Most products people in the industrialized nations use today are turned out swiftly by the process of mass

production, by people (and sometimes, robots) working on assembly lines using powerdriven machines.. The Industrial Revolution is the name given the movement in which machines changed people's way of life as well as their methods of manufacture. The most important of the changes that brought about the Industrial Revolution were (1) the invention of machines to do the work of hand tools; (2) the use of steam, and later of other kinds of power, in place of the muscles of human beings and of animals; and (3) the adoption of the factory system. It is almost impossible to imagine what the world would be like if the effects of the Industrial Revolution were swept away. There will be no electronic devices, machineries, automobiles and gadgets today might not emerged. The children of the poor would have little or no schooling and would work from dawn to dark on the farm or in the home. Before machines these, work by children and adults was needed in order to provide enough food, clothing, and shelter for all.

http://history-world.org/Industrial%20Intro.htm During the Industrial Revolution, the world was banging with new political theories about life, freedom, and government. The three largest political theories during the industrial revolution were liberalism, utilitarianism, and socialism. Liberalism influenced Europe in the 1800s and liberals believed in individual liberty and accepted ideas of the Enlightenment and reforms of the French Revolution. They believed in freedom of conscience, thought and speech, to pursue your own economic interests through free trade and competition. Liberalism is the belief of a representative, constitutional government but did not support democracy. After liberalism, people began to accept utilitarianism, where institutions and laws should be judged by usefulness. Utilitarianism was basically the study of law based on simple rules, obtained by empirical inquiry into human nature and the motivation of human behavior. Much of the theories were based upon empirical investigation, hedonism (subjective pursuit of anything bringing any kind of pleasure). The philosophy of Utilitarianism was based on the principle of utility, or the ability of an action to please individuals and its ability to please as many individuals as possible (achieving "the greatest good for the greatest number"). It was established that human behavior is limited to the extent of avoiding as much "pain" and seeking as much "pleasure" as possible by way of action Socialism was then adopted after utilitarianism. The early "socialism" was also called "utopian socialism," because it tried to bring forth a government involved in "social" interests which was altruistic and optimistic in nature. This line of thinking was primarily brought on by the French industrial revolution, which had created several new problems, and was essentially a creationistic response to it.
The Industrial Revolution led people to believe in many different theories about life, freedom, and government that they believed would make the world a better place. http://www.echeat.com/essay.php?t=29383

http://www.thesocialistparty.org/spo/archive/history/socialism/utilitarianism.html I think out of the three theories of life, utilitarianism was the most influential cause of the sexual perversion in industrial revolution, because people of this time tends to have personal satisfaction to the extent of maximizing their happiness. And that leads to seeking sexual pleasure. People believed to it to be the most satisfactory act than other forms of pleasure. John Stuart Mill says, The utilitarian doctrine is that happiness is desirable, and the only thing desirable, as an end; all other things being only desirable as means to that end. Certainly happiness is something that people in fact strive for. He wants to say that happiness is also the normative end that is, not only the thing people do in fact strive for, but the thing they ought to strive for. Happiness is the ultimate end (in the sense of goal or purpose), then it should serve as the basis for morality. http://instruct.westvalley.edu/lafave/util.htm So people of the era of industrial revolution were ought to strive for their happiness. It is what only matters. The fact that their lives were becoming mobile, because of the industrialization, they will have less time to work and have more time to suite themselves in personal pleasure. Therefore, industrial revolution greatly affected the sexual perversion in Europe especially in Victorian period. As of the moment, Europeans are considered sexual addicts and known to a habit of sexual intercourse as a form of self-satisfaction.
