Chapter 12 of the course textbook discusses the issues of identity development during adolescence. Based in part on the textbook readings and the 60 Minutes videos listed as Required References for this week, consider what you learned about the topic and your reaction to what you read.

In your initial post:

• Identify what you consider to be a sexual identity-related problem or issue that is of importance to you and to society and culture.
• Identify and evaluate the key positions and theoretical arguments relating to your issue.
• Include in your discussion comments on what you have learned about the reasons for differences in sexual orientation (e.g., from biological, cultural, or physiological causes).
• Ground all positions and conclusions in theory and evidence.

In your responses to no fewer than two of your classmates, compare and contrast your respective identifications and evaluations of theoretical arguments and grounding regarding your selected sexual identity-related problem. Additionally, identify any insights you have gained as a result of reading the responses of others.
