indicator of virginity. However, there are some

others who are born with a thin hymen that can

Interpretations of recent studies on violence and
pornography have yielded a wide range of theories
on this subject. Victor Cline asserts that there
is plenty of evidence showing pornography to be
harmful. He believes that it degrades women and
desensitizes males to sexual violence (Slife,
270). On the other side of the spectrum, F. M.
Christensen states that pornography has little
effect on a persons perception of reality and that
it has become a scap...

King Lear Original Text

favorite standard performance material, and more
recently (the past 100 years), have become very
popular to produce and present What allows for

Late Nineteenth Century One Hundred Years

Putting a Name to the Confusion A man who kissed
or embraced an intimate male friend in bed did not
worry about homosexual impulses because he did not

of touch, a kiss or an embrace was a pure gesture
of deep affection at least as much as it was an
act of sexual expression, says Anthony Rotundo,
attempting to define the boundaries between
romantic friendship and erotic love, in relation
to same gender friendships, in the late nineteenth

Same Sex Marriage In order to address this issue,
one must first define the concept or meaning of
marriage. However, this is a rather subjective
approach, because the way we define marriage
depends on our own views and interpretations. To
come straight to the point, I believe that there
is no difference between same sex and traditional
marriages regarding validity or moral
implications. One could argue that the bond
between man and woman is valid, since biologically
they are able to have a child...
