Group Counseling For The HIV/AIDS Population
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The HIV/AIDS population faces considerably more challenges than other members of society, in that they have to struggle just to achieve a modicum of acceptance. Their societal counterparts, who are frequently ignorant to deeper issues surrounding the disease, often unknowingly make them feel inadequate and worthless when it comes their life choices. Incorporating group counseling as a means by which to overcome the not-so-invisible boundaries that intrude upon an individual's right to exist is a most effective way to address the inherent fear, isolation and depression associated with HIV/AIDS, as well as win back a person's sense of self. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Herve Guibert's "To The Friend : Who Did Not Save My Life"
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. The social and political implications of AIDS boils down to a matter of privacy, a point clearly addressed in Herve Guibert's "To The Friend : Who Did Not Save My Life." Clearly, a fine line exists between what the public needs to know and an individual's right to privacy. Guibert's implication is that it is obvious that there is no redeeming factor in knowing who is affected by AIDS and who is not, inasmuch as there is still no cure. It makes absolutely no sense to put people through the pain and suffering of exposing themselves to an already hostile community; by doing so, the HIV-infected person only stands to receive incessant persecution for something that cannot be helped at this point in time. No additional sources cited.

Homosexual Parenting: Pros & Cons
[ send me this paper ]
19 pages in length. People from all walks of life must endure social intolerance at one time or another; however, certain groups face prejudicial persecution on a regular basis. What is the answer for gays and lesbians who want to raise children beneath a homosexual umbrella that would bring a sense of peace and equity amidst the tenets of sexual discrimination? Many claim it is too much to hope for that social bias begin to wane in exchange for a more understanding and open-minded world, especially what lies at the foundation of all intolerance is a combination of fear and ignorance, an alliance that not only precludes the chance for security and peace but one that also encourages just the opposite. Understanding the extent to which more states allow homosexual parenting than those that do not is an important realization when examining which way the pendulum is currently swinging.

Homosexuality and Young Adult Literature
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page personal essay discusses homosexuality and the fact that it should be presented in young adult literature along with any other issue that will have an impact on a young person’s life. The author points out that there are people who think of it as a the most heinous of sins “against nature” and others who believe it is of no more relevance than the color of one’s eyes. And, of course, there are others who are convinced that they “aren’t bothered” by gays and lesbians but don’t understand why “they can’t just keep to themselves.” Each of these attitudes are attitudes which have evolved as the result of personal experience and belief systems, most of which were established before a person reached adulthood. What an adolescent or teen reads serves as an important component in shaping his or her beliefs. To deny that homosexuality exists r to declare it as a perversion or sin only serves to negate the existence of an entire group of people. No sources listed.
