One third of the women could accept oral intercourse, while two thirds of the men couldn’t accept oral intercourse. The frequency of sexual intercourse per month is less than 10 times in 72.5% women and 77.7% men. 72.9% men and 54.9% women would like to frequently change the position in sexual intercourse.

In the novel the author calls for a complete emancipation of sex between man and woman, which is the ideal balance of human being. Systematically and comprehensively, my essay will analyze the characters' marriages, including Connie's parents, her sister, Clifford and Connie, Mellors and his wife, and the ideal couple — Mellors and Connie. Through them, the essay will explore D.H. Lawrence's view of marriage and finally judge the view.展开更多
