Abstract
In this essay, the writer notes that while much of this paper focuses on the economic and social costs of the sex industry in America, it cannot be ignored that the sex industry is global. The writer points out that while traditional economic discussions focus on legally traded goods and commodities, the sex industry, is one of the most lucrative industries, both in the United States and in the global economy. The writer discusses that sex workers, whether they entered into the industry willingly or by force, are predominantly composed of members of the lower and lower-middle classes. The result is that the sex trade, although a possibly lucrative source of income for female sex workers, actually reduces women's economic power. The writer concludes that furthermore, the sex trade perpetuates existing class distinctions.

From the Paper
"When people discuss the economy, the conversations generally focus on legally traded goods and commodities. However, the black and gray markets form a huge sector of the economy. Furthermore, illegally trade goods and goods that are highly linked to illegal sales have a tremendous impact on society, which may actually surpass the impact of legally traded goods. When people discuss the black market, they frequently speak of stolen items, counterfeit goods, and drugs. However, the largest segment of the black market is actually involved in the sex trade. In fact, the profit from direct traffic in human beings, literally sold into sexual slavery, rivals the profit from illegal drug sales. Once profits from other sectors of the sex trade are factored in, it becomes clear that the sex industry is the most lucrative industry in the American economy, and possibly the world economy."

Feminist vs. Womanist Epistemology, 2007.
A comparison of womanist and feminist philosophies.
741 words (approx. 3.0 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 26.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper examines the term 'womanist', which is used to generally describe the act of acting womanly. The paper explores how this definition includes behavior that is willful, courageous or audacious, according to Alice Walker, who coined the term "womanist epistemology." The paper further examines how the term "feminist" generally takes on another meaning, referring to females or women whose primary intent includes promoting the rights and equal opportunities of women. The writer proposes that the feminist approach is more negative and oppressive in nature, calling too much attention to the negative influence and practices of men in a patriarchal society. The writer argues that while it is important to call attention to oppressive practices, it is important to view a new paradigm with respect to the community as a whole.
From the Paper
"It is different from feminist epistemology as feminist's emphasis tends to be the oppression of women, primarily white women, without addressing categories of race and economics in its approach (Thomas, 1999). Womanist epistemology takes a more comprehensive approach and rather than focus on creating a "paradigm over against men" as it typical with feminist approaches, it offers an approach that recognizes "patriarchal systems as problematic" for the entire community, including women, men and children (Thomas, 1999). Thus it is less likely to pit men against women. Womanist epistemology focuses more on cultural knowledge and attempts to encourage philosophers to examine the dominant cultural themes that influence our living and general practices (Andersen & Hill, 1992; Thomas, 1999)."

Abstract
This paper examines the following research question: "To what extent, will there be a statistically significant effect, at a confidence level of .05, of male and female leadership styles (authoritarian, laissez-faire, democratic) on the ability of employees to self-disclose (relate oneself) to significant others as measured by the Jourard self-disclosure questionnaire?" The author points out that to maintain the research integrity as to the reliability and validity of the measurement data and statistical data analysis, the data collection will adhere to both pre-data collection and during collection procedures. The paper relates that, as the proposed study is seeking to determine the effects of an independent or treatment variable on the outcome or dependent variable, an orthogonal analysis of variance (ANOVA), which is an inferential parametric statistic, will be used to statistically analyze the data.

Gays in the Military, 2007.
This paper argues against gays serving in the United States military.

Abstract
This paper takes a negative stance about gays serving in the United States military and against homosexuals in general. The author presents several arguments why gays should not be allowed to be part of the armed forces and highlights current legislation regarding this issue. The author sees homosexuality as a personal choice.
From the Paper
"Many individuals believe that gays and lesbians are not capable of serving in the military forces of the country and this belief is not based only on personal values, but also on military necessity, though, that does not mean that the personal values of many persons do not reach the same conclusion. In terms of military necessity it is essential for gays and lesbians to be excluded from military units to maintain unit cohesion. Combat performance would also decline if open homosexuals were permitted to serve in the armed forces of the country. Some also view the gay soldiers to be perverts in uniform, and in many cases, they should not have the honor of serving the country even if they are able to observe all service norms. The concepts of homosexuality and lesbian behavior however, have no idea of the expected norms of loyalty, honor and patriotism."

Gay and Lesbian Adoption, 2006.
This paper discusses the adoption of children by gay men and lesbian parents from the perspective of the social worker.
2,375 words (approx. 9.5 pages), 9 sources, APA, $ 72.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that the number of children adopted by gay men and lesbian parents has increased as more state laws have relaxed the prohibition on these types of adoptions and as more social workers and agencies now are willing to accommodate and intervene for them. The author points out that this changing trend has lead to critical concerns about sexual orientation, the probability of molestation, teasing and harassment of the child, which have created a dilemma for the social workers between the need for adoptive families and the principles of his or her profession. The paper relates that research suggests that the adopted children of gay and lesbian parents develop normal or straight relationships with their peers and satisfying relationships with adults of both sexes; therefore, social workers should support this type of adoption as guided by their professional code of ethics.
Table of Contents:
Introduction
History of Adoption
Reasons for Accepting Adoption by Gay or Lesbian Parents
Issues and Concerns
Conclusion
From the Paper
"The revolutions of the 1960s and 1970s further influenced and modified adoption practices. These revolutions were the women's liberation, civil rights movement, sexual revolution, the adoptee's liberty movement, and the birth fathers' rights, birth control, legalized abortion and a dominant single parenthood culture. One consequence was that social workers were encouraged to adjust their role as educators for adoptive parents in helping them recognize and cope with raising adopted children as against raising natural children. Adoptive parents now demand more information on the child they take and whose future is entrusted to them."

Gay Marriage, 2007.
An argument in favor of same-sex marriages
2,048 words (approx. 8.2 pages), 6 sources, MLA, $ 64.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper examines how the issue of gay marriage has become a deeply divisive issue in the United States, and has polarized its politics as well as its society to some extent. This is mainly because the opponents of gay marriage suggest that same-sex marriages threaten the "time-honored institution" of marriages between man and woman and the traditional concept of a family. The writer argues that these arguments are based on false assumptions, religious prejudice, and intolerance of minority views. The writer proposes that such opposition to gay marriages is a violation of the guarantee of equal rights and equal protection to all citizens provided in the US Constitution and there is no justification for not allowing gay marriages.
From the Paper
"One of the basic reasons behind the opposition to gay marriage is the false assumption by some people that homosexuality is a "choice" rather than a natural inclination. This is so obviously a wrong assumption. No one "chooses" his or her sexual orientation. As a matter of fact, in view of the disadvantages faced by gay people in our society, no one in their right mind would voluntarily choose to be a homosexual since such a lifestyle provides them with no advantages whatsoever."

Beyond the Closet, 2007.

Abstract
In this article the writer points out that in 'Life Beyond the Closet', Seidman shows how gay personal and pubic life has changed considerably over the past several decades, to the point that the closet is gradually fading and losing its viability. The writer maintains that especially since the 1990s, concurrent with a shift toward multiculturalism and tolerance in general, gays have secured civil rights and a sense of entitlement to basic freedoms and liberties. However, the writer discusses that normalizing homosexuals and making homosexuality mainstream falls short of achieving true equality and justice because normalization equals assimilation. Further, the writer points out that Seidman shows that gays and lesbians have a long way to go before becoming first-rate citizens of the United States.
From the Paper
"Gays have become part of the mainstream and proudly visible on television and the media. However, normalizing homosexuals and making homosexuality mainstream falls short of achieving true equality and justice because normalization equals assimilation. Without challenging the oppressive social institutions that create homophobia, prejudice, and sexism, normalization is simply not enough. Furthermore, being out of the closet can be dangerous: Seidman notes that hate crimes against gays increased fourfold between 1991 and 1998, and since the "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy, there has been a 70% increase in gay and lesbian military discharges. Gay liberationism remains necessary in order to confront the underlying issues that fuel homophobia, sexism and other lingering injustices in American society."

Abstract
The paper discusses how, over the past several decades, two neighboring Northern African states, Algeria and Morocco, have taken different paths in their views and treatment of families and genders. The paper examines how, as a result of the specific differences in the treatment of gender, the male and female genders have assumed different roles in each of these countries. In this paper, several books and films are discussed and analyzed in order to better describe the topic of gender roles in Morocco and Algeria.

From the Paper
"There are deeper cultural clashes that are depicted in "Year of the Elephant", which is a collection of stories written and compiled by Leila Abouzeid. The "title story", if you will, shares the history of a woman who has been divorced and left with nothing to her name, essentially leaving her trapped within the confines of her village. She goes through a period of depression and recounts her life story, her involvement in the independence movement, her marriage to a young man who becomes seduced by materialism. Through all of these trials, she takes on the viewpoint that the colonization that held Morocco in a powerless position is not over, that it has simply been replaced by ambitious and greedy Moroccans wielding power over the disenfranchised--the poor and women. By presenting such a complex story, Abouzeid takes on several cultural issues- secular versus sacred, materialistic versus personal, the powerful overtaking the weak, and of course the classic struggle for the genders to attain equality and more specifically for women to achieve equal rights in a society that basically refuses to give them those rights."

From the Paper
"Research concerning substance abuse amongst lesbians often center on regional data. There are challenges that face substance abuse research when discussing the specific population of lesbians, however. The term 'lesbian' alone often causes confusion as it is somewhat ambiguous. In addition to this challenge, sexual orientation in research is self-reported, leading to errors, especially in subjects who may fear the stigma of being labeled as a lesbian."

Breaking Through the Glass Ceiling, 2007.
Questions what is stopping women from breaking through the corporate glass ceilings.

Abstract
Forty years ago women in "high places" virtually didn't exist. Women physicians and lawyers, for example, were so rare that finding one caused comment and sometimes consternation. That is no longer true, of course, and leaders agree that the glass ceiling is not as strong as it once was. This paper shows that women have entered all areas of business and make up 50% of management positions, yet few women are in positions of leadership. Naturally, everybody wonders why women, in spite of their struggles, don't seem to be reaching the top. Many people argue that discrimination is the cause of women's failure to break through the glass ceiling, but this paper argues that discrimination, although still present, is not the main source of the problem.

"A good mentor helps to establish contacts, develops networking, uncovers job opportunities, gives appropriate guidance, and acts as cheerleader, coach, and critic, but allows autonomy and independence at the same time. In fact, it may be an advantage for a woman to have a male mentor. A man can give insight into how a man thinks and makes decisions. Not that women should think like men, but they do need to understand how men think in order to communicate with them better. A well-connected mentor is important for any rising executive. A mentor can explain the political structure and offer guidance for effective maneuvering."

Same-sex Marriages, 2007.
A discussion on the legal acceptance of same-sex marriages.
1,007 words (approx. 4.0 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 35.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper introduces the topic of same-sex marriage. It continues to discuss the official laws of New York State vs. the "law of the people" relating to same-sex marriage. It explains that the law of the people does indeed exist and often supercedes the laws of a state or nation. It analyzes the bitter battle going on in the U.S. today regarding same-sex marriage and the law. The author concludes with a personal subjective opinion on the matter.
From the Paper
"In some cases, same-sex partners marry even if the law does not condone their union in their state. Recently, a Presbyterian minister faces a trial by her church because she officiated over same-sex unions. Historically, it has been religious organizations, particularly the Catholic Church, who have been so valiantly opposed to same-sex marriage. Another author notes, "The most outspoken and consistently negative response to proposals that the state recognize same-sex marriage has come from the Catholic Church" (Pope). However, the Catholic Church does not rule over all the people, and in general, society has become more accepting of gays in the past few decades. Thus, archaic laws may remain on the books, but the law of the people may swing to support gay marriage in the near future."

Abstract
In this article, the writer explains that female genital mutilation (FGM), still common in parts of Africa, is condemned by most people as a serious violation of human rights and gender discrimination. The writer notes that some communities consider it a harmless cultural rite whose dangers are needlessly exaggerated by outsiders. This essay discusses the topic of FGM in detail by tracing its background and explaining different types of FGM. The writer looks at where and why it is currently practiced and discusses its physical and psychological effects. The writer also examines the alternate point of view that dismisses concerns about FGM as exaggerated and cultural arrogance.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"The psychological effects of FGM are much more difficult to investigate scientifically than its physical effects. The negative psychological effects could include feelings of trauma, anxiety, terror, humiliation, and betrayal that may lead to long-term behavioral characteristics such as docility, feelings of incompleteness, anxiety and depression. However, not all psychological effects of FGM are negative, particularly in places where the practice is part of the ancient culture of the people. In fact, in such societies, women who have not undergone the essential 'rite of initiation' may suffer from psychological problems due to fear of rejection by the society and feelings of inferiority. Those women who have undergone FGM experience feelings of empowerment and fulfillment."

Walt Whitman, 2005.

Abstract
This paper takes a look at Walt Whitman's poetry containing ambiguous and bisexual references. The paper discusses how criticism of such references are silly and offensive in today's world. The paper further discusses how Whitman has virtually become a poster boy for the gay community because of his willingness to explore unconventional sexual identities and predilections.
From the Paper
"Whitman has nearly become a poster boy for the gay community because of his willingness to explore unconventional sexual identities and predilections. Not only in his poetry but in his personal life, Whitman did not avow heterosexuality as the only possible or acceptable means of love. His verse celebrates the essence of love and of human social contact. Whitman's views on friendship and romance were unrestrictive and the poet didn't buy into divisions based on gender, race, or class. Whitman was an abolitionist in pre-Civil War America, a labor advocate when the Industrial Revolution was just getting underway, and a proponent of the sexual revolution a century before it was acceptable, let alone "cool" to be gay."

Gay Marriage, 2007.
An argumentative essay on the legality of gay marriages, based on Aristotelian thought.
1,347 words (approx. 5.4 pages), 8 sources, MLA, $ 45.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This essay examines the issue of gay marriages from the three basic forms of reasoning established by Aristotle--ethos (emotional rationales), pathos (rationales based on moral authority), and logos (based on logical reasoning). The writer argues that all aspects of Aristotelian thought can be seen as rationally favoring the establishment of gay marriage as a civil right. The paper concludes that arguments in each of the three primary areas of Aristotle's rational thinking--emotional, moral authority, and logical--demonstrate the benefits to be gained and the moral coherence of such unions.
From the Paper
"The first of these is perhaps the most controversial, most frequently used, and yet least reasoned: an emotional appeal regarding the requisites for marriage in our society as "one man, one woman" or some similar catchphrase. The opposing arguments in this category center on the "sanctity of marriage" as a tradition that is ordained by a higher power (that is to say, higher than the government) as a sacred union between a man and a woman. Emotional appeals to preserve the traditional status of such unions revolve around this argument that the way things have "always" been; i.e., marriage between a man and a woman, ought to continue to be the way things are."

Abstract
This paper takes a look at gay-marriage. The paper reports how some of the opponents believe that the right to marry should be given only to heterosexuals, as heterosexual couples are the only couples capable of raising a healthy family. The paper further discusses the pros and cons of same-sex marriage as well as the nature of laws regarding same-sex marriage and whether such laws should be state or federal in nature.
From the Paper
"The opponents also believe that the right to marry should be given only to heterosexuals, as heterosexual couples are the only couples capable of raising a healthy family. They also argue that the gay marriage issue, if decided in the favor of the gay marriage proponents, will lead to even greater social degradation and acceptance of what they believe is an abominable life style, against nature and god. (Bentley 17) More moderate opponents believe that civil unions are appropriate to give gay couples all the rights and privileges of marriage without it infringing on the rights of heterosexuals and the culture.
The two apposing views of same-sex marriage are often seen as vocal minorities, as apposed to majorities of any whole. "

Abstract
The paper investigates the differences between men and women as it relates to sexual harassment. The literature indicates that there are definite differences related to the reporting of sexual harassment as it relates to men and women. The literature suggests that the perceptions of gender roles play a major part in determining whether or not victims (male or female) report sexual harassment. The paper examines how women who report harassment are often viewed as troublemakers and men who report harassment are viewed as effeminate.

Chapter III: Theoretical Framework

From the Paper
"Sexual Harassment has long been associated with poor work performance and poor academic performance. The impact that sexual harassment has on its victims can be monumental. This is why reporting sexual harassment is so important. Over the years there has been a great deal of research conducted related to the factors that influence a person's decision to report sexual harassment. Most of this existing literature is related specifically to the factors that influence a women's decision to report sexual harassment. However in recent years there has been an increase in the number of men that report sexual harassment."

The 'Buddy Picture' Genre, 2006.
A look at the homosexual and the homosocial relationships in the film genre of the 'buddy picture'.
2,082 words (approx. 8.3 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 65.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses how according to Michael Davis, American popular culture has always reflected a common "insecurity" about masculinity "at the global and local level." The paper further discusses how the films "Brokeback Mountain" and "High Fidelity," reflect this anxiety. The paper classifies both these films as 'buddy films'.
From the Paper
"In classifying both of these films as "buddy film" genres, it is important to remember exactly what a film genre is constituted by--film genres are usually defined by various formulaic structures (such as the outsider nature of the protagonists, alone tending sheep on a mountain, or alone in their superior musical tastes in a bubble-gum pop music listening world) and identifiable types of characters (such as the inarticulate man, the boisterous 'kid') who behave in recognizable patterns. Genres also have standard relationships, such as male bonding in active friendships forged over saving the world or saving music. Genres also often make use of various forms of syntax, such as the frequent joking typical of buddy films that conceal real emotion, rather than displays emotion, unlike the language deployed between men and women. Also, genres deploy similar filmic techniques such as the buddy film's use of communication through action, and make use of conventions, such as the use of the road or a physical problem as a medium for getting to know one another (Dirk, 2006) "

Abstract
This paper discusses the issue of treating boys and girls equally in the classroom. The paper reports that no significant differences were found in terms of their successes and failures. The paper goes on to discuss however, how boys and girls behave differently within the classroom.
From the Paper
"Voyles and Williams (2005) studied how fourth- through sixth-grade students in a technology course who were learning how to build and computer program Lego robots perceived their accomplishments. The authors found no significant differences in the girls' and boys' estimations of their day-to-day achievement or in attributions for their successes or failures. However, the girls' and boys' behavior during the course was significantly different from one another. The girls asked the teachers more questions and made fewer self-positive statements. They concluded that teachers need to be aware of such differences in gender and take them into consideration during their instruction."

Hispanic Assimilation, 2007.
A discussion on how Hispanic women are less likely to learn English and assimilate into American culture than Hispanic men.

Abstract
The paper examines how one of the central myths about Hispanic or Latino people in America is that they do not want to learn or speak English. The paper details how this myth has been disproved in many studies and statistical analyses. The paper explores how there is tension between the need and desire for assimilation and acceptance and the simultaneous pull towards the retention of culture and language; and the fear of loss of identity through the process of assimilation. The paper concludes that there is a gradual process of assimilation which is taking place among Hispanic women. However, there is also the pull towards cultural traditions, which has resulted in fewer Hispanic women than men learning English and assimilating into American culture.
From the Paper
"This also points to the fact that there will a strong tendency to retain cultural language and traditions among many of the Hispanic immigrants. Furthermore, In the U.S., more than 28 million people speak Spanish at home, and about half of these people speak English less than "very well." (Rodriguez, L.) The following is an excerpt from an interview with a Hispanic woman. From a report entitled Hispanic Trends, this interview serves to illustrate the important part that language plays in the retention of culture."
