After this step was established, eight messages in approximately equal
length were developed. Each message contained six arguments that were either in
favor or against using animals for research purposes. Rational and emotional
were used in nature and strong and weak were used in quality. In the procedure
of the experiment, subjects participated in an experimental session that
included several tasks that were not directly related to the study. The first
test included a survey of the subjects' attitudes toward animal testing. After
this was completed, subjects re .....

Sex In The Net!
.... early age and it has become an addiction like smoking or drinking. Part of
the problem is that censorship laws are not enforced. Some newsagents will sell
a twelve year old, pornography, (legal age of 18) but will not sell them a
packet of cigarettes (legal age of 16 until June 1994). The obvious derivative
from this statement, is that fines and punishments for selling pornography to
underage persons, are not high enough. So why don't we raise them? The answer
to this question can be found on the screen of every computer in the world. The
Internet, or as one person put it, "The closest thing to true anarchy that has

Violence And Pornography
.... unstable minds?
According to Edward Donnerstein, a leading researcher in the pornography
field, ˙the relationship between sexually violent images in the media and
subsequent aggression and . . . callous attitudes towards women is much stonger
statistically than the relationship between smoking and cancer˙ (Itzin 22).
After considering the increase in rape and molestation, sexual harassment, and
other sex crimes over the last few decades, and also the corresponding increase
of business in the pornography industry, the link between violence and
pornogrpahy needs considerable study and examination. Once the evidence you
will encou .....

Pornography
.... well-adjusted human being would
recognize as horrible and disgusting. Much pornography is socially acceptable,
with few people actively speaking out against it.
Pornography can be bought at many "adult" or "adult novelty" shops. One
only has to listen to any popular local radio station after 8 P.M. to hear
strings of advertisements for local pornographic outlets. Television
advertisements are shown also, but not as often as on the radio. Pornography is
so socially acceptable in today's society, that it is protected by the same
amendment to the constitution that allows Pro-Life groups to protest abortion,

Sexism-Patriarchy
.... force today receive less of a paycheck for the same amount of hours
worked on the same jobs as men. This is reinforced by the low number of women
who have a high paying, high powered job. There are a significantly higher
number of women who have little or no power in decision making and earn a low
salary. The women that do get promoted are often the subjects of rumor and
remarks made in poor taste. Men just can't stand to see they're egos shattered
and so they lash out against the woman with authority. They demean her position
and make it seem less important or trivial. All of this does hurt female self-
esteem and is just .....

transformed herself into a mare, Poseidon changed himself into a stallion and
chased after Demeter. Today, the boys always fond of dating many girls who they
love. “From the male's point of view there simply aren't enough females to go
around with and so a male must compete for sexual success with other sex-seeking
males” (Hutchison,202) They will have sex quite a lot in a short time. In 20th
century, the youngsters are very open-minded to sex and love relationships.
When they like or fall in love with anybody, they will go on a date with their

home.
Since they had past relationships Demi felt that Michael would want to

-Constant brushing against another employee's body
-Demands for sex accompanied by threats of termination
-Demands for sex in return for preferential treatment
qualified as components of sexual harassment.(Redress for Success, page 75)
Soon after that women began to realize that they could be sexually harassed by
anybody, such as by employers, supervisors, co-workers, customers, or even by
subordinate employees.(Redress for Success, page 74) With this new
understanding that they deserved equal treatment as their male counterparts,
women began to hold men responsible .....

Should There Be Stricter Laws On Pornography?
.... issue of
pornography.
Despite the authors contrasting viewpoints, there are many similarities.
Brownmiller feels that pornography is the result of women's bodies being
dehumanized for pleasure. She also feels that pornography is commercially
advertising the female body being raped, tortured and mutilated. The commission
agrees and argues that this type of pornography should be censured to prevent
moral corruption. If this does not happen, children trained with pornography
will not be able to fall in love. Although Jacoby strongly agrees with the
first amendment, she also agrees that pornography can become a bigger threat to

Swinger's Not Just On Playgrounds Anymore
.... and Dawn's club. Their club is known as an ‘on-site'
club. This means that Dave and Dawn provide bedrooms for their members'
enjoyment.
"Ours is an on-premise club. We have bedrooms where sex does take place,
but only if it is consensual. We do not force our activities on anyone," Dave
said.
Dave adds that having sex is something most people associate with a
swing club, but often this is not true.
Bob McGinley, whose self-given title is the grandfather of swing,
believes many people have misconceptions about swinging. He says swinging
cannot be categorized as mate swapping or as group sex. In fact McGinley

Teens And Sex
.... and decided, on the spur of the moment, to engage in sexual
intercourse, then it is more likely that they have a condom if schools
distributed them. This sounds good in theory, but will it really work? If
schools distribute condoms, shouldn't they also teach the students how to use
them and teach them a little about sex (sex education in schools, another
controversial topic)?
The world certainly needs to try to decrease teenage pregnancies, STD's,
and H.I.V. infection. In an article from the New York Times, the United Nations
reports that women, especially sexually active teenage girls, have a higher rate
of H.I.V. .....
