It is true that emotions are supressed but that does not mean that sensual activities do not take place...they are just more discrete. Malaysian men often go to Thailand to break out of the mould and local girls, once assured of discretion are beautiful sensual women....and very rewarding. You must understand the cullture and then the benefits flo. I suspect that most responses are based on a short tourist visit to Malaysia.

As countries move away from agricultural societies and into more consumer-driven cultures (meaning, higher GDP), focus shifts away from satisfying needs to satisfying desires. Wants are fundamental in a capitalist society -- we wouldn't be motivated to buy without people telling us constantly to satisfy our wants. So sexual pleasure naturally becomes more acceptable, and marriage less important. I think that the correlation might be in the opposite direction than what you indicate.

Some of my friends here think that western society is on the brink of downfall similar to the Roman Empire or the end of the renaissance period. Not quite sure that I agree but I can see where they're coming from in terms of historical cycles. I think that’s about right, give or take a few hundred cultural historical differences!

Japan is one of the richest countries in Asia, but I think they still have a lot of cultural strappings. Generally though, your theory appears plausible. “It’s probably no accident that well-to-do countries are often made up of more open societies.”
