The postmodern era is widely acknowledged as the age of liberalization. Liberalization in every aspect of human life, starting from economic to political, from social to psychological has received the highest importance.

Sexuality or the idea of sexuality is one such aspect, where maintaining the gap between theory and practice is encouraged, consciously or unconsciously, starting from common societal level to intellectual plain. Sexuality is essentially an idea that has been formed by the society. Notion of the Western World about sexuality is based on the ‘the Christian equation of sexuality with sin, which must be redeemed through making babies.’ (Hubbard, 2003, p.65)

Sexual orientation must have only a single form and people are strictly discouraged by the society from being involved in any other form of sexual orientation or pleasure other than heterosexuality. A child is taught in a completely different way about sex and sexuality by his/her parents or people around him. But the idea developed by him/her about sex and sexuality is completely in contradiction with the idea of sexuality that he develops in his mind.
