Personal Philosophy

Paper #3

For a possible 100 points, write a double-spaced, 4 page (not counting the cover page and references page) research/opinion paper answering the following questions. Use APA format for your citations (more information on how to do that is found here: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/general_format.html). This paper is part of the formation process of your own personal philosophy, so it’s an opportunity to do a little research on topics you may or may not be familiar with, and then to form an opinion about that topic, using research as the foundation of your opinion. For some topics, your textbook will give enough information to help you form an opinion. For other topics, you may need to do a little more research. A great place to start is by entering a few key terms into google.com/scholar

You will not need to include an abstract, but you will need to create a cover page and a reference page, where you will need to list every source that you cite. Quote at least 2 academic resources in addition to your textbook. Use section headings to separate your explanation of each topic numbered below.

1. Describe at least two male-female psychological differences related to sexual desire. How has this been understood/misunderstood in the past, and what do you think can be done to protect the next generation from some of the problems experienced by previous generations?

2. Distinguish between the terms homophobia and antigay prejudice. What are some ways that individuals can encourage greater safety for all members of the community?

3. Briefly explain some of the methods used to treat sexual variations and paraphilias. Imagine that you are talking to a teenager who is justifiably curious about how to distinguish between “being judgmental” about sexual practices and “identifying a dangerous or problematic sexual behavior” – how would you explain the difference to them?

4. The #MeToo Movement has highlighted how often individuals are not believed when they disclose abuse or violation. How would you respond to a person who says that “rape accusations are often false, and are just intended to ruin men’s reputations” ?
