Representations
The document discusses various issues surrounding the representation of different groups in TV drama, including age, race, gender, class, disability, and regional identity. It provides examples of common stereotypes used to portray each group, such as rebellious teens or forgetful old people to represent age; criminal or intelligent stereotypes for different races/ethnicities; clothing and possessions used to indicate class; emphasis on beauty, relationships and emotions for women versus strength and independence for men in terms of gender; people with disabilities sometimes being bullied or looked down upon; and regional stereotypes like Scots loving the outdoors or drinking for identity.
Sexuality
This document discusses various topics related to human sexuality including: definitions of sexuality, influences on sexuality like gender and culture, categories of sexual orientation, stereotypes associated with gender roles, relationship dynamics, virginity and abstinence, masturbation, fantasy and role-playing, criticism of how some activities are portrayed, and the impact of disability on sexuality. Key influences mentioned are gender, physicality, religion, family, and cultural norms. A wide range of human sexual behaviors and experiences are covered.
Gender
Gender refers to the psychological sense of maleness or femaleness related to one's culture or society, whereas sex refers to biological attributes. Gender development involves learning gender roles and stereotypes from a young age through socialization. Gender identity forms between ages 2-3 and involves identifying as male or female, while gender constancy develops at ages 6-7 with the understanding that gender is permanent. Gender stereotyping can be positive or negative, but is inherently harmful as it reduces individuals to narrow roles and leads to making assumptions about people based on their gender.
Understanding Gender and Body Image
The document discusses understanding gender and puberty. It defines key terms like sex, gender identity, gender expression and gender roles. It also outlines some of the emotional, physical and social changes that occur during puberty like mood swings, peer pressure and seeking independence. The document also discusses body image, noting it reflects how one feels about their body and appearance. It outlines different aspects of body image including perceptual, affective, cognitive and behavioral. Positive and negative body images are defined.
Sex And Gender, Chapter 11
The document discusses various topics related to stress, including:
1. Cognitive appraisal theories of stress proposed by Richard Lazarus which emphasize the role of perception and evaluation in the stress response.
2. Hans Selye's general adaptation syndrome model of the body's nonspecific response to stressors.
3. Factors that can moderate the stress response like predictability, control, and social support.
4. Unhealthy and healthy coping strategies for dealing with stress.
Gender stereotypes
This document defines key terms like stereotype, gender, masculine and feminine. It then lists stereotypical masculine traits such as independent, aggressive, and competitive and stereotypical feminine traits such as emotional, passive, and graceful. The document provides bibliographic references to conclude.
Gender and Sex
The document discusses the differences between sex and gender. Sex refers to biological attributes that distinguish males and females, such as reproductive organs and secondary sex characteristics. Gender refers to cultural attributes that arise from biological sex differences, such as gender roles, behaviors, and styles of dress. The document then examines gender differences in various societies, including divisions of labor between males and females, as well as cultural rules around sexual behavior and taboos such as incest. Possible explanations for gender norms, such as compatibility with childcare responsibilities, are also explored.
Gender and Sex
This document discusses gender and sex differences from multiple perspectives. It defines gender and sex, and notes there is a difference between the two. Gender roles are learned behaviors influenced by both nature and nurture. Studies show atypical gender roles in males are influenced more by environment, while atypical roles in females show more heritability. Children are rewarded for gender-typical behaviors starting at a young age. Homosexuality may be linked to left-handedness, older siblings, and gender atypical behaviors as a child. Treatment for gender identity disorder in children aims to address psychological issues without changing sexual identity.

Representation of sexuality
This document discusses stereotypes of heterosexuality, homosexuality, and how media representation of LGBT individuals has changed over time. It notes that historically, homosexuality was viewed negatively and often pathologized in media and society. However, more recent legislation supporting same-sex marriage and changing social attitudes have led to more positive and nuanced portrayals of LGBT characters and relationships in television shows. While stereotypes still exist, mainstream media coverage has increasingly moved to "symbolically annihilate" homophobia rather than LGBT individuals themselves.

This document discusses how sexuality is portrayed in popular media and how it influences cultural norms. It notes that different cultures and time periods have varying definitions of appropriate sexual behaviors. While media often focuses on certain types of content for entertainment purposes, it rarely addresses risks or responsibilities. The document advocates understanding diversity in human sexuality and that what is considered "normal" is shaped by cultural context rather than being inherently defined.
Gender equity movement in schools
This document discusses gender equity in schools. It covers topics like understanding gender, gender stereotypes, gender discrimination, the impact of gender discrimination, gender identity, gender division of labor, and violence related to gender. It also outlines activities and a training design to promote gender equality and reduce gender discrimination and stereotypes in schools.
Crime victimization and disabilities 2012
This document discusses crime victimization and disabilities. Some key points:
1) People with disabilities experience higher rates of violent crime than those without disabilities. Females with disabilities in particular face higher victimization rates.
2) People with developmental disabilities are much more likely to be victims of crimes like abuse. They are also more likely to experience repeated victimization.
3) Barriers like inaccessible shelters, lack of accommodations, and societal attitudes make it less likely that those with disabilities will report crimes committed against them or access victim services.

Gender and sex,what is gender identity?what you mean gender expression?what is gender stereotyping?what is the difference between gender equity and gender equality?
strong6_ppt_ch05
Gender and gender roles can be complex topics with biological, social, and cultural components. Biologically, sex is determined by genetic or anatomical characteristics, while gender refers to social and cultural roles associated with being male or female. Gender identity develops from a combination of biological and environmental factors. Traditional Western views emphasized polar masculine and feminine traits and roles, but modern perspectives recognize more fluidity and diversity in gender expressions. Conditions like intersexuality or transgenderism also show that biological sex and gender identity do not always align.
Sexism Ethics
Sexism is unfair treatment or discrimination against people based on their sex or gender. It often stems from harmful gender stereotypes that see women as inferior. Throughout history, women have faced discrimination and been seen as witches or less capable. While sexism exists in many societies, the document notes it can be particularly problematic in Guatemala where women face wage gaps and judgment based on their appearance or culture. Several contributors reflect that sexism damages society by limiting women's opportunities and that change needs to start at home by teaching children respect regardless of gender.
Gender Identity
Gender identity disorder is a conflict between the gender a person identifies as and the gender he or she was physically born with. For example, a person
who identifies as a boy may actually feel and act like a girl. The person is
very uncomfortable with the gender she was born with and often feels as if she is 'trapped in her own body.'
Gender and identity
Young children are just beginning to develop their understanding of gender identity. The document discusses several key points: children see gender in rigid categories at first but become less influenced by biological factors over time; play activities and social interactions help shape a child's emerging gender identity; and research finds children tend to take on stereotypical gender roles in pretend play but become more flexible in adolescence.
Defining Gender and Sexuality
This document defines key terms around gender and sexuality, including sex, gender, gender identity, and sexual orientation. It discusses that while the traditional model views gender as binary and linked to sexuality, models like the Authentic Gender Model see these as more complex with multiple possibilities that may not match sex or sexuality. It addresses issues like transgender identity and experiences, as well as challenges like bullying faced by LGBT youth and efforts to create greater acceptance and support.
Gender Identity
Gender identity refers to a person's internal sense of their own gender, whether male, female, neither, or both. It is distinct from biological sex and gender roles. Gender identity is self-identified and involves both inherent and environmental factors. Gender roles refer to societal expectations of masculine and feminine characteristics and behaviors. There are various gender identities including cisgender, transgender, non-binary, and agender.
Sexism
This document discusses gender stereotypes and sexism. It outlines common stereotypes that exist about the traits, roles, physical characteristics, and cognitive abilities of both men and women. For example, it is commonly believed that women are emotional, helpful and kind, while men are active, self-confident and able to make decisions easily. The document also discusses how feminism aims to challenge these stereotypes and promote women's rights and equality. However, sexism and anti-feminist attitudes still persist and disadvantage women in many areas like university professorships, political office, and corporate leadership.
Media amber josh ollie
The document discusses various aspects of representation and stereotypes in media. It defines representation as how groups are portrayed, such as through stereotypes, and notes stereotypes are widely accepted generalizations that may not be accurate. It also discusses verisimilitude, or how realistic a TV show is, and how shows sometimes depict stereotypes but not all at once. The document then examines common ways gender, age, ethnicity, sexuality, class, physical ability, and regional identity are represented in media, with some representations being based on stereotypes while others strive for more realistic portrayals.
Sexual orientation and sexuality
The document defines key terms related to sexual orientation and gender identity. It describes sexual orientations including heterosexuality, bisexuality, pansexuality, asexuality, queer and definitions for gay and lesbian. It also defines gender identity, gender expression, transgender, gender transition and gender dysphoria. The document provides brief descriptions of each term.
Asexuality What it is -- Why it Matters
The document discusses asexuality, which is defined as a sexual orientation characterized by not experiencing sexual attraction. It provides an overview of asexuality and the asexual community, including definitions, common misconceptions, the history and growth of visibility and advocacy organizations, and limited research on the topic.
Chapter 11
This document discusses gender stratification and the distinction between sex and gender. It defines sex as the biological and physical differences between men and women, while gender refers to the social and cultural roles and identities associated with masculinity and femininity. The document then outlines various sociological perspectives on gender roles, including patriarchal religious views, biological views from ethnologists and sociobiologists, and gender inequality theories like functionalism and conflict theory. It also discusses gender socialization and discrimination women face in the business world.
Representation
The document discusses representations of gender and race in mainstream media. It notes that femininity is often associated with beauty, sexuality, emotion and body image while masculinity is associated with power, strength, lack of emotion and independence. It also discusses how feminism has aimed to reduce stereotypical portrayals of women in media which predominantly show slender women and shame those who don't fit that ideal. Representations of masculinity similarly promote independent stereotypes that can oppress men by preventing the expression of emotion. Race representations also impose restrictive values through stereotypical portrayals.

Gender and Society Prelim Lesson first year
1. The document discusses the differences between sex and gender. Sex refers to biological and physical differences between males and females, while gender is the socially constructed roles, behaviors, and expressions associated with women and men in a society.
2. Gender is a performance and something we do rather than something we are born with or have. It varies between societies and can change over time.
3. The document provides examples of how sex is defined biologically in terms of chromosomes, hormones, and reproductive organs, while gender is based on social and cultural norms around femininity and masculinity.
HEALTH 8 WEEK 1.pptx
This document provides an introduction to a module on gender and human sexuality. It aims to help students understand these concepts and enhance their decision-making skills to manage sexuality-related concerns. Key points covered include how knowledge of sexually transmitted infections is significant for one's sexuality and family health. Education on human sexuality can help students make intelligent decisions regarding sexual behaviors and maturity. The document outlines several lessons that will promote wholesome relationships and teach students to establish healthy behaviors.
Living as a Sexual Minority
The document discusses how being a sexual minority influences support and well-being. It finds that lack of support from social groups negatively impacts identity disclosure and mental health, while positive support reduces issues like substance abuse and suicide risk. Being a sexual minority affects facets of well-being like self-esteem but not sexual well-being. It concludes by calling for more research on transgender identities and relationships.
Health 8
This document provides an overview of a module on gender and human sexuality from a health education perspective. It discusses concepts like gender, human sexuality, and sexuality as important components of one's personality. It aims to help students understand these concepts and make intelligent decisions about sexual behaviors. Several activities are included to help students explore their self-identity and attitudes towards gender roles. Factors like family, culture, peers and media are noted as influencing sexual attitudes and behaviors. The document also mentions the concept of "double standard of morality" in the Philippines.

The workshop aims to provide basic knowledge of human sexuality to health practitioners to help address clients' sexual wellbeing and needs.
Human Sexuality
The document is from a PowerPoint presentation on human sexuality that covers several topics:
- It defines human sexuality and discusses how it is studied from various academic perspectives.
- It explores how values and critical thinking influence attitudes toward sexuality.
- It presents various historical, biological, evolutionary, sociological, and psychological perspectives on understanding human sexuality.
- It discusses perspectives from feminism, queer theory, and how multiple perspectives provide a richer understanding of human sexuality.
Lesbian slideshow
This document discusses the factors a young lesbian woman may face in coming out, including 5 stages of coming out (pre-coming out, coming out, role confusion, exploration, and the first relationship). It also addresses coming out to family (as a daughter and sister), children (as a parent), at work, and issues with religion/spirituality. Additionally, it examines femme vs butch identities and notes gaps in research about cultural differences, abuse/neglect, and coming out at different life stages.
Religion and gay males
This document discusses issues related to gay males and religion, including the history of conversion therapy, internalized shame, and loss of religion. It provides details on how conversion therapy used harmful techniques to try to change sexual orientation, and why some sought it out due to internalized homonegativity and being early in developing a gay identity. The document also explores how internalized shame correlates with relationship status and coming out. Finally, it addresses how some experience a loss of religion or spirituality due to religious condemnation of homosexuality.

Gender and sexuality
What’s the difference?
· Sex refers to a person’s biological status and is typically categorized as male, female, or intersex (i.e., atypical combinations of features that usually distinguish male from female). There are a number of indicators of biological sex, including sex chromosomes, gonads, internal reproductive organs, and external genitalia.
· Gender refers to the attitudes, feelings, and behaviors that a given culture associates with a person’s biological sex. Behavior that is compatible with cultural expectations is referred to as gender-normative; behaviors that are viewed as incompatible with these expectations constitute gender non-conformity.
· Sexual orientation refers to the sex of those to whom one is sexually and romantically attracted. Categories of sexual orientation typically have included attraction to members of one’s own sex (gay men or lesbians), attraction to members of the other sex (heterosexuals), and attraction to members of both sexes (bisexuals). While these categories continue to be widely used, research has suggested that sexual orientation does not always appear in such definable categories and instead occurs on a continuum (e.g., Kinsey, Pomeroy, Martin, & Gebhard, 1953; Klein, 1993; Klein, Sepekoff, & Wolff, 1985; Shiveley & DeCecco, 1977) In addition, some research indicates that sexual orientation is fluid for some people; this may be especially true for women (e.g., Diamond, 2007; Golden, 1987; Peplau & Garnets, 2000).

Hiv project
Gay men with HIV/AIDS often lack adequate social support networks. They face stigma and discrimination related to both their sexual orientation and HIV status. This can negatively impact their mental health and increase risky sexual behaviors. Developing community support programs that address cultural factors is important for improving disclosure of HIV status and reducing transmission risk among gay men.

This document summarizes a research study that investigated pro-social behavior across different age groups and genders in Pakistan. The study found no significant differences in pro-social behavior between younger and older participants or between males and females. The document suggests that widespread social, economic, and political ambiguities in recent decades have increased stress and insecurity in society, reducing individuals' willingness to engage in pro-social acts. It recommends community interventions, strengthening family relationships, and cultural changes to promote pro-social values in order to increase helping behavior.

The document discusses the advantages and challenges of an Ohio consortium that jointly addressed the prevention of intimate partner violence and sexual violence. Key advantages included increased efficiency by reducing duplicative meetings and documents, skill-building opportunities through shared learning across both fields, and expanded technical assistance, training and networking. Challenges included negotiating priorities, balancing workloads, and addressing differences between the fields. The consortium found the tandem approach ultimately strengthened primary prevention efforts.

Affirming Gender Diversity in MFT Practice poster
This document provides information on creating inclusive practices for transgender and gender nonconforming clients. It begins by noting the lack of research and literature on serving TGNC individuals, couples and families in marriage and family therapy. It emphasizes using accurate terminology, addressing personal biases, and making the therapy space safe and respectful for all genders. The document recommends understanding gender as a continuum rather than a binary, being mindful of language, and normalizing gender diversity and exploration.
The Role of Spirituality in Sexual Minority IdentityA. Jor.docx
The Role of Spirituality in Sexual Minority Identity
A. Jordan Wright and Suzanne Stern
Empire State College, State University of New York
Spirituality has been widely associated with positive well-being within the general population. Although
there is limited research on the impact of spirituality on sexual minority individuals, some evidence
suggests it is associated with positive psychological outcomes and contributes to the development of a
positive lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) identity. The present study aimed to elucidate the relationship
between spirituality, gender normative beliefs, and LGB identity development. It was hypothesized that
spirituality would be negatively associated with both heteronormative beliefs and attitudes and negative
sexual minority identity, and that heteronormativity would mediate the relationship between spirituality
and negative identity. Contrary to expectations, spirituality predicted greater heteronormativity and
greater negative identity. The association between spirituality and negative identity was fully mediated
by heteronormativity. Limitations and implications are discussed.
Keywords: homosexuality, bisexuality, spirituality, heteronormativity, gay identity
Within the general public, spirituality has been reliably con-
nected to numerous positive outcomes (Garfield, Isacco, & Sahker,
2013; Paranjape & Kaslow, 2010; Thoresen, 1999). It has been
found to promote resiliency and self-esteem (Haight, 1998; Kash-
dan & Nezlek, 2012), and predicts a greater ability to adapt and
cope with stressful situations (Gnanaprakash, 2013; Salas-Wright,
Olate, & Vaughn, 2013), including illness (Lo et al., 2010; Nelson
et al., 2009; Pagnini et al., 2011; Visser, Garssen, & Vingerhoets,
2010), exposure to violence (Benavides, 2012; Schneider & Feltey,
2009; E. A. Walker, 2000), psychological aggression (Austin &
Falconier, 2013), and substance abuse (Turner-Musa & Lipscomb,
2007). Further, spirituality is associated with personality traits that
are health-protective (Labbé & Fobes, 2010); it is also significantly
protective against adverse mental health outcomes, such as depres-
sion and anxiety (Bennett & Shepherd, 2013; Hourani et al., 2012;
Hsiao et al., 2012; Sorajjakool, Aja, Chilson, Ramirez-Johnson, &
Earll, 2008), and suicidal ideation (Henley, 2014; Kyle, 2013;
Meadows, Kaslow, Thompson, & Jurkovic, 2005).
While the research on the impact of spirituality on sexual
minorities is more limited, there is evidence that spiritual well-
being functions as a protective factor and a predictor of adjust-
ment. Greater spirituality has been associated with positive out-
comes such as increased self-esteem and identity affirmation,
lower internalized homophobia, and fewer feelings of alienation
(Lease, Horne, & Noffsinger-Frazier, 2005; Moleiro, Pinto, &
Freire, 2013; Tan, 2005), and with greater positive affect and
satisfaction with life (Harari, Glenwick, & Cecero, 2014). How-
ever, awareness within this popu.
Group work with Gay,Lesbian and Bisexual
Counseling gays, lesbian and bisexuals is like counseling other culturally different populations in that practitioners require culture-specific preparation.
As a social worker and as a human being we must make an effort to accurately understand the values, lifestyles, and cultural norms of gays, lesbians and bisexuals.
Sexual Orientation & Conflict
The document discusses definitions of homosexuality and bisexuality, as well as negative stereotypes, impacts, and conflicts faced by LGBTQ individuals. It then outlines the objectives, variables, tools, and results of a survey conducted in Kolkata, India on the relationship between intra-personal and inter-personal conflicts experienced by homosexual and bisexual individuals. The survey found that socioeconomic status, family support, societal awareness and norms significantly influence psychological conflicts. Resilience factors and implications for increasing social support and awareness are discussed.

Core member: sexual offender who is being supported back into society 4-7 volunteers: altruistic members of public who wish to assist offender Circle coordinator: professional with experience in the field Bello, R., Easie, J., Everall, A., Fothergill, H., Ludlow, E., Ward, S. and Wheeler, L.
- 3. Vulnerable Sex Offenders Vulnerable sex offenders include the elderly and intellectually disabled. Factors that play a part in reoffending include: Lack of relationship skills Poor impulse control Sexual naivety Substance abuse Unemployment Bello, R., Easie, J., Everall, A., Fothergill, H., Ludlow, E., Ward, S. and Wheeler, L.
- 4. Addressing these factors and incorporating them with treatments could prove beneficial Elderly tend to get treated different to other sex offenders in prison Elderly have less time to seek forgiveness from family and society Vulnerable Sex Offenders Bello, R., Easie, J., Everall, A., Fothergill, H., Ludlow, E., Ward, S. and Wheeler, L.

- 7. Volunteers Being part of a Circle is a big commitment. “Initially volunteered to aid their own career prospects” “desire to work with sex offenders” “many changed their views having completed a Circle” (Karstedt, Thomas, Thompson, 2014). “It sounded like it was doing some good, getting some positive results, their reoffending rate was low compared to the norm”. The weakness of the volunteer is that they might miss things that a professional would recognise. Bello, R., Easie, J., Everall, A., Fothergill, H., Ludlow, E., Ward, S. and Wheeler, L.
- 8. Recruiting more Volunteers www.charityjob.co.uk/Volunteer-Jobs www.volunteering.org.uk www.do-it.org.uk • These website allows Charities to upload vacancies for volunteers. • By doing this it will make the charity become more visible to people who may not of heard of ‘The Circles of Trust’. http://www.reachskills.org.uk • This website allows Charities to search for volunteers themselves. • This can be more beneficial for the charity as they can view specific volunteers in which would be suitable for the role.

- 11. The slippery slope workshop The Slippery Slope workshops are for those people who are on the 'Slippery Slope', and have either committed a sexual offence, are at risk of sexual offending, or re- offending. The group is run by the session leader with the help of the volunteers, who uses a psychotherapeutic method called Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor (PBSP). Bello, R., Easie, J., Everall, A., Fothergill, H., Ludlow, E., Ward, S. and Wheeler, L.
- 12. Format of the session The Format of the Slippery Slope Closed Group: Participants will attend for five individual days over a 12 month period, and each participant will have some structures (client sessions). Participants learn from their own structures, from playing roles for each other, and from witnessing other people's structures. Volunteers will be invited to join the group to ensure there are enough people to play the roles. There will be both men and women in the group. whilst most of the time will be spent doing structures (the deeper personal work that looks at the underlying issues that contribute to an individual's current behaviours), we will also spend two mornings looking at a more cognitive approach to managing inappropriate behaviour. Bello, R., Easie, J., Everall, A., Fothergill, H., Ludlow, E., Ward, S. and Wheeler, L.
- 13. Exchanging experiences: Best Practice Recommendation: The Safer Living Foundation volunteers experience the best practice of another charity of similar work Nacro, Unlock as well as the other circles of support in different areas of the country may be useful. It may greatly improve the volunteers experience and efficiency if they were to gain some of the experiences and training from these other charities volunteers. This is based on research showing the importance of social learning theory, observational learning and peer learning. Bello, R., Easie, J., Everall, A., Fothergill, H., Ludlow, E., Ward, S. and Wheeler, L.

- 16. Provide the public with knowledge:Positives: High levels of sexual offenders imprisoned Recidivism rates are low Negatives: Imprisonment rates are high. However, support levels after imprisonment are low. Imprisonment high due to more sexual offending? Need for public support and volunteering: Publicise the importance of the charity, and explain the statistics may not be reliable. Sexual offending is still a prominent issue in society. Bello, R., Easie, J., Everall, A., Fothergill, H., Ludlow, E., Ward, S. and Wheeler, L.
