The purpose of this study is to search for a tentative approach to sexuality in family studies. In spite of important relationships between family and sexuality in many respects, sexuality researches in family studies are not systemic and frequently mentioned for many reasons. From the review of studies about sexuality, some of the ways sexuality researches in family studies can be uniquely developed are suggested. First, with the possibility of several theoretical approaches to sexuality in family studies. Second, with the need to use qualitative research method in sexuality researches. Especially, the need to regard human sexuality as a social construct in everyday life is emphasized and the very usefulness of qualitative research method is suggested.
