Abstract: This article analyzes the social realities that Austrian and German heterosexual men, all in their reproductive age, confronted in the aftermath of World War II; the kind of sexual and gendered configurations produced under Nazism and during the postwar period; and the ways in which these social and emotional realities were publically and privately dealt with after the war It draws on reports in, and letters-to-the-editor of, the journal Liebe und Ehe from 1949 to 1951, as well as on a sample of fourteen private letters written by an Austrian policeman in 1951 about his love relationship with a nurse Such early postwar narratives not only point at issues and conflicts between the sexes, but also suggest the rehabilitation of traditional gender roles in West Germany and Austria Men struggled to conform to new guidelines of heterosexual domesticity, a development that hints not only at traumatic war experiences, but also at the ideological residuals of Nazism

Abstract: Marriage is considered as compulsive ritual by all societies, though it has been explained differently by different cultural groups. In Nepal the prevalence of love marriage varies between communities, regions, castes and ethnic groups, but most of the time they are early before the legal age of marriage. In this context, this paper explores the views from school officials regarding the reasons of early marriage, where they have highlighted the cultural practices, social media, lack of transformative sexuality education from schools, gap in the contents of school curriculum regarding sexual and reproductive health. For the purpose of data collection teachers from Baira Mahdev School were purposively selected and in-depth interviews were conducted for exploring their views. The collected data were analyzed on thematic basis and relevant themes were generated.Journal of Health Promotion Vol.6 2008, p.80-85
