Measures of Androgyny
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page literature review that examines the various ways of
measuring androgyny. In examining the methods of measurement we illustrate some
specific studies which have researched individual androgynous concerns. With each of
these studies it becomes more and more apparent that the most widely recognized
measuring scale is the Bem Sex-Role Inventory, which essentially defines the masculine
and feminine characteristics of an individual through the use of a questionnaire that uses
adjectives with which the subject can rate themselves. While there are other methods, and
while Bem’s inventory may not address all the issues of a particular study, the Bem
Sex-Role Inventory is the most widely implemented measurement device in regards to
androgyny. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Sadism And Masochism: A World In The Dark
[ send me this essay ]
6 pages in length. The term sets jaws on edge and causes people to avert their eyes away from the person who has the audacity to give voice to such an unconventional activity. It is considered so integral to fringe society that few people want to admit knowing many details for fear they will be labeled as being abnormal. The entire topic of sex, after all, is still taboo for a considerable portion of society, with people conversing about it in very finite social boundaries. When the discussion changes direction to incorporate sadism and masochism, however, the involuntary reaction many people have illustrates the extent to which sexual subcultures are not readily socially acceptable. Unconventionality notwithstanding, the S&M community represents a sexual subculture whereby the giving and receiving of pain is the primary focus, a concept that is both rich in history and quite prevalent in contemporary society. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

implemented in most schools, adolescent pregnancy and sexually
transmitted diseases (STDs) in America are still significant
problems. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
