Emotional Infidelity And Gender Analysis

In the article “Two Ways a Women Can Get Hurt,” by Jean Kilbourne she writes about how women in our society are depicted as a sex other than a human. According to Jean, it’s the fact of showing women as objects in the media, which generates most of the violence or mistreatment women experience in our current society. Kilbourne later mentions recognizes that the role given to men and women in advertisement is such a representation of what is a norm “the popular culture idealizes a template for relationships between men and women that is a recipe for disaster: a template that view sex as more important than anything else, that ridicules men who are in control of their women”. Proving that Jean believes that if women are abused today, its only

World War One posters were everywhere. Each one was used for a purpose, either for political reasons or to promote something, better known as propaganda. These posters could be biased or misleading, but not all were. “Pledge to Save the Food” and “Save the Wheat for our Soldiers” are two posters published by the United States Food Administration. Both made it clear, this was the right thing to do for our soldiers, to be patriotic.

The two most important factors responsible for fueling the movement toward drug regulations in the 20th century were that patent medicines were abused and the associated drug use with minority groups (Levinthal, 2012). With little or no restrictions on drugs by any government agency, patent medicines had a broad definition and were distributed in various ways. Interestingly, the medicines were a far cry from today's medicines as there were no restrictions that required all of the ingredients to be listed on the container the medicine was distributed in. Furthermore, a popular trait was the traveling medicine show that included a "pitch man", whose responsibility was sale his patent medicines (Levinthal, 2012). As the traveling medicine shows became more popular and more drugs were sold, the number of drug-dependent Americans grew and resulted in the establishment of the Pure Drug and Trade Act of 1906, of which made it a requirement to list ingredients on all medicines distributed (McBride, VanderWaal, & Terrry-McElrath, 2002).

Is prejudice actually a thing of the past? Are African-Americans still treated differently from whites? As time goes on, people like to think that with time comes change. In some cases it does, concerning change in economy, surroundings, Presidents and so forth. However, the way blacks are treated is surely not one of them.

The number of affairs was chosen to be the dependent variable. The alternative option to this choice is using a binary independent variable, “if women had at least one affair”. Number of affairs is preferred because, firstly, it is a more comprehensive measure of both genders whereas “if women had at least one affair” accounts for female only; and secondly, of all the responses received, only 31.5% of the participants have engaged in an extramarital affair. By using number of affairs, more information can be reviewed with reduced sample size.

It’s a compelling time we live in where “hooking up” has become increasingly socially acceptable and typical, especially with young adults throughout many college campuses across North America. The article published online by the American Psychological Association, titled Sexual Hook-Up and written by Justin Garcia, contemplates the literature on uncommitted sexual behavior and analyzes the research on the psychological consequences. Garcia takes various studies from the previous 10 years and draws up intriguing conclusions concerning how gender discrepancies, remorse, and physical and mental health exemplify the hookup culture. Garcia, while presenting facts and studies, develops a thorough and neutral perspective on the advantages and disadvantages of a typical one-night stand.

Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) is used to reports sexual behavior and functioning, psychological functioning and personality variables, and substance and its relation to the victim. MANOVA was used to compared and divide victimization group into rape, sexual coercion, and nonvictimization. Finding suggested that rape and sexual coercion victims reported higher levels od sexual concern and distress, as well as sexual shame and sexual dysfunction comparing to the non-victims group. A similar pattern of sexual behavior shows that both rape and coercion victims tend to have more partners than non-victims and illustrate higher rates of dysfunctional sexual behavior. The study shows no much different from sexual variables

Infidelity is the action or state of being unfaithful to a spouse or other sexual partner. In evaluating the topic of ‘what psychological disorders do men vs. women deal with while going through infidelity,’ it is made distinctly clear that infidelity affect the two genders starkly different. It has been found through research that women widely understood in society to be more emotional, suffer from ‘anxiety and depression illnesses’ while men mainly suffer ‘anti-social disorders and disorders’ resulting from substance abuse.

This tested the hypothesis regarding the beliefs about infidelity in dating relationships reflect pluralistic ignorance, a misperception in which people mistakenly believe that their own personal attitudes and behavior differ from others' when they do not. Consistent with pluralistic ignorance findings in other domains, undergraduates reported that the average university student (a) saw dating infidelity as more acceptable and (b) engaged in unfaithful acts more frequently than they themselves did. Neither type of infidelity (sexual, emotional, both sexual and emotional, or unspecified; Study 1, N = 176) nor motivated reasoning (i.e., defensiveness; Study 2, N = 359) moderated

In the article, Recovery From Infidelity: Differentiation of Self, Trauma, Forgiveness, and Posttraumatic Growth Among Couples in Continuing Relationships, Ashley Heintzelman, Nancy L. Murdock, Romana C. Krycak, and Larissa Seay (2014) discuss their interest in studying couples that decide to remain in a romantic relationship after sexual infidelity occurs. Infidelity is one of the most difficult issues couples can face. There are many negative consequences of infidelity and it is also known as the most common reason for divorce. It was also noted in the article, that a couple who seeks professional therapy treatments are able to experience happiness again and that despite all the negative affects are able to be a fully functioning couple again.

Sexual infidelity is an issue most couples don’t like to thinks about when they are considering marriage. 85 percent of adults marry in their life-times. 94 percent expect to marry their soul-mate and maintain a life-long, monogamous relationship until death. Unfortunately 40% of men and women who divorce report having been unfaithful during their marriage (Gordon, Baucom and Synder, 2008). Infidelity can evoke feelings of anger, resentment, fear and hurt to the wronged partner and guilt, shame and self-doubt in the perpetrator. This paper will examine the components, possible motivations, risk factors and treatment for sexual infidelity in committed couples.
