Butler, J. (1991) asserts in her article entitled “To Theorize as a Lesbian” that sexuality is self-determined.

Same Sex Marriage

Marriage is often considered a sacred rite that only a few could experience in their lifetimes. Some would find themselves in a bountiful and happy marriage while a few would find themselves in short and sometimes painful marriages. Nonetheless, the debate has still fostered new arguments considering the entrance of LGBT communities over their rights to a recognized marriage. However, given the current situation of same-sex marriages in the United States, it is visible that it is unconstitutional to bind something such as marriages to people just because of their gender preferences for it is a direct violation to one’s right to make choices ...

On June 26, 2015 the US Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage and officially recognized the constitutional right of Americans to register same-sex unions across the country. This historic step was preceded by the trial of James Obergefell who sued the state of Ohio because it had refused to recognize him to be the widower of the deceased husband, with whom Obergefell got married 20 years ago before the state officially banned gay unions.

Previously, the registration of same-sex marriage was under the jurisdiction of each state, only 37 of which granted the procedure a legal status. The first state ...

As a result of the political typology quiz helping to inform me what ideology I have, I would describe my political ideology as next generation left. This means that my political beliefs are that the best way for any government to operate is to advocate a liberal attitude towards many issues that include homosexuality. This means that I am very open to the idea of gay marriage. The results also mean that I am pro-abortion and support the rights of women to abort if that is their personal choice. Because of my beliefs I have a positive view towards the environment that ...

Is tyranny is an unacceptable way of ruling people in the 21st century, or has it taken a new name in the form of Imperial Presidency. The American Presidency has become an Imperial Presidency, despite the fact that this is not what the founding fathers had in mind for the nation, as they opposed tyranny in government. This paper will thus demonstrate what an Imperial Presidency is, how it works in practice, and how examples from American Presidents, both past and present, have utilized the features of an Imperial Presidency to execute their power and attain their goals.

Marriage is a phenomenon which can be viewed from many angles given its characteristics. It is one of the basic socially determined stages in an individual's life. By definition, marriage is a legally attested union between two partners which presupposes sexual interaction as well as producing children and bringing them up together. Since marriage is one of the central phenomenon, its essence have always induced a lot of debates. For instance, until recently, couples of the ...

Natural selection can be referred to as a process through which biological traits turn either more or less common within a population as a function of the impact of hereditary traits on the differential reproductive victory of organisms’ interaction with their surroundings. It is a major evolution mechanism. Charles Darwin popularized the term natural selection with an intention to have it compared with artificial selection, now referred to as selective breeding.

It is commonly known that children are the young individuals who have not reached the age of majority, and are the offspring of their natural parents. Starting from the end of the 19th century, the roles of family and children in particular have begun shifting, and remain changing up to these days. The relationships between children and parents have been the subjects of studies of many disciplines, starting from psychology and early child development to economics and politics. Parental involvement (regarded as "the interaction and assistance provided by parents to children" (Blair, 2014) into the developmental ...

As the United States is growing more diverse, people from different backgrounds are interacting and negotiating to bring new issues that are affecting marriage today. One of the contemporary issues that are affecting the family arena is the marriage. It is not yet clear in American society on issues such as who should be allowed to marry, either heterosexuals or homosexuals, expectations once married and steps that are followed in the marriage (Cherlin, 2009). This issue has led to the dropping of the importance of marriage. Gallup poll conducted early in last year indicates that the rate of marriage ...

Introduction

Homelessness is a substantial and systemic problem, as it provides people with the fewest resources even less of a chance to better themselves and escape the cycle of poverty. Homeless youth, in particular, face particular problems, being offered substantially fewer chances to succeed compared to other youth of the same age who are not homeless. There are many reasons for youth to become homeless; in many cases, homeless children have homeless parents, or have been tied up in the system without a concrete family structure (e.g. orphans). One substantial phenomenon is the homeless LGBT child; despite the many social advances ...

Introduction

Multicultural education is essentially designed to prepare all students to be good citizens in a democratic society. This is done by teaching the students to be considerate of the needs of every single individual in the society. Multicultural education essentially clarifies how issues related to culture; race, gender, religion, disabilities and ethnicity are intertwined or connected with the process and content of education (Banks, 2009). This is why there is a great need to adapt the current curriculum for multicultural classrooms.

At my current placement, the curriculum cannot be considered to be considerate of multicultural student body. Although most of ...

Introduction

Apart from the aesthetic value that literary works bequeath humankind, they are of great importance since they help in socio-cultural construction and analysis. The novels, The Reluctant Fundamentalist and Pariah exemplify this reality.

Question 1: Analysing How the Concept of Intersectional Identity Is At Work

One of the socio-cultural themes that have been explored in the two novels The Reluctant Fundamentalist and Pariah is that of intersectional identity. Intersectional personality refers to an overlap of fusion of intersections of biological, cultural, social, political or economic categories in an individual. In most cases, these categories may involve sexual orientation, class, ability, gender, race, caste and even identity. In both films, the concept ...

Gay marriage is part of same sex marriage where the democrat defines it as a union or marriage of people who are of the same sex loving each other. Democrat’s liberal supports the legalization of gay marriage and other types of same sex marriages such as bisexual, lesbian, as well as transgender. This they argue is part of ensuring equal rights to every citizen. They therefore oppose to the constitutional amendment which establish marriage a one woman one man union. They argue that every person has the right to marry regardless of his/her sexual orientation.

This paper intends to discuss the “Macbeth” and presents a succinct analysis of the play along with discussing all other related aspects.

- What core social values are most challenged by legalized gay adoption?

In my opinion, the core social values that are most challenged by legalized gay adoption are that children should be adopted exclusively by heterosexual couples. In 2013, conservatives such as Rick Santorum said that adopted children would be better off being adopted by a family whose father is in prison than a gay, married couple ( Pappas, 2012). Pope Benedict used his voice for religion to say that gay couples adopting children are a threat to humanity itself (Pappas, 2012). The core values that a marriage is between a man and a woman, and, ...

Roger Spottiswoode’s film And the Band Played On, based on the book of the same name by Randy Shilts, is a tremendous drama that touches on many distinct issues that were present at the time of the discovery of the AIDS virus, as well as the curious resistance medical and disease experts experienced from affected populations, the government and even other medical professionals. Chiefly following a team of researchers at the CDC, led by Don Francis (Matthew Modine) and William Darrow (Richard Masur), the film follows the attempts of this organization and others to track the spread of the disease, ...

In his 2004 article “How Straights Will Benefit” Jonathan Rauch defends the necessity to allow gay marriages. Unlike the more commonly used arguments, the ones used by Rauch are considering the benefits that the legalization of same-sex marriages offers to the society, rather than to the gay couples. The three central arguments for the same-sex marriages state that they will stabilize the relationships and will help gay households raise children in social and financial security and healthy environment, they will make sure that gay people have a chance to establish households and have caregivers in times of need (qtd. ...

History plays a very important role in the development and progress of humanity. Social, cultural and political religious factors play a crucial role in shaping a society. All these factors evolve in a particular way throughout the history to give the society or world a particular shape. The world of today has also experienced such historical evolution. The economy is becoming increasingly global, in which an idea of uniformity and global culture is embedded. But on the other hand, despite the increasing move or evolution towards uniformity, the extremism in the world is also increasing. The reason for that is hidden in the past ...

In gender theory the concept of women as a unified, homogeneous group is challenged through the theory of intersectionality. This theory states that the status of being female is not the only defining characteristic in oppression. As opposed to there being a unified experience of “female oppression” which defines all oppression experienced by women, oppression is defined by the interaction of gender with factors such as class, sexuality and culture (Carbado, 2013).

The movie Pariah displays a number of intersectional facets that interact to create identity. Gender and sexuality are the most obvious intersectional factors explored in the movie. However, Alike’ ...

Perspectives on Marriage

1. Hosea was obsessed on Gomer because of her beauty and obsession cannot be equated to love if it is an attachment to the physical beauty of a person. Hosea’s commitment to Gomer is the kind of love that did not involve sexual intimacy since it was more on how to redeem her and prevent her from becoming a prostitute. The religious significance of Hosea’s commitment to Gomer is based on his sexual desires, but to honor her as a woman and earn her own self-respect.

Women have historically played a subordinate role to men across social, political and economic spheres. The oppression is clear in the firmly embedded gender roles set expectations of proper attitudes, activities and behaviour for both genders. Gender differences have persisted in the United States culture due to the systematic socialization of infants and babies, adolescents, children and adults. Women are traditionally expected to hold domestic roles and child rearing, while men, who are thought to be stronger and more aggressive, took on the responsibility of providing for the family. This perception is reflected in the careers that the respective genders ...

The cultural background through which a woman was brought up in plays an important role in shaping their morals and attitudes. Depending on how culture stereotypes women and girls, it has a way of influencing their vulnerability to violence and their treatment to gender in their future relationships. Women who are brought up to believe that a man has absolute authority are likely to fall victims of abuse and violence in their relationships. Similarly, girls brought up in abusive environments are likely to develop fear towards males and hence being inclined to sex relationships (Hassouneh & Nancy 315).

1. What did Piaget mean when he said that the preoperational child "lacked conservation"?

Piaget meant that a child does not understand that the properties of an object remain constant even though the physical appearance may have changed. For example, 1L of water in a glass of a diameter of 5cm is equal to 1L of water in a glass whose diameter is 10cm even though they may have seen it being poured out of the same container into the glasses. A child lacks operations to manipulate the idea that the water’s properties are conserved and the amount is the same. Rather, he/ she will see that the water which rises higher in the glass is ...

What are some ways the Christian gospel is perceived in our culture?

Most youths consider Christianity as judgmental, enslaving and unnecessarily strict. The most common reason cited is the anti-gay aspect. In the present world, where there are more rights, privileges and freedom given to people than any other previous times, homo-sexuality is, among other previously considered unnatural deeds, legalized by the government. The legalization of homo-sexuality is spreading rapidly across countries globally. In a study conducted by the UnChristian revealed than out of a sample of 867 young people (404 non-Christians 305 active church goers), the vast majority of non-Christians (91%) asserted that Christianity painted an anti-gay picture. 83% of them said ...

This essay critically explores the claim that school is a significant site in which sex/gender is produced. The claim derives from a broadly social constructionist position, namely one that views sex/gender as being the product of social meanings and practices rather than something biologically given. The essay begins by outlining the social constructionist critique of the biological account of sex/gender. It then reviews recent research on gender and schooling to explore the extent to which the social meanings and practices that make up life in school may be seen as producing relational forms of masculinity and femininity. In exploring these issues, ...

Men and women tend to defer in many aspects. The difference is not only in looks, but also in how they think and understand different situations, their abilities, interest, lifestyle, behavior, and also their role in the society.

For example, studies and researches to evaluate the difference in attitude that exists in both heterosexual men and women towards gay men and lesbians have been in existence since from a very long time ago.

In our continuing series of athletics training at Taylor Centre, it is important to engage in reasonable emergency response plan. It involves the preparedness, response and finally recovery to reduce the unnecessary impact of the disaster.

In regards to relativism and subjectivism we can establish that holding a moral belief is a subjective opinion, but using the divine command theory can lead us to the conclusion that morality has the possibility of objectivity. Opinions could be based on personal culture/folklore, family history, or media portrayal. Unless one can strip away all of these subjective opinion inducing factors, an individual’s specific morality cannot be objective and most likely won’t be relevant to a large amount of ethical situations. This bias obviously limits objectivity, since opinions are decided by a person’s background and social peers instead of morality. ...
