Married Couples Sexual Intercourse
845 words
The study of sex and relationships from the past
has grown considerably and continues to raise more
questions for the future. It has been noted that
since the ancient times, sexual frequency declines
with age among "couples." In the book, "Sex and
Relationships, " by John P. Elia there is an
interesting analogy of the decline of sexual
frequency, "A decline in sexual frequency over the
course of a relationship and over the course of
ones lifetime is probably one of those "sure"
things in life - ...

Most sociologists define marriage as a socially
approved mating relationship with many variations
based on social norms. Although marriage is still
considered the norm, it has become an optional
lifestyle for greater numbers of people to
maintain non-marital households. One of the most
widespread lifestyle trends among non-marital
households is that of cohabitation. By definition
cohabitation is a living arrangement in which two
people who are not related and not married live
together and usuall...

Gay Rights To Marriage
2,017 words
My aunt, who lives in Missouri, has had a loving
partner for about four years. They are both
lesbians and want to get married someday when the
law allows. I asked them to send me a letter on
some of their thoughts on same-sex marriage. Out
of her four-page letter I pulled this reply out,
"If two people of the same sex choose to make a
life together I feel that they should have the
same rights as a man and women would have once
they are married, but the real kicker is... That a
man and women can ...

Homosexual Couples Heterosexual Couples

Should homosexual couples be allowed to adopt
children? The question concerning gay couples
adopting children has become major problem in our
society. This has become more of a political issue
than a moral issue. If the question is looked at
morally instead of politically then there would be
no question at all. Gay couples should be in no
way allowed to adopt children. There are several
reasons why gay couples should not be able to
adopt children. People look at this question from
the wrong stan...

Biology Research In Vitro Fertilization
2,054 words
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), is the procedure
whereby human babies are conceived, not in the
womb but in a test tube or a Petri dish. This
procedure has become one of the greatest
developments in the world of medical technology.
In Vitro Fertilization has given infertile couples
the chance to conceive and bear a child from a
full term of pregnancy. Without this procedure,
their infertility would render them childless.
There are many aspects of the IVF program that

not about my opinions, but about how others, who
are supposed Christians view this very same topic.

Is it right to tell a person or couple (who is a
perfect candidate to be a parent) that they are
not aloud to adopt because they have different
sexual preferences than a majority of the world?
Gay and lesbian couples should be aloud to adopt
children; they are just as capable of being good
parents as a heterosexual couple is. Thousands of
children in this country are without permanent
homes. These children suffer for months, to years,
within state foster care systems that lack
qualified foster p...

that marriage will empower their personal
relationships, nearly half of the experimental
partners who actually scorn traditional marriage
(and even gay commitment ceremonies) will
nonetheless get married. Why? For the financial
and legal benefits of marriage. And Stiers's study

Should gay marriages be legal? Clearly we as a
nation are undecided on this issue. 36 states have
passed legislation banning gay marriages, yet the
state of Vermont recently passed a law that allows
homosexual couples the right to participate in
civil unions. Some other states are also debating
whether or not to allow these couples to marry.
Unfortunately, the dispute has left the United
States homosexual community in an awkward
position. There are some people who think that gay

citizens in the state of Vermont are now permitted

issue during the last two decades, extending its
polemics beyond from societal to political level.
The majority of gay and lesbian communities fight

reviews, one of the most explosive political

provocative issues emerging before American
courts. If same-sex marriage is legalized, it

Thurgood Marshall was only months away from

suffered an indignity that today seems not just
outrageous but almost incomprehensible. He and his
wife had found their dream house in a Virginia
suburb of Washington, D. C. , but could not
lawfully live together in that state: he was black
and she was Asian. Fortunately for the Marshalls,
