Sexuality quiz answer

I chose the articles  " Attitudes and beliefs about homosexuality and same-sex marriage among a sample of South African students" and " Children having children: race innocence and sexuality education, " these articles both drew my attention, because one dealt with how  homosexuality was dealt with in another country while the other dealt with young adult girls or teenagers were having children due to the lack of knowledge on sex. The methods used for homosexuality article were using more than 100 undergraduate college students to answer a survey of eighteen questions to see how they felt about homosexuals and same sex marriage. The survey had statements to agree or disagree with, that also was worded in a strong emotion provoking way. The survey hit subjects that included the government's "thoughts" and how moral it was to be in a same sex marriage. What I predicted for the outcome of the survey's word choice seemed to be the result, many believed that it was wrong to allow for homosexuals to socially acceptable and have the same things such as a family or get married as heterosexuals do. I believe that the way that the questions were formed brought out the more religious and conservative nature of people due to the way that the statements in the survey were made.

The second article involved a more indepth study of how much sexual education their children should receive during school. This study took more than a year to complete with the interviews that were conducted with seventeen different people in variety of positions ranging from administrators to teachers to parents who participated in the debate for how the schools should educate their children on sex. The study took such a long time, because some of the interviews took half an hour while others were three hours. Most of the questions circulated over the 1990 debate of how much and what the content of the sexual education the children will receive in the future. The notes taken from this were mostly verbatim, so that the study would be  more credible. It was found that African American teenage girls were more likely to become pregnant due to the lack of education and how segregated the areas were. The places where the girls grew up were more impoverished areas where teen pregnancies were common. This study was conducted through an interviewing process and the data collected was from a recorder and verbatim notes.
