Deontological Morality

Sexual orientation is a topic that is very debatable and contains a lot of information. The information I have learned since beginning this research paper has been memorable and has taught me alot. The sociology of sexual orientation teaches us a lot without us being aware about it. Looking at someone else’s puzzle piece and incorporating it into one’s own life is the mission of sociology. Dealing with sexual orientation, it teaches us not to discriminate against someone because they are different than what we are accustomed to and learn to accept others who are different. If you look at it from a broader perspective everyone, is different to someone else and once the world understands this, it will be a much more safer and positive place to

“Deontology is a moral theory that emphasizes one’s duty to do a particular action just because the action, itself, is inherently right and not through any other sorts of calculations – such as the consequences of the action” (Boylan, 2009, p. 171). In many aspects deontology is contrasted with utilitarianism. Deontology is based upon principle and does not calculate the consequences (Boylan, 2009, p. 171). Deontology attracts those seeking a stronger moral attraction because it refers to commanding rather than commending and commanding is a stronger structure (Boylan, 2009, p. 172). The

For many years, Americans have held certain opinions concerning gender, sex, women, and sexual orientation. A definition of both gender and sex will be provided. The roles of women throughout American history will be discussed. When people think about masculinity and femininity, they have certain preconceived ideas. How these ideas contribute to the understanding gender, sex, and sexual orientation will be examined. Finally, the status of GLBT individuals will be explored. An increased understanding will be gained concerning these issues.

Deontological ethics has as its basic thrust, the concept of a duty to do what is right. For one’s actions to be in accordance with DE, those actions must be realized out of a “notion of right (that) is not derived from a prior notion of good”, as explained by Illies (Illies, 2011, p. 107). A

Although we may find it simpler to think our sexual behavior, attractions, fantasies, and identities are all consistent and aligned, the reality of our world is that they are not consistent for many people.

On the off chance that society keeps on empowerring men and typify ladies, our way of life and society will fall flat. The generalizations should be separated, and people ought not be taken a gander at in light of the average standards, everybody is diverse and qualified for fairness. "Correspondence assumes an imperative part in forming our sexual orientation characters and through communications with others we can instruct ourselves on how society characterizes our parts" (Signorelli, 2000).

In this paper, I will use a single example to compare deontology and utilitarianism. I will start off by providing a brief description of each ethical framework and then apply each of these ethical frameworks to an example in which a choice must be made. Through these comparisons, I will find and discuss their perspective strengths and weaknesses.

In order to make an artificial intelligence (A.I) program the most human, it must include deontology in its framework, because the robot would have a clear sense of right and wrong, its actions would have both positive and negative effects, and it would emphasize its value as a human being. Deontology based ethics are “concerned with what people do, not with the consequences of their actions” (BBC Deontology). Because the A.I would have a strict moral code, it would not stall in the limbo of “it depends”. Deontology provides certainty, so the A.I would always know what is a morally right action and what is not. This could yield positive and negative effects because some people would agree with the A.I’s reasoning when it came to making a decision,

Deontological moral theory is a Non-Consequentialist moral theory. While consequentialists believe the ends always justify the means, deontologists assert that the rightness of an action is not simply dependent on maximizing the good, if that action goes against what is considered moral. It is the inherent nature of the act alone that determines its ethical standing. For example, imagine a situation where there are four critical condition patients in a hospital who each need a different organ in order to survive. Then, a healthy man comes to the doctor's office for a routine check-up. According to consequentialism, not deontology, the doctor should and must sacrifice that one man in order to save for others. Thus, maximizing the good.

“How we think about sexuality is conditioned and inhibited by a complicated history and, to make our problems worse, that history is in the power of those who have necessarily been antagonistic to women for a very long time. Males generally have been economically and socially superior to women since they became the primary producers and possessors of private property.” (Murphy Robinson, 1984: 251)

The study of ethical models is a good way to gain insights into ethical thinking and understand systematic approaches to dealing with ethical issues (Johnson, 2016). This paper will examine and discuss one particular ethical perspective, deontology. German philosopher Immanual Kant (1724-1804) championed the model. This paper will outline the details of deontology ethical model. An examination of the positive and negative implications the application of this model may have in the business environment will be included. Finally a personal perspective will be discussed including how implementing the perspective could assist or hamper a management approach.

The long debated question of the importance of men and women and their roles has raged on for years. Should men and women be treated equally, that truly is the question that seems to have more answers than resolution. Applying the question to Deontology and the work of Immanuel Kant, the answer would be all people regardless of gender should be treated equally. However, these theories do not take into account the actions of the male or female in question. The question still remains, should men and women be treated equally or should it be based on the situation, all accounts will be taken into further consideration.

Before reading this week’s readings, I understood heteronormativity as the idea that being heterosexual is normal and how many believe that is the only way to live even if you are not heterosexual. I realized how sexuality is much more complicated than I originally thought. Sexuality is not just one-dimensional but there are so many parts to it that people are not aware of.

All of these communications assume that the speakers and listeners share a definition of sex that is clear, consistent across situations, and unbiased by personal motives. In fact, there is limited research evaluating individuals ' definitions of sex, and the research that does exist seems based on implicit assumptions that may be problematic in some ways.
