Cultural Sexuality
Write a critical thinking and research paper on a contemporary issue involving a current Cultural Sexuality debate. Use your two course textbooks 1984 and Thinking for Yourself as well as at least four outside sources from your own research and focus on how the sources present the issue and if the sources are seeking to objectively inform the public of the issue or if they are seeking to persuade the public to think or act a certain way about this issue. Below is a list of example topics, but you are not limited to one of these topics.
Example Topics:
Sexuality in Advertising
Sexuality in Entertainment
LGBTQ Issues
Sex Education
Abstinence
Pornography
Masturbation
Prostitution
Monogamy vs Polygamy
Statutory Rape (legal age?)
Use relevant quotes from 1984 looking at the similarities and differences between our culture and society and the culture and society of the novel.
Also refer back to Chapters 10, 11, & 12 in Thinking for Yourself and discuss how well the sources incorporate Inductive Reasoning, Deductive Reasoning and Fallacies in Reasoning surrounding the issue.
