An investigation of disabled women's perceptions of HIV and AIDS and aspects of sex and sexuality in three South African provincesBasson, Melanie 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA (Psychology))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT:A lack of research on disabled women and HIV and AIDS within the South African context has been identified by various authors. The present research is a qualitative investigation into the lived experience of seventeen disabled South African women. Their knowledge of and attitudes towards HIV and AIDS and sex and sexuality, their lived experience with regards to these issues, as well as to sexual abuse, rape and violence, and their access to HIV related health care services is explored in the present study. Semi-structured questionnaires were employed. Content analysis revealed that most participants knew of HIV and of ways of HIV transmission, and slightly fewer of them knew where to access HIV and AIDS related health services. The vast majority of participants reported that they saw no difference between sexual practices and sexuality of disabled- compared to non-disabled people. Misperceptions of others’ with regard to the sexuality and sexual practices of disabled people were identified as the main barriers to disabled women’s equal access to HIV and AIDS related health services, and to their freedom of choice and expression in terms of sex and sexuality. Almost all of the women had been subjected to rape, sexual abuse and violence. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: ‘n Tekort aan navorsing oor gestremde vroue en HIV en VIGS binne die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks is deur verskeie outeurs geïdentifiseer. Die huidige navorsing is ‘n kwalitatiewe ondersoek na die lewenservarings van sewentien gestremde Suid-Afrikaanse vroue. Hulle kennis van, ervanrings rondom en houdings teenoor HIV en VIGS, seks en seksualiteit, seksuele mishandeling, verkragting en geweld, en kwaliteit van toegang tot HIV en VIGS-verwante gesondheidsdienste word in hierdie studie ondersoek. Semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude is met die vroue gevoer, en inhoudsanalise is toegepas. Bevindinge sluit in dat die meeste vroue van HIV en van oordragsmetodes bewus was. ‘n Effe kleiner groep van deelnemers was bewus van presies waar om toegang tot HIV en VIGS-verwante gesondheidsdienste te verkry. Die oorgrote meerderheid van die vroue het geen verskil gesien tussen die seksuele praktyke en seksualiteit van gestremde en nie-gestremde persone nie. Die wanopvattings van ander (nie-gestremdes) rakende seksuele praktyke en seksualiteit van gestremde persone is aangedui as die grootste struikelblok tot die vroue se gelyke toegang tot HIV en VIGS-verwante gesondheidsdienste, asook tot hulle vryheid van keuse en uitdrukking in terme van seksuele praktyke en seksualiteit. Bykans al die vroue in hierdie studie is al blootgestel aan verkragting, seksuele mishandeling en geweld.

Previous issue date: 2011-10-14 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / This work aims to understand beliefs, expectations and behaviors of women that
lived long-standing marital sexuality and moved to post-marital sex. It is a qualitative
research based on studies about gender, a concept formulated during the 70s in order to
enlighten normative speeches that depart from anatomical differences between male and
female to justify power inequalities between men and women.
Five semi-driven interviews were conducted, involving women ranging from 46
to 70 years, at least 2 years divorced, since marriages standing for at least 20 years.
Results showed interviewed women experiencing post-divorce new forms of sexual
relationship. And even when expectations included finding a future partner, these women
quite frequently indulged in sexual satisfaction by experiencing forms of relationship not
even imagined at the time when their mothers lived. These changes may benefit men and
women that by questioning beliefs and behaviors thought as typically masculine, become
more reflexive and flexible / Este trabalho teve como objetivo compreender as mudanças nas crenças,
expectativas e comportamentos de mulheres que viveram casamentos de longa duração e
passaram pela transição de uma sexualidade conjugal para uma sexualidade pós-conjugal.
Tratou-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa fundamentada nos estudos sobre gênero, conceito
formulado na década de 1970 para tornar conscientes os discursos normativos que
naturalizam as diferenças entre homens e mulheres, utilizando-se das características
anatômicas entre os sexos para justificar as desigualdades de poder entre eles.
Foram realizadas entrevistas semi-dirigidas com cinco mulheres entre 46 e 70
anos, divorciadas há mais de dois anos e que estiveram casadas por pelo menos vinte
anos. Os resultados mostraram que as mulheres entrevistadas estão experimentando
novas formas de relacionamento pós-separação. E mesmo quando as expectativas em
relação ao futuro incluem encontrar um companheiro, na maior parte das vezes, essas
mulheres desvinculam a satisfação sexual do apaixonamento e se permitem
experimentações nos relacionamentos sexuais inimagináveis no tempo de suas mães.
Estas transformações podem beneficiar homens e mulheres que, ao questionarem às
crenças e comportamentos que são tidos como tipicamente masculinos ou femininos, se
tornam mais reflexivos e flexíveis

Genderové aspekty body image a nespokojenosti s vlastním tělem u neklinické populace / Gender aspects of body image and body dissatisfaction in nonclinical populationProcházková, Jana January 2018 (has links)
This thesis deals with the topic of body image and bodily dissatisfaction with non-clinical population with a focus on gender aspects. It has two main parts - theoretical and empirical. The theoretical part focuses on the term body image as a psychological concept that is a component of self-concept. For that reason, there is a definition of the overall self-concept and the difference between the real self and the ideal self. This part of the thesis stresses out the theoretical basis of the term. An important part is a chapter describing factors influencing a development of the bodily self-concept that influences the development and extent of bodily dissatisfaction. I talk about the current western society and its high standards on a physical appearance for both men and women. The thesis then deals with possible consequences of this dissatisfaction on human behavior, again with respect to the gender differences. The thesis also mentions human sexuality that is related to one's relationship with their own body. In the end of the theoretical part there are some possibilities for measuring body image and bodily dissatisfaction outlined. The empirical part consists of a quantitative study called " Gender aspects of Body image and body dissatisfaction in nonclinical population", just like the whole...
