Fetishism
... at,
touch, or smell during or preparing for the sexual act. In some cases just the
sight of the fetish could result in an orgasm.
The Freudian view of fetishes changed over the years. His early view
stated that fetishism was a result of some childhood fantasy or exposure that
resulted in the fetish but he later changed the view. Freud later theorized
that the fetish was a fear of castration on the part of the male. He believed
that the association with the penis to the female reproductive organ was a
reminder to men that castration is possible. This anxiety would cause the
fetishist to associate his or her se ...

The Effect Of Adoption
... birthmother. "Adoptees seldom are able to view their placement into adoption by the birthparents as anything other than total rejection. Adoptees, even at young ages grasp the concept that to be 'chosen' means first that one was 'un-chosen,' reinforcing adoptees' lowered self-concept."(2) The internalization of these feelings of rejection, can be very difficult for anyone to overcome, especially an adopted child.
Individual identity is usually derived from our natural parents. They give us a sense of who we are to be. For adoptees, this source of information is unavailable for them to draw information from. Inst ...

Homeless: What Has Been Done To Decrease The Problem?
... comes to the affairs of the people, it is the government who should
intervene. When I look at what the government has done with regard to the
homeless problem, I have to doubt that everything is being done to
eradicate it. The United Nations implemented a universal declaration of
human rights. Article 25 Section 1 of this declaration states:
Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the
health and well being of himself and of his family, including food,
clothing, housing, and medical care and necessary social services, and to
the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, ...

The Prevalent Issues Of Surrogate Parenting
... is the
husband's biological offspring- a child for whose existence both husband and
wife can feel responsible.
Surrogate parenting is highly controversial by its very nature.
Nevertheless, surrogate parenting is attracting wide spread attention as a
viable alternative for infertile couples intent on having a child. Contract
surrogacy is officially little more than ten years old, although surrogate
mothering is a practice that has been known since biblical times. In 1986 alone
500 babies had been born to mothers who gave them up to sperm donor fathers for
a fee, and the practice is growing rapidly.
For this reaso ...

Three Values Every Child Should Learn
... people. It is important to show respect to all people because it is difficult to communicate with others without showing them respect. People need to treat each other with respect and love. The Bible commands that a person treat others the way he wants to be treated. Children must be shown how to show respect to other people so they can receive that respect.
Another important value children learn from their parents is to be independent. Children who are not taught independence will have both social and emotional problems later in life. Every person needs to understand how important it is to be an individua ...

Performance Of Employees
... performance on a consistent basis. In this manner, it compensates the employee for a job well done, motivates them to achieve positive responses, and informs them of their overall performance.
Money is an essential part of a career and lifestyle. Without some form of income, one cannot pay his or her bills or take care of those they care for most. These needs fall within Maslow's primary levels of hierarchy. Motivation exists for money because money satisfies these basic needs. Because of this money is a good overall motivator, but its main role is to induce people to do the work for which they were initially hi ...

Child Abuse: Who's At Risk And The Outcomes?
... behavior. This paper will show that it is more than just race and social status that can determine whether or not certain children are at risk. It will also show that the outcomes for the victims are very similar.
Risk Factors
In the words of Gerbner, Ross, and Zigler (1980) "Malnourishment, sexual abuse, failure to feed and clothe a child, beating a child, torturing a child, withholding medical care from a child, allowing a child to live in a "deprived or depraved" environment, and keeping a child out of school have all been defined at various times and in various laws as "child abuse"(p. 82). The defini ...

Car Accidents And The Elderly
... of self-protection in their driving habits relative to mid-aged drivers (persons between the ages of 25 and 64 years). They not only reduce daily driving, avoid driving at night and during busy hours, and avoid driving on highways, but also drive at lower speeds (about 4 MPH slower) and carry fewer passengers (about 5% fewer).
“Despite their increased effort of self-protection in their driving habits, the elderly still show a higher risk of crash and injury than the mid-aged drivers”(Thrive Online. News Poll. 1999 ).
When the elderly adjust their driving habits, they consider the risks they face, but not t ...

Two Parents Or One?
... to
stick by those rules than single parents are (Curtin et al. 368).
Single parents are not able to show the same emotions as married couples
can, because the love between a mother and a father plays an important part in a
family. Children learn how to love from their parents, but if both parents are
not there to teach them how to love, their love might be somewhat one-sided
(Curtin et al. 371). Yes, single parents can show their love toward their
children, but they have no spouse to express love to. Children from single
parent families are therefore denied that learning experience of how a husband

College Fraternities
... As a matter of fact, fraternities have a long
tradition of high academic achievement, and most of our nation's presidents
were members of a Greek association.
According to Irving Klepper, the first fraternity (Phi Beta Kappa) was
founded for "social and literary purposes" at the College of William and Mary
in Williamsburg, Virginia on December 5th 1776. After half a century of
existence, it became and has since remained a scholarship honor society.
Throughout the nineteenth century, many new fraternities were founded, but none
of these were permanent. Then, in 1825, the Kappa Alpha Fraternity (now Kappa
Alp ...
