Rectification of misconceptions
This document provides information about a programme to raise awareness of female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C). It discusses some common misconceptions around FGM/C, including that it is required by religion, helps women's health or increases fertility. However, FGM/C can actually cause physical and psychological problems, including bleeding, pain, infections and sexual issues. The document also notes that Spanish law punishes FGM/C with imprisonment and that traditions should not harm people.

Elder Abuse 101
1) Adult Protective Services (APS) is a state-mandated program that investigates reports of abuse, neglect, or exploitation of elderly adults aged 65 and older and dependent adults aged 18-64. APS receives over 110,000 reports annually in California.
2) County APS agencies are responsible for investigating reports and arranging services for at-risk adults. The Los Angeles County APS agency can be reached by phone for reports of abuse.
3) Most abusers of elderly victims are family or friends, and there are three main types - those who deliberately plot abuse, those whose abuse occurs by chance, and those who are overwhelmed caregivers.
FFCHS Slideshow
This document discusses organized stalking and electronic harassment of individuals. It describes how anyone can become a target and experience hostile treatment by strangers, home entries, job problems, and strained relationships. Symptoms of electronic harassment include sensations of burning, shocks, fatigue, and uncontrolled limb movements. The document shares stories of victims like Jesus Mendozza who has eye damage, and Stacey who has swelling and burning from implanted radiofrequency devices. The goal is to educate the public and officials on these emerging criminal activities.
trifold_PEAC
PEAC is a consortium committed to preventing neglect and abuse among the elderly in Yavapai County, Arizona. It educates the public, businesses, and organizations on recognizing signs of elder abuse and how to help prevent it. PEAC believes older residents deserve to feel safe and valued in their community. Elder abuse can take many forms, often inflicted by relatives, and is underreported. PEAC's mission is to protect and value the elderly through education and awareness of elder abuse issues and facilitating support services.
Gender Inequalities
The document discusses various gender inequalities related to employment and empowerment. It notes that a wage gap exists where women are often paid 30% lower than men for the same jobs in countries like India and 8% lower in China. In some countries, women also lack legal rights and protections - for example, women are banned from driving in Saudi Arabia and other Islamic countries. Violence against women, including domestic violence, honour killings, and female genital mutilation also persist in many parts of the world due to patriarchal social norms that restrict women's independence and rights over their own lives and bodies.
Domestic violence and law
Domestic violence is a pattern of behaviors used by one partner to control the other through intimidation and violence. It takes many forms, including physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. Domestic violence disproportionately affects women and can occur at any stage of life. While laws have been established to address domestic violence, they are often inadequate and fail to properly address the recurring nature of abuse or protect all members of households. Remedies are also limited and legal processes can be extremely delayed. Further reforms are needed to laws governing marriage, divorce, and domestic relationships to more effectively prevent domestic violence and support victims.

The Effects of Property Crime
Property crime involves theft of money or property without force against a victim. Common types are burglary, larceny, theft, arson, shoplifting, and vandalism. Property crime can have emotional, financial, and security impacts on victims through replacing stolen or damaged items, insurance costs, and installing security systems. Statistics show that males aged 16 to 24 and those in deprived areas are most at risk, with 65% of crimes occurring near the home and the offender known to the victim in a third of cases. Property crime also affects communities by decreasing safety and property prices if incidents increase frequently in an area.

The Basics of Incapacity and Guardianship
This document discusses guardianship and incapacity. It explains that a guardianship is necessary to make decisions for an incapacitated individual, or ward. There are two types of guardianship - over the person and over property. The process begins with filing a petition, then an examining committee assesses the ward's abilities and an attorney is appointed to represent the ward. If the court finds the individual incompetent, a guardian is appointed to make decisions and provide accounting of the ward. Contacting an attorney can help establish, defend or avoid the need for a guardianship.
The Effects of Crime on Individuals As Victims and Perpetrators
Victims of crime can experience a variety of emotional, psychological, and practical effects depending on factors such as the type and severity of the crime. In the short term, victims typically feel shocked, terrified, and anxious and may have nightmares or flashbacks. Over months, victims may become preoccupied with the crime and have relationship or trust issues. Untreated trauma can lead to long term issues like depression, substance abuse, or post-traumatic stress disorder. Crimes also have practical impacts like property damage, lost wages, and increased security costs, as well as financial impacts through medical bills or lost income. Children of incarcerated parents can feel a lack of control and stability.
Dowry Death In India Finalpptx
Dowry is a tradition in Indian marriages where the bride's family provides cash and gifts to the groom and his family. It began as a way to financially support women who did not work, but now often leads to extortion and violence against brides. Despite anti-dowry laws, the practice continues and thousands of women are killed each year by their in-laws over dowry disputes, usually through domestic violence or burning. Many families also abort female fetuses they cannot afford to dowry.

Domestic violence-1
Domestic violence is the willful intimidation, physical assault, battery, sexual assault, or other abusive behavior perpetrated by one intimate partner against another as part of a systematic pattern of power and control. It includes physical, psychological, sexual, and emotional abuse. Domestic violence is prevalent in every community regardless of demographics, often accompanied by controlling behavior, and can result in injury, trauma, or death.

Domestic violence
Domestic violence and abuse are used for one purpose only: to completly gain and maintain total control over you. An abuser doesn’t “play fair.” Abusers use fear, guilt, shame, and intimidation to wear you down and keep you under his or her thumb. Your abuser may also threaten you, hurt you, or hurt those around you.
Prevention and legislation against elderly abuse
Elder Abuse Laws
Both federal and state laws address elder abuse, neglect and exploitation, but state law is the primary source of sanctions, remedies and protections related to elder abuse. Several tribes also have codes that address elder abuse (see the Native Indigenous Elder Justice Initiative for information on tribal codes and other resources). This page provides a brief overview of the major areas of federal and state law related to services for elder abuse victims, crimes against older persons, and civil remedies for elder abuse, neglect and exploitation. For information on laws related to elder abuse and guardianship for each of the states, see the state law map.
Domestic violence handout
Domestic violence against women is a serious issue in Toronto. The UN defines it as any act that causes physical, sexual, or psychological harm to women. It can include physical, sexual, emotional, or financial abuse. The core cause is gender inequality and the belief that men are superior to women. Domestic violence occurs across all communities and many women stay with their abusers for the sake of their children or family. Public education, prevention programs, strong legal responses, and advocacy groups can help stop domestic violence by supporting victims and holding abusers accountable.

Physical violence against women
Bride burning is often a result of dowry demands not being met by the bride's family. To avoid having daughters and the financial burden of dowry, some families terminate female fetuses. While now illegal, dowry is still commonly practiced, and failure to meet dowry demands can result in violence and murder of the bride. Child marriage remains common in some areas and has negative health impacts on young brides. Together, these factors contribute to high dowry death rates in countries like India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh.

This document discusses female genital mutilation (FGM) and aims to educate families on why the practice is extremely harmful and against the law. It explains that FGM can cause infections, bleeding, problems with childbirth, and long-term health issues. While some families mistakenly believe FGM is required by religion or improves hygiene, the document states that major religions do not require it and it actually worsens hygiene and health. FGM is illegal and punishable by imprisonment in Spain and several other countries. Both men and women are encouraged to work to end this harmful tradition.Desmitificación justificaciones MGF Hombres (árabe)

7 reasons to end female genital mutilation
Over 200 million girls and women alive today have undergone female genital mutilation in 30 countries, and around 3 million girls are at risk of undergoing FGM each year, usually before the age of 15. FGM violates human rights and can lead to both immediate complications like severe pain, bleeding, infections, and even death, as well as long-term complications involving vaginal, menstrual, sexual health and childbirth difficulties. Organizations like Plan International are working to end FGM through awareness and advocacy efforts.

8. The LGBT Movement Health Issues - The Dangers of Anal Sex
This document discusses several health risks associated with homosexual behaviors like anal sex, including increased risk of disease transmission, physical damage to the anus and rectum, mental and emotional impacts, and conditions like "Gay Bowel Syndrome." It cites studies and medical sources linking anal sex to higher rates of various infections and diseases. The document argues that the body is not designed for anal intercourse and that it can damage tissues and weaken the immune system.
Wife Battering
This article discusses wife battering, which refers to repeated violent acts by husbands against wives with the intent to control them through fear and pain. It is a widespread problem that occurs across all societies and social classes. Common forms of abuse include slapping, beating with fists or objects, and burns. Factors that contribute to wife battering include the husband's personality and behavior (e.g. alcoholism), lack of mutual understanding between spouses, financial hardship, and patriarchal social norms that give men authority over women. Prevention requires empowering women, challenging social norms of male dominance, and encouraging non-violence between intimate partners through education, legal protections, and social support services.
Neighbourhood Houses working with men
This talk/workshop was presented at the Neighbourhood Houses Conference in George Town, Tasmania on 28th September 2017.
It was delivered by Glen Poole, Development Officer the Australian Men's Health Forum (AMHF) and focuses on the social determinants of men's health; the barriers that can prevent men accessing services and the common ingredients found in projects that engage with men effectively.
Engaging men in Neighbourhood Houses can sometimes require different approaches and ways of working. Some Neighbourhood Houses are looking to engage more men as service users or volunteers, and this session will look at how we may work to include more men in what we do. Glen will provide an overview of some of the key social issues than men and boys face and outline the common practices of male-friendly services, based on national and international research and best practice.
Glen Poole is the Development Officer for the Australian Men’s Health Forum, the peak body for male health in Australia focusing on the social issues that shape men and boys’ health and wellbeing. He has 20 years experience working with men and boys in the UK and Australia and is founder of the Stop Male Suicide project
Geriatric sex
Sexual activity in older adults can provide health benefits like improved cardiovascular health, better management of stress and pain, and increased quality of life. However, older adults face many barriers to sexual activity like physical changes, medical issues, lack of knowledge, and social stigma. Addressing these barriers and educating older adults about the benefits of sexuality can help them maintain intimacy and experience positive health outcomes. A study that treated sexual dysfunctions in older adults found improvements in general health, psychological well-being, and hormone levels for both partners.
some debate shit about abortion 3
1) The document discusses arguments made for why abortion should not be legalized in Malaysia. It summarizes the key points made by several speakers.

Male infertility
This document provides information about male infertility from the Department of Urology Education. It defines infertility as the inability to reproduce, distinguishing it from impotence. Approximately 10% of couples are affected by infertility, with 1/3 of cases attributable to male factors alone, such as abnormalities, disorders of sperm production, or ejaculatory issues. Risk factors for male infertility include infections, genetic conditions, environmental exposures, lifestyle factors like smoking, and anatomical abnormalities. Diagnosis involves medical history and seeing a specialist if a couple tries unsuccessfully to conceive for over a year through unprotected intercourse.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Does Over-Masturbation Contribute to Chronic Prostatitis.pptx

Rectification of misconceptions held by men
- 1. PROGRAMME TO RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION/CUTTING Rectification of misconceptions held by men Physical problems: Bleeding, pain, infections, damage to the vagina, infertility, problems during childbirth, death… Psychosocial problems: fear, post-traumatic stress… Sexual problems: anorgasmia, lack of sexual de- sire, pain during intercourse… Men may experience relationship problems, de- pression, alcoholism, sexually transmitted infection, difficulty having satisfactory intercourse. Twitter: @DemusaOrg Email: gisdmu@demusa.org Web: www.demusa.org What does the law say about genital mutilation? The Spanish Criminal Code punishes FGM with a 6 to 12 year prison sen- tence for grievous bodily harm, even if the minor consents to it being per- formed. Organic law 11/2003.Art. 149.2 What are the health-related consequences of genital mutilation?
- 2. It is believed that genital mutilation... But actually genital mutilation... “It’s my custom, it’s my tradition” Traditions that harm the people we love we must be stopped for their good and we should only keep up traditions that benefit humankind and the community. “Our religion says we must do it” No religious scripts refer to this practice.There are many Islamic countries where it is not performed. “Female and male circumcision are the same thing” The extent of cutting and the related medical complications are very seri- ous for women and cause irreparable damage to their health. “Cutting is good for women’s and girls’ health” Far from being good for their health, cutting can seriously harm their health: bleeding, fear, problems giving birth… “Men prefer to marry women who have been cut” Not all men want to marry a woman who has been cut. In fact, it can cause problems for her partner's health. “Cutting increases the man's pleas- ure” The pleasure experienced during sex also occurs as a response to us stim- ulating our partner, so the woman’s lack of pleasure will make it less pleas- urable for her partner. “Cutting increases the woman's pleasure” The clitoris is an essential part of a woman’s sexuality, so removing it de- creases the pleasure she will feel. “It protects women’s virginity and vir- tue” Virginity does not depend on cutting, but rather on educating girls and boys in egalitarian values that promote it. “The genitalia are cleaner if they are cut” Cutting leaves the female genital organs unprotected and can lead to seri- ous infections in both women and men. “The clitoris grows until it becomes a penis and covers the vagina” The clitoris does not grow to the size of a penis.
