In the novel Cutting for Stone, the author, Verghese displays many of the women suffering great loss and agony as a result from promiscuous behavior. Most of the women in the novel are presented as nothing more than an object placed for men’s pleasure. However, when the women initiate this pleasure-seeking behavior and follow through with it, they suffer greatly. The men consistently participate in unwed intercourse, and it is accepted as the way of life. Marion’s thoughts, at sixteen years old,

A study done by Vrangalova (2015) suggests that casual sex can form negative outcomes. In the study it suggests that the self-esteem of women will decrease due to more negative outcomes when it comes to hooking up.

In the current study the effects of hooking up and self-esteem between men and women will be tested using a survey that involves Rosenberg’s Self Esteem Scale. A correlation method will

First slide My presentation enhanced my knowledge of Foucault and his theory, and raised more questions than answers, which were helped by discussion in the seminar. The importance of rereading these key critical theories and explaining them in my own words was highlighted by this presentation, as doing so was fundamental to my understanding. Researching further for the presentation was also indicative of the further research needed for other theories across the module in order to aid my understanding

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley is a book centered around underage sex, substance abuse and lack of morality, a book which is a part of the school's curriculum. Many books with homosexual characters have been banned and challenged around the nation. This is not justified considering some of these books contain no explicit content.

ERASOR, is an empirically guided tool that relies on the clinical judgment of professionals (Worling & Curwen, 2001, Miccio-Fonseca, 2013). Like the J-SOAP-II, the ERASOR 2.0 is also public domain.

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.

“A human being is essentially a sexual being”(Novak, 271). As David Novak above states, all humans are born with a natural inclination to fulfill his or her sexual right. Each person has needs that they yearn to have someone satisfy for them. The issue that isn’t so clear is how people satisfy these burning urges within them.

In Greece, homosexuality became common within their culture; which with this socially accepted involvement, some could say, provided the groundwork for the child molestation act of pederasty. It appears the Greek’s institutionalized sodomy to a new level for children that involved predominantly upper-class men in the 7th century B.C.; shamefully, boosted with pride concerning this ‘training system as their civil duty.’ They professed to be giving needed guidance to young boys (eromenos); who became
