Young women's sexual agency in the transition to adulthood

Pearson, Jennifer Darlene 11 September 2012 (has links)
Young women’s sexual attitudes, experiences, and sense of self develop within multiple social contexts, including the schools in which they spend so much of their time, their romantic and sexual relationships, and a larger normative climate of expectations and beliefs about sexuality. Girls may struggle to develop a healthy view of their sexuality in the face of prevailing sexual beliefs that in many ways deny girls’ sexual desire and define female sexuality as passive and vulnerable. Despite these negative messages, however, many girls do develop positive attitudes about their sexuality, feeling entitled to sexual pleasure and safety. This study explores how young women develop this sense of sexual agency during adolescence and the transition to adulthood. Using longitudinal data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, I place adolescent sexual development in a social context, by considering the role of schools and early sexual relationships in young women’s developing sexual agency. Additionally, I consider the consequences of girls’ sexual attitudes and first sexual experiences not only for their sexual health but for their later sexual relationships as well. Finally, I consider how young women’s experience of sexual agency may be connected to another manifestation of gender inequality in relationships - housework. Findings suggest that girls’ attitudes toward sex and contraception are related to their sexual relationships in adulthood: girls who see sex as having negative consequences - either for their social relationships, their sense of self, or their future - are less likely to experience sexual agency in their adult relationships. Results also suggest that schools may play contradictory roles in girls’ sexual empowerment, as girls who do well in school were more confident about their ability to use contraception but were also more likely to associate sex with guilt and shame. Additionally, schools provide a peer context for the development of sexual attitudes. Finally, results suggest that explanations for gender inequality in housework are less relevant for sexual behavior, though women and men who are committed to equality in their relationships are likely to be more egalitarian in both housework and sex. / text

Sexualita pacientek po prosté a radikální hysterektomii pro zhoubné nebo nezhoubné gynekologické onemocnění / Sexuality of patients after simple and radical hysterectomy for bening or malignant gynaecologic disease

Vrzáčková, Petra January 2013 (has links)
Background: Cervical carcinoma is frequently diagnosis of young, sexually active women. Radical hysterectomy, as a basic therapeutic modality of early stages of cervical cancer, has very positive oncogynaecologic results. On the opposite site it has it's significant morbidity including bladder and rectal dysfunctions, lymphedemas, and deterioration in patient's sexual life. Methods: Data of forty one patients undergoing radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer were used for analysis, as well as data of forty nine patients undergoing simple hysterectomy for benign gynacologic disease and fifty three healthy controls Participants filled out sexual function and quality of life questionnaires before surgery and three and six months postoperatively. Results: The most important finding was statistically significant worsening in objective arousal in cervical cancer patients (p = 0,041). Also decrease in libido and higher frequency of dyspareunia was registered. Patients undergoing simple hysterectomy showed decreasing trend in sexual dysfunctions, mainly in severe dyspareunia. Conclusions: Radical hysterectomy for cervical carcinoma has a risk of arousal disorder, libido decrease and worsening of dyspareunia. Psychosexual counselling decreases frequency of early postoperative sexual dysfunctions.

The protagonist in The Journey to the West is named Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong is born with supernatural powers and is always up to no good. As punishment for his crimes against the Heaven, Sun Wukong must take a journey to India to help the monk Tripitaka, in order to retrieve Buddhist scriptures back to China. Throughout the journey Sun Wukong and the pilgrims will go through eightyone calamities. The pilgrimage transforms Sun Wukong into becoming a better man. This paper applies Sigmund Freud’s psychosexual development to Sun Wukong to understand his actions and personality and why it changes for the better during The Journey to the West. Sun Wukong develops a fixation to always pleasure himself through eating in the early stages of his life. Later Sun Wukong finds his phallus, the Golden Rod, to conquer, imitating his first father figure, the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor tries to execute Sun Wukong for disobeying his laws, but fails. Therefore, Sun Wukong believes that strong people are above the law. The only one that is strong enough to punish him is Buddha by putting Sun Wukong under the FivePhase Mountain. After five hundred years under the mountain, Sun Wukong is assigned by Guanyin to protect Tripitaka during the pilgrimage. Sun Wukong finds a father figure in Tripitaka and a mother figure in Guanyin. Sun Wukong imitates Tripitaka’s kind nature by not using his phallus, the Golden Rod, to conquer. Instead Sun Wukong uses the Golden Rod to do good merits and not hurt humans.

La sexualité des agresseurs sexuels de femmes : sont-ils tous obsédés par le sexe?

Langevin, Stéphanie 06 1900 (has links)
Une revue des modèles explicatifs de l’agression sexuelle (développementaux, typologiques, processus de passage à l’acte) permet de mettre en évidence la place centrale occupée par la déviance et l’hypersexualité dans les études portant sur les agresseurs sexuels. L’étude présentée dans ce mémoire investigue la sexualité des agresseurs sexuels de femmes adultes extrafamiliaux sous ses facettes déviantes et non-déviantes afin d’évaluer l’hétérogénéité des styles de vie sexuelle des violeurs. Les caractéristiques psychosexuelles et délictuelles de 160 violeurs incarcérés au Québec (Canada) ont été investiguées. Une analyse de classe latente, suivie d’une analyse factorielle, ont permis d’identifier trois styles de vie sexuelle distincts : le Déviant Internalisé (DI), le Sans Problèmes Sexuels (SPS), et l’Hypersexuel Déviant (HD). Les résultats suggèrent que les DI sont caractérisées par une insatisfaction sexuelle, la déviance sexuelle, ainsi que par la pauvreté de leur vie sexuelle. Les SPS sont caractérisés par une absence de déviance sexuelle et d’hypersexualité. Leurs distorsions cognitives, plutôt que leur style de vie sexuelle, semblent favoriser leur passage à l’acte. Finalement, les agresseurs HD sont caractérisés par l’hypersexualité, de même que par leur déviance sexuelle, lesquels favorisent leurs comportements sexuellement coercitifs. Les implications cliniques et théoriques seront discutées. / A review of the models of sexual offending (developmental, typological, and offending processes) sheds light on the role of sexual deviance and hypersexuality in sexual offending. Consequently, the aim of the study was to investigate the deviant and nondeviant sexuality of extrafamilial sexual aggressors against women in order to evaluate the heterogeneity of their sexual lifestyles. Psychosexual and crime-related characteristics of 160 extrafamilial sexual aggressors against women incarcerated in Quebec (Canada) were analyzed. Latent class analysis, followed by a factor analysis results in the identification of hree distinct sexual lifestyles: Internalized Deviant (ID), No Sexual Problem (NSP), and Hypersexual Deviant (HD). ID aggressors were characterized by sexual dissatisfaction, sexual deviance, and a bland sexual life. NSP aggressors were characterized by the absence of sexual deviance or hypersexuality; their cognitive distortions, rather than their sexual lifestyles, appear to be the basis for their sexual crimes. Finally, HD aggressors were characterized by hypersexuality and sexual deviance, both of which may favour coercive sexual behaviours.

Understanding why male juveniles perpetrate: An exploratory study

O'Sullivan, Debbie Lee 01 January 2005 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to gain an understanding of why social workers believe a male juvenile would commit a sexual abuse act toward another child and how this juvenile should be understood within the social services system and society. Social workers believe interventions are needed once the abuse has occurred.
