Answer to Question 1

The student should indicate that Reiss's four standards are the double standard, permissiveness with affection, permissiveness without affection, and abstinence. The more traditional double standard allows men more freedom in their sexual activities. Women, however, are expected to remain more chaste. Permissiveness with affection has become accepted today. It allows premarital sex for both men and women as long as they are in committed relationships. Less acceptable is permissiveness without affection, especially for women. This standard allows for casual sex. Abstinence teaches avoidance of sex totally. It is not the most practiced standard.

Answer to Question 2

True
