ABSTRACT
The once-dominant pattern of segregation of pupils by gender, particularly in early adolescence, inevitably produced a tendency to same-sex eroticization, which perhaps reached its height in the English public school tradition. In the-now typical-coeducational schools, the emergence of sexual feelings during the school years has stimulated interest in sex education, though such programs remain controversial in some quarters, and the attention accorded homosexual behavior within them is slight. In the late 1960s gay student organizations emerged on North American college campuses and have since spread elsewhere, chiefly in the English-speaking world. On the opinions of college students in general regarding sexual behavior, see I.J.
