The previous chapter employs anthropological techniques and theories to understand the relationship between disability and sexuality. Few researches in anthropology were incorporated in the previous chapter that examines the way cultural values and belief system, social structure and gender expectations impact the chances of people with disabilities in sexual and marriage relationships. This chapter explores the attitudes of the non disabled people towards those with developmental disabilities like

A recent CNN article brought to light a growing trend of “compensated dating” in Hong Kong’s teenage girl population. In “compensated dating,” a young woman agrees to go out on a date with a man for a price, but more often the “date” ends up being sex. Though the girls themselves deny it, this type of short-term relationship is really only a variation of teenage prostitution, with the distinction that the girls are handing out sexual favors to earn extra shopping money rather than out of desperation

Thursday, March 24,2016 at10:02 ET. The author is Lawrence Hurley. On Wednesday, March 23,2016 the Supreme Court heads toward a legal challenge created by a Christian nonprofit employers that are against providing female workers insurance that covers birth control which is required by Obama’s healthcare law. The employers call contraception as immoral and they also said that the government should not make religious believers to choose either following their faith or following the law. That places of

In chapter 5, I learned about different ways of birth control. For males there are condoms for a barrier method. While for women, they have many barrier the methods and birth control pills. Male condoms fit over the penis, while the women condoms are single-use nitrile sheath for internal use during vaginal intercouse. Both condoms have options to use spermicides which is a substance that kills the sperm. Aside from condoms women have diaphragm, which is a latex, cup-shape that blocks access to the

Compared to previous generations, Millennials are significantly less religious (Twenge, Exline, Grubbs, Sastry & Campbell, 2015). Since 2010, 12th grade adolescents were seventy-five percent more likely than adolescents of previous generations to say religion was not important to them.

Surveys conducted since 1972 showed incremental increases in the number

2014, the teen birth rate had fallen to an historic low of 24.2 live births per one thousand females aged fifteen–nineteen” (Birth Control 1). Alice had been feeling ill the past couple of weeks, she didn’t think anything of it until it was the second week she had been feeling ill. After school one day she went to the store and bought a home pregnancy test, when she took it, it was positive.

I strongly dislike when people lack understanding. When it comes to the “Black Lives Matter” movement, why are people quick to raise “All Lives Matter”? Instead of trying to understand the hardship and racism that African Americans face, people are quick to be defensive and assume that if Black lives matter then all of a sudden now no one elses’ lives matter. Saying “All Lives Matter” is a selfish sentiment showing that people lack a level of compassion when it comes to an issue that does not address

Shelley & Rebecca – Thank you for your wonderful posts – I believe that you provide a wonderful look at the preconceived notions people have about mental illness and gun control. It is indeed challenging when people persist in passing on what is really a myth about gun violence and mental illness. You note that Matzl and MacLeish (2015) provide instead a list of risk factors that correlate with gun violence.

having the clinics would cut pregnancy rates in half. Students that have access to free birth control would be able to get the information they need and make sure they are protected at all times if they decided they wanted to have sex.

If a student feel like they need someone to talk to other than their counselor about
