Abstract
The paper relates that boys are failing at alarming rates in an educational system that, the paper contends, has been wrongly attempting to implement gender neutrality. The paper reveals that there is substantial evidence of extreme differences between the very biological make-up of the brains of boys and girls. The paper explains how these differing natural tendencies of boys and girls affect the way they learn. The paper maintains that educators must begin to teach children in the manner in which their brains actually function.
From the Paper
"Historically speaking the gender differences in education have been under-recognized if not overtly ignored throughout the establishment of early childhood education as a specialty within education. Additionally, the field of educators has been traditionally and currently gendered toward women, and this is especially true in the lower grades. (Sargent, 2004, p. 173) Though this is not to say that women are incapable of teaching young boys, given the training to do so it does leave some questions as to the validity of the thinking process that helps develops everything from curriculum to day to day classroom interactions between young boys and their peers as well as their teachers, and limits male role models in the system significantly."

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to introduce, discuss and analyze the topic of same-sex marriage. Specifically, it discusses if same-sex marriage is a threat to family and national values. The paper also looks at who feels threatened and why they feel this way. It contends that same-sex marriages should be available for gay and lesbian couples and that they should be able to celebrate their commitment and enjoy the benefits of marriage.
From the Paper
"Many Americans tend to look back at the 1950s as the epitome of happily married life, with the perfectly dressed mother seeing the husband off to work, the children off to school, and happily managing the home, waiting only for their return. However, the 1940s and 50s had their share of problems, as well. Author Coontz states, "By 1946 one in every three marriages was ending in divorce. Even couples who stayed together went through rough times, as an acute housing shortage forced families to double up with relatives or friends. Tempers frayed and generational relations grew strained" (Coontz, 1997, p. 35). Nevertheless, most people were married in the 1950s, 86 percent of 1950s children grew up in two-parent households, and 90 percent of all households were families (Coontz, 1997, p. 37). Thus, marriage played a large role in society, and the unmarried were certainly the minority. "

'Straight and Narrow?', 2007.
A review of Thomas E. Schmidt's book 'Straight and Narrow?'.

Abstract
This paper reviews and discusses the book 'Straight and Narrow?' by Thomas E. Schmidt. The paper reports that Schmidt's book addresses the view of various Christian factions toward homosexuality and some of the scriptural support they offer for their view. According to the paper, the author is not demonizing homosexuals or homosexuality but recognizes that many Christians do just that. The paper offers a chapter by chapter analysis of the book.
From the Paper
"Chapter 5, "From Sodom to Sodom," discusses the scriptural references to Sodom and the fate of Sodom, presumably destroyed because of unnatural sex. Revisionists see the Sodomites as guilty not of homosexuality but of inhospitality, though Schmidt cites evidence that their sin was sexual in nature. The fate of Sodom has been given a lot of weight by Christians as showing God's displeasure with homosexual acts, though the fact that there is some doubt as to what precise acts are being cited in the Bible raises questions about the meaning of the destruction of Sodom and of the lessons that should be taken from the events. Schmidt considers the textual evidence and the meaning of the terms used to the people of the time, recognizing as he always does that what is most important is the meaning when the scripture was written and not the meaning imposed on the text by later generations who may be distorting the original message. Much of that message has been treated as if it had been received clearly and distinctly, when in fact it has been subject to differences in translation and interpretation over the centuries and so might not be as definitive as believed."

Leadership Styles and Workplace Diversity, 2007.
This paper explores what approaches to leadership work most effectively in highly diverse groups.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper discusses the communication differences between men and women and reveals that due to this, many women are overlooked for promotions and other issues in which they are extremely well-qualified. The paper studies workplace diversity and looks at the issue of conflict through workforce diversity. The paper also discusses the issue of strategy for innovation and change. The paper asserts that these issues can meet with success for a company that is willing to put the time and effort into making sure that the workforce is properly diversified and decisions are made on an appropriate level and time schedule.
From the Paper
"Diversity in the American workplace is very important but corporate culture in this country works against women to a certain extent (Tannen, 1995). The conversational styles that most women use tend to be less popular with businesses and corporations than the conversational styles that men use. Because of this, women are often overlooked for promotions, are seen as less confident, and are not considered as worthwhile when it comes to individuals giving their ideas and helping out with teamwork. Much of this comes from childhood when little girls were taught to be nice to other individuals and help to downplay their weaknesses, while little boys were taught to play up the weaknesses of other individuals and claim strength and domination if they were able (Tannen, 1995; Adams & Galanges, 2005)."

Comparative Worth, 2007.
An analysis of the pros and cons associated with the practice of comparative worth in the workplace.
1,130 words (approx. 4.5 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 39.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses the concept of comparative worth between males and females in the workplace. It suggests that comparative worth is a good starting point for understanding how to create gender equality in the work place. The writer of the paper presents his opinion that there are many different factors that go into the wage decision calculus and that relying upon comparative worth alone is flawed. The paper discusses these assertions.
From the Paper
"In the final analysis, comparative worth is an idealistic strategy to gender equality in application to wages within the workplace. However, the actual implementation of such a system requires not only a strong criteria for judging comparative worth, but also a complete shift within the organizational and financial planning of a company. As a result, it is extremely difficult to implement on a widespread basis. Creating a clear standard by which to understand and frame comparative worth is the first essential step for HR managers to attempt to implement such a policy on a large organization wide level."

Workplace Rituals, 2007.
An overview of some conversational rituals that take place in the workplace.
1,100 words (approx. 4.4 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 38.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper looks at the interaction between people in the workplace and focuses on some of the rituals taken for granted such as conversational rituals which can lead to cross-cultural misunderstanding. It also looks at the different ways that men and women actually function within the workplace and hints that the workplace of the future, presuming it becomes more diverse, will continue to experience differences in how each subset of individuals operates within it.
From the Paper
"One common ritual, discussed at length by Tannen, is uttering the words "I'm sorry," in instances when no apology is necessary. This is often viewed as a self-deprecating type of saying because it pins blame on oneself in an attempt to make the other person feel better. Tannen points out studies that have indicated that women and men tend to use this conversational ritual differently: "Holmes found that women uttered the most apologies to other women and far fewer to men, while men uttered very few to other men and slightly more to women," (Tannen 47). This is a clue into the different ways that men and women actually function within the workplace, and a hint that the workplace of the future, presuming it becomes more diverse, will continue to experience differences in how each subset of individuals operates within it.

Mexican Sexual Slavery, 2007.
This paper discusses the issue of Mexican sexual slavery in the U.S.
2,008 words (approx. 8.0 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 63.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that the U.S. tends to look at the problems of sexual slavery in Asia and or Russia rather than acknowledge that one of the largest problems of sexual slavery in the world occurs in the US and is mainly comprised of Mexican sex slaves. The writer points out that in almost the entire U.S., prostitution is illegal, as is undocumented immigration. The writer notes however, that current Mexican law has a system of legal prostitution, though prostitution is not legal in certain settings. The writer maintains that the problem then materializes as a divergent acceptable code of conduct between Mexico and the U.S., as Mexico sees problems with prostitution but it remains a legal option for women in a depressed economic climate. The writer concludes that this work brings to light one of the most immediate of human issues, as sexual slavery, and especially with regard to Mexican sexual slavery that is an issue that is in serious need of address by local, state, national and international lawmakers and peoples.
Outline:
Introduction to Problem
Current Laws Regarding Sexual Slavery
US Laws
Mexican Laws
International Laws
Actions Being Taken:
By the U.S.
Actions of Mexico
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Within the US the laws regarding prostitution and those of immigration are decidedly separate. In almost the entire nation prostitution is illegal, as is undocumented immigration. The individual committing the crime of undocumented immigration and or prostitution is penalized for actions, usually by deportation, no matter what the "vocation" or impetus for immigration is. Victims of sexual slavery are then put in a double bind, as their immigrant status is grounds for expulsion from the country and they are also very likely to be charged with prostitution crimes that will likely bar any legitimate entry to the US in the future. Additionally, many of the victims are minors, another issue not addressed by current laws, though moves are currently in place to do so."

Gender Differences, 2007.
An analysis of cognitive theory and sociological theory and how they apply to gender differences.
1,157 words (approx. 4.6 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 39.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses gender differences between men and women. It begins by differentiating sex from gender. It then details two of numerous theories about gender differences and classification: cognitive theory and sociological theory. The paper describes each theory and discusses how they can be practically applied to understand the differences between men and women.
From the Paper
"Emotionally speaking, men and women deal with it in different ways. Men are generally aggressive while women are more naturally nurturing and strong in social memories. It is a common belief that men are less emotional than women and more inclined in logic and reason when dealing with decisions and every day life. Women, on the other hand, are more in tuned with their emotions like happiness, sadness and fear. They also express anxiety and depression feeling than men. Men appear adept at maximizing their hostility and anger, and at minimizing emotions to do with vulnerability, guilt, fear and hurt. These emotional dealings are because men and women are controlled by different areas of the brain. The DNA of the male and female form a different base upon which experience falls. Our genetic makeup causes information to be stored in a slightly different manner, integrated in a slightly different way, interacting internally in a different way ... all sufficient to produce the observed psychological differences."

Abstract
This paper presents an examination of a scholarly article about one aspect of human sexuality. It specifically explores an article called "Typing, Doing, and Being: Sexuality and the Internet" written by Michael Ross, which discusses human sexuality and the Internet. The paper contains a copy of the article at the end of the paper.
Table of Contents:
The Article
The Facts Used
Reflection
From the Paper
"The Internet provides the forum for one person to have several different sexual personas with different ages, genders, preferences and desires."
"This has held true through other readings I have done in the past. In fact, news shows are constantly broadcasting the fact that people use the internet to pretend to be something other than what they are. An extreme example is that show that sets people up with a decoy and they believe they are coming to meet a 12-year-old girl and the cameras are waiting when they arrive."
"Outside of such illegal and immoral behaviors articles have supported the idea that the Internet is an alluring sex arena because it allows participants to "try on" various personas and act out their sexual fantasies while remaining safely hidden behind invented names, genders and pictures."

Domestic Partners and FMLA, 2007.
This paper discusses FMLA and domestic partner relationships.
1,172 words (approx. 4.7 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 40.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article the writer presents an examination of the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and looks at how it relates to homosexual couples. The writer explores various companies that provide benefits for domestic partners as well as state statutes that mandate such policies. The writer claims how unfair it is that benefits are not federally mandated for the FMLA when it comes to domestic partner relationships. The writer points out that children are being adopted every day by gay couples and those parents are being deprived of spending the first few months at home bonding with that child. The writer maintains that a negative impact on the workforce is produced by the lack of federal mandate for FMLA with domestic partnerships. The writer concludes the essay with a personal point of view.
From the Paper
"In today's society many couples are non traditional. They are fully committed to each other and their life together but for various reasons are not married. Same sex couples are not allowed to be married and many heterosexual couples don't believe the government should force them to have a formal ceremony to commit to each other.
The FMLA leaves those couples out in the cold. Recently companies across the nation have taken a close look at the impact refusing domestic partner benefits has on the morale of their workforce and have decided to implement benefits on their own. In addition some states have made the move to mandate coverage for domestic partners through their jobs."

Girl, Interrupted, 2007.
This paper provides an analysis of the film "Girl, Interrupted" of 1999.
1,249 words (approx. 5.0 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 42.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses the film "Girl, Interrupted", which is based upon Susanna Kaysen's memoir of the same name. The writer notes that the film makes frequent use of the stock cliches of films representing female madness. The writer points out that the message of "Girl, Interrupted" is really that Susanna is an innocent and unjustly accused person, not that the way society treats the mentally disturbed is fundamentally cruel or inhumane. The writer maintains that the more stereotypical the representation of woman and madness, the more poignant Susanna's plight seems and the less her psychiatrists understand her.
From the Paper
"The insanity of the therapists at the asylum is highlighted by the fact that the main problem Susanna's therapist has is that Susanna sleeps with her boyfriend and kisses an orderly while incarcerated. Susanna sees this as an act of proto-feminist defiance and points out that if she were a boy, she would not be labeled as promiscuous. Her stuffy therapist disapproves, of course, but the audience is meant to cheer. Obviously, the really crazy character is her uptight therapist, not the young woman. This is a fairly easy ideological victory for the film, as essentially it is penalizing the therapist for not embracing contemporary norms of female sexuality. What seemed abnormal for a girl in the 1960s is no longer abnormal today, but this says little about the so-called madness of the other characters. It merely states that some harmless behaviors were once called insane, even though the behavior of most of the inmates, like self-immolation, laxative abuse, and drug addiction, are not harmless."

Abstract
This paper reviews and discusses gender roles through the years. According to the paper, throughout history, gender roles have played a vital part in the shaping of Western society. This paper focuses on gender roles from the 1920's through today, and examines the sociological trends of these roles over time.
From the Paper
"As in previous times of crisis, women found themselves again asked to go to work outside the home. With increased demand for weapon manufacturing, and with nearly ten million men overseas, it became clear that the role of women must change again. Instead of being icons for homesick soldiers, the women of WWII had to become factory workers. While women had been in the workforce previously, their role was often still as educators, retail sales personnel, and other non-tasking roles. For the first time, women were asked by their government to join the labor force as skilled laborers, welders, and other traditionally male roles (Rupp, 63)."

Abstract
In this paper, the writer points out that women and their status in society are issues more seriously discussed today then ever before, but disabled women still have a long struggle to find dominant and powerful positions in different fields, in general, and with respect to their sexuality, in particular. The writer further points out that there are many issues that disabled women face but the issue of their sexuality is generally brushed under the carpet as they are stereotyped as asexual. They also suffer abuses because of lack of education or lack of rules and regulation in the institutional facilities. The writer concludes that the role of parent and immediate family is crucial as they should help family members with disabilities develop as normal beings instead of suppressing their sexualities. Further, the writer notes that society should play its role and activists must highlight such issues.
Outline:
Introduction
Human Need
Stereotypes
Research
Women in Institutions
Lack of Sex Education
The Laws & Society
Concept of Self
Conclusions
From the Paper
"Sexuality is not just about having or the ability to have physical intercourse but it also about being comfortable with one's own body and feminine side. It is about dressing up nicely, looking good, and admiring others and being admired. These are the basic human needs. Everyone wants to look good and feel god about oneself. Disabled women also have the right to develop a personal style without suppressing their desires and sexuality. They are also complete human beings. Their lives should not dependent on the wait for another meal in a day. We must recognize that just like eating, drinking and breathing, these women have their sexual needs as well which needs an outlet."

Gestational Surrogacy, 2007.

Abstract
In this article, the writer presents the types of surrogacy and then develops the arguments which emphasize that gestational surrogacy is not the best type. Next, the writer presents a solution for replacing commercial surrogacy, followed by a brief presentation of non-commercial surrogacy. Further, reasons for which the writer considers non-commercial surrogacy to be better than gestational surrogacy are presented. The end of the paper presents a brief conclusion of all the arguments which have been stated. The writer maintains that gestational surrogacy should be replaced in all cases by non-commercial surrogacy, a practice that would allow a closer relationship between the parents and the surrogate mother and would be able to develop under the jurisdiction of several law stipulations.
From the Paper
"Even though in the recent years it seems that the authorities in many parts of the world have understood the reasons for which people choose this practice and, in addition, they attempted to offer support through law and several facilities - for example, in the state of Virginia the law is especially suitable for facilitating surrogate arrangements, and independent legal advice on this issue can be provided to appropriate couples through our consultant network -, there are still many reasons for which gestational surrogacy is still not an overall accepted practice. Among these reasons there might be encountered the ethnical issues it might create, the lack of proper legislation regarding the norm and cultural problems as well. Even though, the practice cannot be totally forbidden, because in this way many couples would be left without the chance of having their own children."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"EPA provides protection to employees of the opposite sex who work within the same organization (Bland 1999). EPA applies to an employer who has two or more employees and who is subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act or FLSA. Employees may sue managers or supervisors who exercise control over them. They are, thus, considered "employers." EPA recognizes exemptions to its rule. These are unequal skills, unequal effort, unequal responsibility, dissimilar working conditions and differences in seniority and merit systems. The courts also recognize legitimate grounds for pay inequity. These are longevity or service; disciplinary action, such as demotion. The courts, however, prohibit unequal pay to male and female employees when the pay is based on the employee's previous pay; on account of the average cost of employing workers of one gender as greater than of the opposite; and when based solely on the grounds that the employees worked on different shifts (Bland)."

Manhood Defined, 2007.
A philosophical essay on the nature of manhood.
912 words (approx. 3.6 pages), 2 sources, MLA, $ 32.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This essay explores the concept of masculinity from several different perspectives. The paper first shows how "man" is often used, its connotations, and how the term may be linguistically problematic. The author asserts that the term "man" may also imply being a part of humanity, which has had implications for the enslaved as well as victims of prejudice. In particular, the author examines the experience of black males and their experience of racism and denial of human rights. The author concludes by encouraging adults to simply behave in a mature and responsible manner regardless of gender.
From the Paper
"It is true that sometimes, being a man is equated with just simply being human, as in the phrase 'mankind.' This definition is problematic, since it means that women are excluded from the definition of humanity, or encompassed in a definition of manhood that excludes femininity from generic personhood. "The political philosophy of republican citizenship, which Americans originally borrowed from European Enlightenment thinkers, equated the 'rights of man' with the rights of all citizens. Since men were the only voters in most nineteenth century political contests, voting rights and citizenship were directly linked to manhood. This connection between citizenship and manhood shaped the language, strategies and objectives of political and social reform" (Estes, 2005). Advocates of female equality have rightly protested this easy association of being human with being a member of the male gender, preferring the word 'humankind' to mankind, when speaking about all persons."

The Image of Lilith, 2007.
This paper discusses Lilith as the first woman and a symbol of independence.
1,323 words (approx. 5.3 pages), 11 sources, APA, $ 44.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article the writer notes that there are many women who might be admired in history, but there is one independent woman who seems to have accomplished a lot and who has been in existence since the beginning of recorded time. The writer explains that Lilith, supposedly of Hebrew mythology, but also found in other ancient myths predating Hebraic literature, is a woman of distinctive and admirable characteristics. The writer maintains that today, women praise her and write books about independent women, as Lilith becomes the patroness of strong and influential women who are becoming leaders and figureheads. The writer concludes that women's fight against the wage gap, discrimination against women in political parties and the recent endorsement by NOW of Hillary Clinton to become President may be the result of this image of the independent woman becoming more accepted, more real and legitimate.
From the Paper
"The body that God created was divided into two, the male and the female, becoming separate beings. Later on, Eve was created. The first female, however, according to the Midrash, was Lilith, who refused to submit to Adam, as she was his equal. When Adam demanded that she submit, she fled from him, leaving Adam alone. When Adam complained to God that he was lonely, God created Eve. Thus begins a history of Lilith fleeing the dominant male."
"In the Midrash, after the "Fall," and expulsion from Eden, Adam reunited with Lilith and she bore him several children before he returned to Eve. In the Midrash, the children Lilith bore Adam became demons and she became the Queen of the Demons. In other stories she remained childless and unpartnered, either with a husband or remained with Adam."

Same-Sex Marriages, 2006.
A discussion regarding the controversial issue of same-sex marriage.
752 words (approx. 3.0 pages), 6 sources, MLA, $ 26.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper takes a look at same-sex marriage and the opposition this controversial subject is receiving. According to the paper, Massachusetts is the only state that allows same-sex marriage. The paper argues that opposition to same-sex marriages must be overcome by developing new definitions of marriage and by dispelling stereotypes that impede change.
From the Paper
"Opponents of same-sex marriage fear gay parenting for many reasons. Many believe that the family structure that helps the child the most is a family headed by two biological parents. One rationale given is that children need same-sex role models to teach them how to behave as a man or as a woman (Knight). Opponents of same-sex marriage also claim that children raised by homosexuals are more dissatisfied with their own gender, suffer a greater rate of molestation within the family, and have homosexual experiences more often (Knight). Indirectly, opponents go on to say that gay marriage will encourage teens who are unsure of their sexuality to become victims of suicide, depression, drug abuse, and sexually transmitted diseases (Benne and McDermott, 2004).

Gender, Career and Communication, 2007.
This paper discusses gender as it affects career development.
1,842 words (approx. 7.4 pages), 10 sources, APA, $ 59.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer looks at career choices and achievements as they relate to gender. The writer discusses that women's career development presents issues absent from the same kinds of strictly career choices made by most men. The writer maintains that a woman's choices are often determined by powerful social and cultural forces that shape her decisions in accordance with frequently false assumptions in regard to women's needs, abilities and aspirations. The writer concludes that a woman's career path is more often interrupted - and ultimately destroyed - as she sacrifices for the benefit of her husband or partner's career. The writer also notes that the prejudices that operate against almost all women are far worse for members of many minority groups.
From the Paper
"Yet it is not only the women at the top end of the career spectrum who are faced with these pressures to conform to traditional stereotypes. Those pursuing career paths that require less education and training are just as much the victims of societal attitudes that may cause them to accept less-than-fulfilling positions, at lesser rates of pay, and with fewer chances for advancement. Married women, or women with living with men, regularly find their own career choices limited by those of the men with whom they live. These limitations are not directly the result of any discriminatory practices, or indicative of a pattern of giving preferential treatment to the husband, rather they are the result of the fact that the man still tends to be the higher earner in the household. It is for this reason that a couple, or a couple with children, will more easily decide to relocate for the sake of the man's career, rather than for the sake of the woman's. Necessarily this choice makes the woman's career secondary. Her achievement is placed on hold not merely by this one interruption, but potentially, by a pattern of interruptions that ultimately results in a vastly reduced opportunity for advancement and success. In these instances, a woman is continually starting over while making sacrifices so her husband or partner can advance."
