Research shows, women are apparently more sexually liberated than ever before - but most women still believe one-night stands are immoral. Forty years after the dawn of women's lib, British females judge friends and acquaintances who indulge in casual sex as being 'needy' and 'deviant'.
The study of women's attitudes towards sex revealed that women of all ages believe that sex outside marriage or a committed relationship is wrong. Those who have one-night stands do so out of desperation or drunkenness.
The findings, by psychologists from Sheffield University, fly in the face of image of the carefree, liberated 21st century woman portrayed in programmes such as Sex And The City.
The research follows an Amnesty International survey which found that many people believe that rape victim who has had lots of sexual partners is at least partly responsible for her predicament.
Researcher Dr Sharon Hinchliff asked 46 women aged 20 to 83 about their views on sex.
Ninety per cent thought casual sex was wrong and only 10 per cent admitted having a one night stand.
Women of all ages were judgmental of those who sleep around, with some of the younger women being harsher than the pensioners.
The women also had double-standards, with some of those who had had one night stands in the past saying it was wrong for others to do so.
One interviewee, a 60-year-old woman from Sheffield, said: "They always seem to be out to try to get some kind of sexual gratification and I don't believe it. I don't think they can really.
Dr Hinchliff, who found the women's attitudes 'shocking', said: "It doesn't fit in with the image we have got of today's independent women who can go out and have sexual freedom without the ties of a relationship.
"It seems much easier for men. The attitude is that it is a bit of bravado for men to sleep around, have many sexual partners and casual sex.
"Women are meant to have had sexual freedom from the Sixties. Now it seems we must question the degree of sexual freedom we have got."
