7. Family. It is a factor that
oftentimes determines your
family values. Family,
especially the parents are
usually the first mentors of
your sexual identity. They
teach you about love,
kindness, and humility. Family
relationships lay the
foundation of your personality,
life options, and total behavior.

8. Culture. Cultural background can
affect your values regarding
sexuality. Sexual identities and
orientations, the contents of
sexual behavior, and the social
consequences of these
behaviors vary largely across
cultural contexts.

9. Peers. Peers are the one of
important sources of knowledge
about sexuality, but they are not
the most effective and efficient
sources. As an adolescent, you
may begin to spend more time
with peers – friends, and
classmates in your age group. As
a result, their values and beliefs
may influence you.

10. Media. Media plays a big role in
shaping our sexuality because of
how they portray figures of
females and males in music
videos, magazines, commercials,
television, and many more. They
create exaggerated standards that
influence how you think about
yourself.
