Latina mother sex

Description:Because this group is also generally opposed to birth control, this could put them at a higher risk for STDs. Acculturation Acculturation is the process by which a group integrates the cultural practices of another group into their own. Machismo and marianismo, while considered outdated ideas by many, still seem to have a strong influence on Latino ideas about sexuality. It seems plausible that acculturated teens would be more likely to engage in sexual activity and more likely to use birth control than their less assimilated peers, but more rigorous studies must be done to come to a definitive conclusion. A few studies have found evidence that higher levels of acculturation are correlated with higher rates of teen pregnancy, but that acculturated teens expect to have fewer children in their lifetime. In this case, it refers to the process through which Latino immigrants adopt American culture into their own, similar to assimilation.
