As a lesbian, there are a few slurs that can trigger a spark of dread in me on instinct. The word faggot is one of the first to come to mind. On occasion a group of teasing friends will use such words as a playful insult among one another--and it feels like I am the only person hearing them yell ‘fire’ in a building full of uncaring people. These words burn into my subconscious like a bundle of sticks being thrown into smoldering embers; the hairs on the back of my neck rise, my hands clench into tight fists, and my eyes dart about fearfully for the perpetrator. It is an ugly word--a crude, cruel word in both sound and meaning. It weighs heavily on the tongue like a condemnation, as it remains to be for gay people today. Therefore, due to the word’s implied hatefulness, our culture needs to shift from using faggot as a playful insult, to leaving it behind as we attempt to become a more diverse and accepting world.

Black males have been disproportionately getting in trouble and facing ineffective punishments within the school systems. Bad Boys, based on a three-year study held by Ann Arnett Ferguson, observed daily interactions between teachers and students in order to understand the children’s self-development in relation to the school. Ann discovered that many of the issues originated from the school system, “What I observed at Rosa Parks during more than three years of fieldwork in the school, heard from the boy himself, from his teachers, from his mother, made it clear that just as children were tracked into futures as doctors, scientists, engineers, word processors, and fast-food workers, there were also tracks for some children, predominantly African American and male, that led to prison” (2). This quote represents the great influence institutions have in creating, and regulating children’s identifications. Schools, such as Rosa Parks Elementary School, are believed to be the reason these “bad boy” types of children exist.

Bozarth (1998, 2001a), a representative of the classical view argues that unconditional positive regard is the ‘curative variable’, if ‘conditional positive regard’ is a condition that leads to a client being incongruent. By being shown unconditional positive regard, the client can free themselves from their prior constraints and be able to integrate with the experiences of the ‘organism’. Thus, ‘organismic and self-experiences ultimately become integrally aligned with the unitary actualising tendency’ (Rogers 1963). Bozarth (2001a) proposes that this is Rogers’ (1959) theory and that to ignore this underlying assumption results in a radical change of Rogers’ theory of therapy. Bozarth (1998) proposes a re-conceptualisation of the therapist
