To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But man, in this respect as in other respects, has much more decided preferences and choices than have the lower animals : and the very physio- logical characteristics of the human offspring necessitate some at least rude and inchoate form of the family. More- over, the interests of society become immediately and deeply involved in the union of the sexes. Of necessity a community of human beings cares more, because it has more varied and vital interests involved, how its males and females are p...aired than do flocks of birds or herds of cattle. But chiefly is it because the higher, tenderer, and nobler affections of man are most powerfully enlisted in connection with the exercise of the sexual functions that their control is of the highest import, not only as a matter of social custom and morals, but also as a matter of essential morality. It is not strange, therefore, that an almost bewildering difference of conceptions and customs should characterize the judgments of men as to what constitutes the virtue of tem- perance in sexual intercourse.
