Abstract
Three samples of lower class Negro women were compared. One overall finding was a higher positive view toward marriage among the women in England than for those in the other two countries. The English women were more apt to define the sexual aspects of marriage within an egalitarian view of marriage. Basically the view of the Negro woman in the English sample was that men and women should have equal rights sexually and those rights should be met within marriage. The American and Trinidad Negro respondents were much less apt to see the sexual expression of husbands and wives restricted entirely to the marriage relationship.Keywords
