Gay, Lesbian And Transgendered Society: A Race Of Its Own
[ send me this paper ]
16 pages in length. Sexual orientation is no longer a private matter. Instead, contemporary society has taken it upon itself to scrutinize, judge and condemn the most private part of an individual's existence and deem him or her unworthy of acceptance under traditional social dictates. The overwhelming intolerance inherently associated with homosexuality is akin to the overwhelming cultural intolerance experienced for centuries; with gays, lesbians and the transgendered community representing today's particular focus of social prejudice, one can readily argue that since the idea of race has to everything to do with a community of people, homosexuals have earned the right to call themselves a race.

Gays and Lesbians in the Military: The Moral and Ethical Impact of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" Policy
[ send me this paper ]
A 14 page examination of a very complex issue. The author asserts the military's approach is short-sited. The military must open its eyes and look to other professional arenas where the issue of homosexuality has taken a more visible stance. Despite the continued protest from those that oppose allowing alternate sexual orientation to surface in the military, the military is a place of employment and the same concerns which arise in regard to homosexual right emerge there just as they do among civilians. One's sexual orientation does not impact one's ability to do a job. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Gays/Lesbian Perception Within Minority Groups And Jewish Stereotypes Circa World War II
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Gay and lesbian members of minority groups receive the same level of disdain as they do from those outside their subpopulation. Indeed, one would expect gays and lesbians to be supported within their particular minority community, however, just because someone is Latino, black or Asian does not automatically mean he or she will embrace anymore social tolerance than anyone else. The ways in which Jews were stereotyped by the German people during the period before World War II are well documented by illustrating how at the time of World War I, totalitarianism was taking a stronghold upon Europe institutions, while the Great Depression proved to threaten the very character and destiny of Western civilization.

Gloria Anzaldua
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page research paper that discusses the fascinating career of this extraordinary writer. The life of Gloria Evangelina Anzaldua (1942-2004) was remarkable, as she was a "poet, thinker and activist," who death robbed the world far too soon of a vibrant intellect and a compelling writer (Oboler 296). Anzaldua will be remember as a feminist and also as a lesbian who wrote compelling about gay rights and argued persuasively for toleration and love. However, among her many accomplishments, her contribution to the "collective examination of the tenuous location of Latinas and Latinos within the contours" of American culture is perhaps where she will be remembered best.

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.
