Dismantling The Homosexual Panic Defense
1,053 words
Aaron McKinney was recently convicted of
second-degree murder for his role in the fatal
bludgeoning of Matthew Shepard on October 6 th of
last year. During the opening statements of his
trial, Mckinney's attorneys argued that a
homosexual advance from Shepard brought back a
traumatic childhood experience which triggered
"five minutes of emotional rage and chaos" (Cart
"Rests" 1). The claim invoked, which was
ultimately rejected by the judge presiding over
the case, is known as the "homosexual-pa...

Love And Affection Sexual Preference

The constitution states that all men are created
equal. If this is true, then why is there so much
controversy involving a person's sexual
preference? Martin Luther King said it best when
he stated that everyone has a dream. Why then rain
on someone's dream when all they want to do is
love each other? Homosexuals are fighting for what
they deserve: the freedom that every citizen has
the right to love whoever they want to. Let us
discuss what gay relationships are really all
about. The stereotype...

1. It seems that the Bible, Eastern Orthodox
Christians, Roman Catholics, the majority of
Protestants, and most major cultures are opposed
to gay marriages. Marriage, as defined by the Code
of Canon Law, is the matrimonial covenant, by

themselves a partnership of the whole of life and

One Man And One Woman Homosexual Couples

... ty is not normal behavior. Homosexual
activists are asking us to normalize strange
behavior, even though, by definition, it just
can't be done. And we are being asked to believe
that same-sex marriages will bring every group in
society closer together. Ah yes, and we will all
go off into the sunset with birds singing, with no
more wars and no more hatred, because homosexual
couples can now marry each other. Isn't the
traditional view of marriage religious in nature?
And if so, doesn't the re...

Year Old Girl Child Molestation
2,259 words
"If the occurrence of rape were audible, its
decibel level equal to its frequency, it would
overpower our days and nights, interrupt our
meals, our bedtime stories, howl behind our
love-making, an insistent jackhammer of distress.
We would demand an end to it. And if we failed to
locate its source, we would condemn the whole
structure. We would refuse to live under such
conditions. " Women have grown to accept, not
without resentment though, the male-dominated
atmosphere of the world. Because of...

Book Was Written Picture Of Dorian Gray
3,943 words
The soul is thought to be an immaterial entity
coexisting with our bodies which is credited with
the faculties of thought, action, and emotion. It
is the part of our body which is believed to live
on after the body dies. In Oscar Wilde's, The
Picture of Dorian Gray, the main character, Dorian
Gray, destroys the innocence of his soul and
becomes corrupt. He becomes corrupt by failing to
live a life of virtue but of sin. The main reason
for his transformation can be attributed mostly to
a portrait...

Essay, David And Jonathan: Camaraderie Or
Homosexuality Love is truly the emotion that the
masses claim to feel; yet few seem to know.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau claims To love and be loved
will be the greatest event in our lives. This may
in fact be true, but uniquely, love is also
perhaps the most greatly examined and scrutinized
of all emotions in todays society. It does seem
appropriate then, that we do attempt to dissect
the relationships of the O...

Gay And Lesbian People With Aids

The community I chose to research is the Gay and
Lesbian community. I chose to look at this
community because, as I meet more and more people
in my life, I have found that I come into contact
with many Gay and Lesbian people, and to
understand their issues, would be beneficial to a
social worker. As Berkman and Zinberg (1997),
states, social workers are susceptible to
absorbing the explicit and implicit biases held by
mainstream society. I personally feel that the

Is it Gay Gene Homosexuality Is it Really a
Choice? Since the 1800 s, psychiatrists and
psychologists have concluded that homosexuality is
a mental disorder. They have believed it is
brought about by misguided upbringing and their
social environments. For instance, it was believed
that if the child was lacking a male figure in the
home, he would most likely be gay. Or that child
abuse can lead to lesbianism when the special
needs of a little girl are denied, ignored, or
exploited and the future ...

African Americans Human Beings
2,744 words
Homosexuality is being hotly debated today in
church and society. When the case is made for the
legitimacy of same-sex love, critics rush in with
three main defenses. (1) It is contrary to nature.
(2) It is condemned in Scripture. (3) Its
acceptance would ruin society. The most
interesting thing about these three arguments is
that they have been used in the past to defend
what is now universally regarded as evil. In
American history, slavery, segregation, and the
denial of the vote to women all ...

Saint Thomas Aquinas Theory Of Natural
1,534 words
Saint Thomas Aquinas, as a philosopher, wrote
several works that justified Christianity in a
philosophical context, taking cue on Aristotle's
old writings. Naturally, Aquinas took up on the
Church's " ultra-conservative" views on
sexuality and worked to rationalize them through
his own theory of natural law. Aquinas argues
against any form of sex where the intention to
produce children is not involved. He explains this
through his theory of natural law, where sex is
purely for the purp...

the Defense of Marriage Act, a bill proposed by
Republican Bob Barr of Georgia in order to
prohibit the marriage of gay and lesbian couples.
(CWA) Although this bill cannot be called
unconstitutional, by forbidding the marriage of
same-sex couples the government is taking a stand

portrayed in the novel, Moby-Dick, was used many
times over the 135 chapters. Ishmael s encounters
with Queequeg, and their subsequent marriage
challenges the controversial lines of male
identity in the mid-nineteenth-century.
Controversial lines were in fact crossed many
times in this book, and Moby-Dick critics express
deep concern in the way Melville uses Queequeg as
a vessel to explore homosexuality and push it
along with underlying tones throughout ...
