Helsel and Marilyn Mochel, Journal of Transcultural Nursing, 2002, Vol. 13, No. 4For the Hmong Americans, the placenta has special significance for the soul in the afterlife. Western medical practices and Hmong American cultural perspectives can sometimes be at odds over the disposal of the placenta.7.Gender Is Powerful: The Long Reach of Feminism, Nancy MacLean, OAH Magazine of History, October 2006Readers of this article will gain a greater appreciation of the significance of the women's movement.

Its encouragement of and guidance for outing the secret is important, as the risk of letting things go too long is real.15.The Birds and the Bees and Curious Kids, Margaret Renkl, Parenting, June 2006Read about the best strategies for handling the kinds of scenarios that catch parents off guard about bodies, body parts, and sexual behavior, as well as how to-and not to-approach "the talk."16.What to Tell the Kids about Sex, Kay S. Hymowitz, The Public Interest, Fall 2003Sex education is a controversial subject. Sex education programs have recently morphed into comprehensive sexuality education programs.

Smith, and Susan Ehrhard, The Prevention Researcher, November 2004This paper investigates the relationship between teenage fatherhood and various indicators of deviant behavior.

In order for relationships to last, we cannot depend on retaining feelings of passionate love throughout the duration of the relationship.24.Pillow Talk, Nina Utne, Utne Reader, March/April 2006Stephen Levine is a writer of best sellers on death and dying.

Perspectives on Gender28.A Case for Angry Men and Happy Women, Beth Azar, Monitor on Psychology, April 2007People are faster at identifying anger on men's faces as well as seeing happiness on women's faces.

Research on the influence of genetics and hormones on the development of homosexuality is explored in this article. Scientific evidence suggests that there are multiple developmental pathways to homosexual orientations, including multiple biological influences.33.Children of Lesbian and Gay Parents, Charlotte J. Patterson, Current Directions in Psychological Science, October 2006Does parental sexual orientation affect child development?

Is there room for gay and lesbian anchors in broadcast news? This article explores the story of Thomas Roberts and other gay news personalities.UNIT 6: Sexual Health and Well-BeingUnit OverviewPart A.

Both of these behaviors increase the risk of transmitting HIV. Providing condoms and clean needles could slow the spread of HIV, but many prison officials are reluctant to make these available to prisoners.40.HIV Plan B, Justine Sharrock, Mother Jones, May/June 2008Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) treatment can prevent HIV infection in many people who are at-risk of becoming infected after a suspected or known exposure. PEP is FDA approved, but not always available to those who need it. High cost and lack of knowledge are among the reasons why some people may have limited access to it.41.HIV Apathy, Zach Patton, Governing, February 2007Many new drugs to combat HIV Disease have changed HIV from a terminal to a chronic condition that can be managed in some people infected with the virus. Partially as a result of new treatments available, some individuals engage in high risk behaviors that put them at risk for HIV infection.

Is this indicative of what has been called the pornification of society?46.Breeder Reaction, Elizabeth Weil, Mother Jones, July/August 2006The Constitution of the United States identifies the right to procreate as a fundamental human right. Yet there is almost no public policy in the United States regarding reproductive rights and access to reproductive technology. The provocative article discusses this thorny issue; and the results are thought provoking.47.The Sex Offender Next Door, Amy Engeler, Good Housekeeping, January 2006Megan's Law was passed in 1996, two years after the rape and murder of 7-year-old Megan. It requires sex offenders to register, so that information about their where-abouts can be available to the public, but states have much discretion on how this happens.

Cullen, NIJ Journal, December 2005Congress asked the National Institute of Justice to find out what schools are doing to prevent and respond to reports of sexual assault.
