1,057 words
There are many reasons why people argue for and
against sex education being a set curriculum in
our school systems, but not many people look at
the facts of the issue before deciding that sex
education is not right. The plain truth is that
there has been a dramatic increase in the number
of teenagers that have become sexually active. The
age at which sexual intercourse first occurs is
becoming younger. According to Store and Default,
in 1996 17 % of girls and 38 % of boys admitted to
having sex ...

... or living a lie by hiding beneath the garments
of a prescribed morality, is contrary to natural
law. Homosexuals are not making each other, or
society, bad or worse by doing what comes
naturally to them. Surely, more harm has come from
forcing these moral lepers to try and be what they
are not. For example: A man knows he is gay but
gets married, trying to put on the airs of
acceptable social norms. He has three kids with a
wife who wants to spend the rest of her life with
him. Around the ti...

Our society is composed of homosexuals. We often
see them walking on the streets or maybe sitting
right next to us. However, do we really know what
are homosexuals? People have always been taught
that if a person is attracted of the same sex, he/
she is to be consider homosexual. Although the
definition is valid, there is still important
things we should know. As a matter of fact, the

of this would be Iago and Othello from the
Shakespeare play Othello. Othello is a trustworthy
and upstanding individual who has a slight problem
as far as spontaneity is concerned. Iago, on the
other hand, is deceptive and manipulative, but
Iago thinks things out thoroughly. Shakespeare
