Prejudices related to the birth of girl child have long existed in the Indian society. Since ages voices have been raised against the issue, trying to curb the ill practices of killing the girl child soon after birth or in the womb of the mother itself yet nothing good has come out of it. Killing of the girl child has found its easy course in the womb- female foeticide. Despite the fact that we have entered the 21st century yet censes still show the declining ratio of the girl child. Women have progressed in every sector, be it managing home or society, yet the birth of a girl is never celebrated. The women still have to fight for respect at each step, has to struggle for its survival. The present study aims to study the anxiety levels of married youth in order to understand the thinking behind the committing of the heinous crime of female foeticide. The study makes some questions ring into our mind again and again seeking for a solution. Why does the sound of the first baby has to be that of a boy, why not a girl. Why is a family considered complete only with the birth of a boy? Why is a boy considered a symbol of status and a girl just another financial burden? A deeper thought has to be given to find out the reason why despite so many government policies and facilities we still have not been able to change our thinking and consider women as 'Human'.- Enhancing Students' Life through Stress Reduction Exercises in Yoga

Sexuality in each condition and society has remained as the much investigated topic yet people hardly ever able to fmd a suitable defining answer for them. Every society fashions the development and expressions of sexuality, tailored to fit the social, political and economic conditions of its own existence. Although sexuality itself has both components, it is usually thought of primarily as a physical matter. For this reason, a society that regards sexual desires as dangerous or wrong is one that reveals its basic mistrust of the physical side ofhuman nature. Sexuality for them, although is a desired thing for procreation but not for the individual desire of union with the partner. Sexuality especially in Indian context has been a subject of curiosity yet talked off in hushed tones, believing that marriage is the ultimate point to understand sexuality which leaves two souls to unite emotionally, physically and sexually. There is a tremendous need for sex education during the period, when the pre-adolescents are fmally able to understand the material and integrate it at both an emotional and rational level which will lead them to becoming sexually responsible adults.Keywords
