Sexual intercourse

to enact their desires upon. In a study conducted using 900 women chosen at random, one in four of the women had been raped. (D.E.H.) Each year in the United States alone there is an average of 288,820 victims age 12 or older of reported rape and sexual assault. (Department of Justice) Keep in mind that those are just the cases that are reported; many people choose to not report for many different reasons, and often times people may not even realize they were assaulted at all because…

Suarez, Newman, and Reed (2008) have defined positionality as “our internal and external status’ as being along two axes and how they interact or intersect defines our position and power in society and our practice with clients.” Their article goes on to look at how Suarez one of the co-authors viewed and deconstructed her positionality about that of her client’s. She reflected on her positionality in this way so that she would not make false assumptions about her clients by viewing them with…

It is almost neglectful to not start teaching boundaries as soon as a child is younger. I believe a program should be created and offered to parents of school aged children to better understand and become knowledgeable about sexual assault who is at risk and how a conversation with a child could set a tone moving forward. This program should focus on individual boundaries, and talk about victimization. While I recognize this would be expensive, and time consuming, and not every…

In this presentation, Ryan Anderson tries to defend the traditional view of two sexes marriage by criticizing the philosophical problems and sociological consequences of the same sex marriage. In this paper, I will first evaluate the strength and weakness of his presentation, and then will analyze its philosophical foundation from the perspective of reformed theology. I believe that the two sexes marriage cannot be efficiently defensed simply by appealing to the natural law tradition and its…

‘Gender’ describes the cultural, mental and social factors that form the notion of male and female characteristics (Nwanna, 2010, p. 91). This differs from ‘sexuality’ which encompasses the beliefs, thoughts and practices involved in expressing one’s sexual experience, and is influenced by numerous external influencers (World Health Organisation, 2016, para. 5). To address the challenges of these social determinants, aspects of social progression such as women’s health initiatives and…

For the greater part of the twentieth century, human sexuality was largely ignored as it was a focus of social research and reflection. Naturalist sexologists like Havelock Ellis recorded histories of reactions to sexuality but did little to explain why and how sexuality shaped human societies. On the other hand, sexologists who embraced the meta-theoretical approach like Ken Plummer fell short when it came to empirical evidence, because they relied too heavily on their theoretical constructs…

developing rationality, judgment and knowledge (primarily for men), and on the other108 Rousseau, Kant and Wollstonecraft. The Educations of Women hand in the sense of learning the sexual game of life (primarily for women). The second aspect of Wollstonecraft's response to Rousseau which I would like to say something about is a stylistic feature of her reaction, which I shall call "repetition", Of course, Rousseau's own views on women are repetitious. Even though cultural settings change, there…

boldest and the least bashful from all other sisters’ attempts. Her invincible nature, an unrestrained harlotry may be portrayed by her brasserie draped on Cecilia’s crucifix in their room. This artifact spotted by Peter Sissen becomes a symbol of Lux’s sexual desires overshadowing cultural norms that urge girls to maintain virginal and immaculate. In Catholicism, the crucifix is connected with sacrifice, making the “crucified” brasserie a symbol of Lux’s sexuality being given up just as…

it gained wider recognition owing to Sigmund Freud’s work. In his work Freud described narcissism as a sexual perversion, and defined it as “the attitude of a person who treats his own body in the way in which the body of the sexual object is ordinarily treated – who looks at it, strokes it, fondles it till he obtains complete satisfaction from these activities.” (Freud, 1914, p.73) Narcissism is defined by the American Psychiatric Association (2013) as a personality disorder, which includes “a…
