Content Requirements:

For this assignment, you must write a 5-paragraph essay that answers the following questions:

Paragraph 1:

Summarize the TED Talk including at least 3 details from the video.

Don’t forget to use citations for the video in your discussion.

  • Paragraph 2:
  • Define each of the three dimensions of human sexuality, using the textbook as your guide. Then, choose two dimensions that this video addresses and explain how each dimension is addressed using examples from the video.
  • Don’t forget to use citations for both the textbook and video in your discussion.
  • Paragraph 3:
  • What are two implications on or consequences of the content of the TED Talk on two of the following issues: sex, gender, society, or public health? (For example, if your TED Talk was about sex workers, what consequences might their work have on society? Or how might public health be influenced by the laws surrounding sex work?)

  • Don’t forget to use citations for both the video and the additional source in these discussions.
  • Paragraph 4:
  • How do the sexual health issues the video discussed relate to at least two of the following social institutions: health care, criminal justice, education, employment, voting and military? For example, if you described issues related to sex workers, how are sex workers treated within the criminal justice system? What are increased health care concerns? Remember that individuals within these groups or individuals that face these health concerns are diverse, how can we address the many issues faced without being overly simplistic? Be sure to use examples and evidence to support the impact that this health issue has within these institutions using additional information beyond the video (SLO 10).
  • Don’t forget to use citations for both the video and the additional source in these discussions.
  • Paragraph 5:
  • Now that you have described and analyzed the dimensions of sexuality and the impact of sexual health issues in relation to health and society, you will describe your personal values and beliefs about these issues. How has your opinion about these issues changed or stayed the same since doing this research (SLO 9).

    minutes
    Social psychologist and sex researcher Terri Conley thinks it’s high time
    we stop feeling guilty about enjoying casual sex—no matter what
    society says. In this entertaining talk, Conley interrogates three
    common myths about sexuality and gender and suggests a few new,
    guilt-free ways to think about our sex lives.

    Ugly History:

    Experiment
    5
    minutes
    Afflicting nearly 1 in 10 Americans, syphilis was ravaging the U.S. in the
    1930s. Many doctors believed syphilis affected Black and white
    patients differently, and the Public Health Service launched an
    experiment to investigate, recruiting 600 Black men to take part. But
    the study was centered on a lie: the men wouldn’t actually receive
    treatment. Susan Reverby details the Tuskegee Syphilis Study.

    In a funny talk with an urgent message, LZ Granderson points out the
    absurdity in the idea that there’s a “gay lifestyle,” much less a “gay
    agenda.” What’s actually on his agenda? Being a good partner — and
    being a good parent.

    15
    minutes
    “The free, online, mainstream pornography that teenagers are most
    likely to see is a completely terrible form of sex education,” says public
    health researcher Emily F. Rothman. She shares how her mission to
    end dating and sexual violence led her to create a pornography literacy
    program that helps teens learn about consent and respect — and
    invites them to think critically about sexually explicit media.

    Why do we crave love so much, even to the point that we would
    die for it? To learn more about our very real, very physical need
    for romantic love, Helen Fisher and her research team took MRIs
    of people in love — and people who had just been dumped.

    The Pleasure
    Principle: The
    Secret to a
    Better Sex Life
    10
    minutes
    It’s time, we, as women, take ownership of our pleasure, as it is
    the right of every human being. But doing that requires that we
    let go of shame, get to know our bodies, recognize that we are
    more “normal” than we think, and shift our attitudes about to
    sex.

    Sexuality
    11
    minutes
    Is women’s sexuality more complicated than men’s? Well, not really,
    no, says author Sarah Barmak. In this frank, eye-opening talk, she
    shows how a flawed understanding of the female body has shaped this
    discussion for centuries. She debunks some age-old myths (you’re
    welcome) and offers a richer definition of pleasure that gets closer to
    the simple truth about women’s sexuality.

    Why Kids
    Need to Learn
    about Gender
    and Sexuality
    8
    minutes
    Lindsay Amer is the creator of “Queer Kid Stuff,” an educational video
    series that breaks down complex ideas around gender and sexuality
    through songs and metaphors. By giving kids and their families a
    vocabulary to express themselves, Amer is helping to create more
    empathetic adults — and spreading a message of radical acceptance in
    a world where it’s sometimes dangerous to just be yourself. “I want
    kids to grow up and into themselves with pride for who they are and
    who they can be,” Amer says.

    Violence
    Against
    Women – It’s
    a Men’s Issue
    17
    minutes
    Domestic violence and sexual abuse are often called “women’s issues.”
    But in this bold, blunt talk, Jackson Katz points out that these are
    intrinsically men’s issues — and shows how these violent behaviors are
    tied to definitions of manhood. A clarion call for us all — women and
    men — to call out unacceptable behavior and be leaders of change.

    The Laws that
    Sex Workers
    Really Want
    18
    minutes
    Everyone has an opinion about how to legislate sex work (whether to
    legalize it, ban it or even tax it) … but what do workers themselves
    think would work best? Activist Juno Mac explains four legal models
    that are being used around the world and shows us the model that she
    believes will work best to keep sex workers safe and offer greater selfdetermination. “If you care about gender equality or poverty or
    migration or public health, then sex worker rights matter to you,” she
    says. “Make space for us in your movements.”

    minutes
    Love is a tool for revolutionary change and a path toward inclusivity
    and understanding for the LGBTQ+ community. Married activists Tiq
    and Kim Katrin Milan have imagined their marriage — as a transgender
    man and cis woman — a model of possibility for people of every kind.
    With infectious joy, Tiq and Kim question our misconceptions about
    who they might be and offer a vision of an inclusive, challenging love
    that grows day by day.

    Why do girls feel empowered to engage in sexual activity but not to
    enjoy it? For three years, author Peggy Orenstein interviewed girls
    ages 15 to 20 about their attitudes toward and experiences of sex. She
    discusses the pleasure that’s largely missing from their sexual
    encounters and calls on us to close the “orgasm gap” by talking
