32	Homophobia in Registered Nurses Berry, Matthew 01 January 2018 (has links) Homophobia plays a significant role in the treatment of individuals who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT). The purpose of this study is to explore the presence of these types of negative attitudes as they present themselves in the nursing workforce. 520 registered nurses were contacted via email to partake in a survey assessing homophobic attitudes and perceptions regarding nursing care of LGBT persons. A total of 27 registered nurses responded and the resulting data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. A majority of registered nurses were female (89.3%), greater than 40 years of age (75%), white (75%), heterosexual (96.4%), and Christian (67.9%) with a Bachelor’s degree or less (57.1%). Homophobia scores averaged 27 on a scale from 12-60, higher scores translating to greater homophobia levels. This value is on the lower end of the scale, which interprets to lower levels of homophobia among the participants. While some of these scores did show the existence of negative attitudes toward LGBT individuals among participants, further investigation is needed with a larger, more representative sample. As a result, it is difficult to determine whether LGBT relations are improving with registered nurses. Nursing GLBT Homosexual Sexual Orientation Homophobia Attitudes Other Nursing

Nosso interesse principal consistiu em levantar e explicar os temas recorrentes e as posições políticas e ideológicas sustentadas por aquele jornal a respeito destes temas. A teoria da mídia radical alternativa foi o principal aporte teórico para a abordagem do objeto de estudo. Dentre os principais desenvolvimentos da pesquisa, percebemos que o Jornal do Nuances expressa os (e resulta dos) impasses políticos, no movimento homossexual brasileiro, decorrentes da crescente visibilidade pública alcançada pelos indivíduos identificados com as designações apresentadas acima. Com seus temas e posições, o referido meio de comunicação faz a louvação da “bicha bafona” em detrimento do “gay classe média”. / The aim of the study is to explain the political and ideological positions sustained by the Jornal do Nuances, a communication medium produced, since 1998, by a NGO devoted to the defense of the human rights for gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transvestites, and transsexuals living in the city of Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The study was oriented by the theory of the alternative/radical media. It was concluded that the Jornal do Nuances expresses the political impasses existing in the Brazilian homosexual movement as a whole, which are a result of the growing visibility achieved by the above mentioned individuals. With its polemical themes and political positions, the referred journal celebrates and defends the “bicha bafona” at the expenses of the “middle class gay”.

35	SYPHILIS AND AIDS: HISTORICAL AND SOCIAL COMPARISONS Parsonson, Ian Malcolm, kimg@deakin.edu.au January 1992 (has links) Drawing on the literatures of history, sociology, epidemiology, and microbiology, this thesis compares syphillis with human immunodeficiency virus, with special reference to the social and historical factors likely to be relevant to the control or eradication of acquired imune dificiency syndrom (AIDS). The sudden appearance of a new disease causing suffering and death in a community, engenders apprehension and fear which is often manifested as hysteria against, and vilification of, those who have the disease. This fear is greatly increased should the disease be sexually-transmitted. Syphilis in a venereal form, occured in Europe toward the end of the 15th Century. Initially it was an acute, fulminating disease which rapidly spread through Europe and Asia. Attempts to control the disease have gone through periods of either partial successes or massive failures and have ended in frustration for the authorities. When the syndrome of acquired immune deficiency (AIDS) was first reported, it was seen in Western countries in homosexual men. However, as non-homosexual community members and children became infected, it became apparent to authorities that a pandemic was accurring. Within a few years, the disease was identified worldwide. Isolation of the virus (HIV-1), and development of test for detection of carriers, plus restoration of clean blood and blood-product supplies, have reassured the community to some extent. The history of syphilis shows that neither the epidemiological medical, nor the economic political approaches to disease control work, although there are positive aspects resulting from both. It is social responses that will offer the most hope in the long term for the control of AIDS and other sexually-transmitted diseases. syphilis sexually transmitted diseases Europe Asia 15th Century homosexual non-homosexual (HIV-1)
36	Levitikus 18 en 20 in die homoseksualiteitsdebat : 'n hermeneutiese perspektief (Afrikaans) Swart, Jacobus Abraham 25 August 2008 (has links) AFRIKAANSAan die begin van die 21e eeu vorm homoseksualiteit wêreldwyd een van die mees aktuele en uitdagende vraagstukke. Gelowiges en kerke worstel met kwessies soos homoseksuele huwelike, homoseksuele ampsdraers en of die praktisering van ’n homoseksuele oriëntasie aanvaarbaar is. Die doel van hierdie navorsing is om die problematiek en aktualiteit rondom homoseksualiteit aan te toon. Die belangrikste historiese asook natuur- en geesteswetenskaplike insigte oor homoseksualiteit word ook belig. Ten diepste handel die debat oor homoseksualiteit oor die vraag: Hoe moet ’n mens die Bybel interpreteer? Die bepaalde hermeneutiese sleutel wat ’n eksegeet gebruik om tekste soos dié in Levitikus te ontsluit, bepaal sy of haar verstaan van hierdie tekste. ’n Eksegetiese en hermeneutiese analise van hierdie tekste dui daarop dat beide Levitikus 18:22 en Levitikus 20:13 nie in die hedendaagse teologiese debatte oor homoseksualiteit eenvoudig direk eweredig aangewend kan word om die seksuele oriëntasie van homoseksualiteit op hierdie Bybelse gronde af te wys nie. ENGLISH Worldwide homosexuality currently forms one of the most challenging and contentious issues. Churches are struggling with questions about homosexual marriage, the ordination of homosexual clergy and office-bearers as well as the acceptability of acting on a homosexual orientation. The aim of this research is to shed light on the different problem areas that surrounds homosexuality and show why it is so topical. The most important insights about homosexuality from history as well as modern science, are also discussed. The homosexuality debate centres around the question: How should one interpret the Bible? This study confirms that the hermeneutical key an exegete uses to unlock texts like those in Leviticus determines his or her understanding of these texts. The exegetical and hermeneutical analysis of these texts makes it clear that neither Leviticus 18:22 nor Leviticus 20:13 can simply be applied directly in the current theological debate. / Dissertation (MA)--University of Pretoria, 2008. / Biblical and Religious Studies / unrestricted Lesbian Homofobie Homosexual clergy Ampsdraers Heteroseksisme Homophilia Homoseksueel Levitikus 20:13 Homophobia Homosexualism Homoseksuele Homoerotiek Homofilie Homoseksualisme Levitikus 18:22 Seksualiteit Seksuele oriëntasie Huwelike Homoseksuele Lesbies Gay Homosexuality Homoseksualiteit Homosexual Homoeroticism Heterosexism Sexual orientation Sexuality Homosexual marriage UCTD
