can also have a significant
impact on your views on human sexuality. Your peers may play
an important role in socialization in which you adopt attitudes
and behaviors towards same sex or opposite sex and having
relationships. You also ask opinion from your peers and
sometimes they are part of your decision making.
• Examples: peer pressure, influence, girls talk or boys talk
4. MEDIA
• The media plays a significant role in our lives as we regularly
watch televisions, listen to radio, search the internet, read
newspapers and magazines.
• Examples: source of information, printed magazines,
pornography, films
5. SOCIO- ECONOMIC STATUS.
• It is the quality of life or the standard of living of a family that
can be measured as a combination of education, income, and
occupation. The role of the following aspects of socio
economic status such as education, income, and occupation,
can affect the health status of the family especially on
reproductive health issues.
• Examples: Unwanted pregnancy, adolescent birth rates, infant
mortality.
6. SCHOOL AND CHURCH

• The church and the school play a vital role in helping


parents influence their adolescents’ understanding about
sexuality and helping them make responsible and
healthy sexual choice now and in the future. Many
religious traditions and schools promote a sexual ethic
that is summarized as chastity in singleness and fidelity
in marriage.
• Create 5 simple symbols that represent the factors
that affect one’s behavior towards sexuality –
family, culture, peers, media, and socioeconomic
status. Then write a short description why you did
choose that kind of symbol. Be creative and put it
on a short bond paper.
