Adoption has been around for many years, but only recently has the question of gay adoption risen. There are many orphans in the world, but not enough families or parents to take them in. There aren’t that many families who can and will adopt children, whether it’s because they can’t support them, they have children of their own, or they just don’t want children. The end result is still an overabundance of orphaned children in need of a loving family. […]

I am writing about homophobia and I’m going to explain how they were treated, specifically in the 1900s. Homophobia is and was a huge debate within our world. Many people absolutely go against it, saying that it is not natural. At the same time, what is normal? In the 1900s, homophobia was a wicked time. Most people back then denounced homosexuals.

Transphobic bullying occurs more often than cisgender or Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual (LGB) bullying in school settings. When being […]

The first adoption law passed in Texas was in 1850 and it required the adoption process to be filed with the county clerk.

These changes have been occurring due to a shortage in adoption. Same sex families aspire to […]

The one major problem in American society – besides of course, the surprising amounts of murder and rape, domestic abuse, an influx of both legal and illegal immigrants, rising poverty levels, and the lack of quality health care – is homosexuality.

Gender roles often known as a sex role is a social role encompassing a range of societal […]
One of the most overlooked questions of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is the gender of the creature – due to the fact that many readers assume that the monster is a male – because it is never explicitly expressed through Victor Frankenstein’s intentions.

However, similar to President Trump’s attempts to erase transgender people […]

Before I get too far I want to talk about the LGBT acronym.

As each one of us enter this world, society likes to begin stamping gender roles on us the second we are removed from our mother’s womb. Baby boys are swaddled into blue blankets and baby girls in pink respectively. As we grow, more gender stereotypes of how we are supposed to act are ingrained into our subconscious. For example, little boys are told not to cry or show any emotion, while little girls are expected to be submissive and feminine. […]

Rights-based struggles have proved counterproductive in contexts of sexuality. The importance of rights, and more specifically, civil liberties, can be seen as the legal and political expression of our society. Philosophical notions of autonomy, self-fulfilment, and self expression, in terms of sexuality, have made privacy interests relevant to freedom of action and lifestyle, not merely to freedom from interference. [1] This essay focuses on rights and notions of ’liberty,’ in their most general sense, that being, non-interference by others with […]
Aestheticism dictates that life should be lived by an ideal of beauty and a movement embodied by the phrase of ‘art for art’s sake.’ There is perhaps no greater advocate of such beliefs as Oscar Wilde, and the characteristics of aestheticism run through much of his work, both plays and stories, particularly in the character of the dandy. It would be difficult to analyse any of Wilde’s work without considering his own personal life and consequently, almost impossible to analyse […]
