Women were another vulnerable group because they were always paid at a lower rate than men. There was no safety net for people who fell into poverty other than resorting to the ‘workhouse’ which had been established to deal with cases of extreme poverty in Trade unions had little power as the Taff Vale Incident of 1901 showed and Friendly Societies could only provide a limited amount of help. Attitudes to poverty in the early 20th century were quite unsympathetic many politicians from both the Liberal and Conservative party felt that poverty came from personal laziness. Both parties had an attitude of “laissez-faire” i.e. non interference from the government.
If Chadwick did exaggerate and make the conditions sound even worse than they actually were, then his agenda was to persuade the government to change laws in order to improve health standards for factory workers and also to persuade workers to protest and become reformers. Flora Tristan (Doc 7), a French Socialist, wrote about the workers working twelve to fourteen hour days in a room with poor ventilation. A British medical journal (Doc 8) published in 1843 says that in Manchester the average age of a laborer when they died was 17, while laborers in rural districts lived well into their twenties and thirties. People that were not in the laboring class lived much longer on average as well. As the size and population of cities exploded, it was impossible to keep them clean and sufficient for the
More children are born in Britain today outside of marriage than in most other European countries. This has been linked to many explanations such as; poor education in sexual health and the lack of knowlege on different types of contraceptives. Nearly a quarter of children lived with only one parent (25%) last year and nine out of ten of these households were headed by mothers. Dennis and Erdos believe that is is down to most families being fatherless, meaning they automatically have poor health and lower educational attainment, however this is only one theory. Another main reason is the simple fact people are marrying later for many reasons, more because of the change in attitudes towards education and religion (seclurisation).
Body: Main point I: There are many reasons why female circumcision is done. First, it is a Rite of Passage from childhood to complete womanhood, who is chaste, pure, and ready for marriage. Families want their children to be successful and children themselves want to attain status. There is status to both the elder, who circumcises, and for the circumcised. Female circumcision for women is a way of purifying them of their masculinity.
Margaret founded many leagues and was the president of them.One of the leagues was the planned parenthood federation of America. The principal of this league was We hold that children should be concieved in love, born of mothers concous desire and only begotten under conditions which render possible the heritage of health. Margaret invested a lot of her time communicating to the general public to educate them about preventing unwanted pregnancies and planning a family.She wrote several books which had a nationwide impact in promoting birth control.Some of the books include Woman and the new age and The pivot of civilisation. Margaret search for the magic pill that can be taken like asprin came to an end when a sponsor Katrien McCornick made the research possible and the first oral contraceptive Enoid was
Also, some adults do not end up getting married, almost 19 million Americans (Benokraitis, n.d., 3). Furthermore, children under the age of 18 living with two married parents went from 77 percent to 67 percent (Benokraitis, n.d, 3). That finding shows the increase of divorce among Americans. The article, “The Changing Landscape of Family”, states that women are spending less time with their children than before and there is a decrease in the number of children per family. This is partially because women have started to go back to work and the economy in the present day is not very stable so supporting a bigger family is not easily done.
Every day more people die in America than are born. Any increases in population since 1972 have been due to immigration.2 The sociological perils we face are not those of population explosion, but population reduction. The Population Research Institute agrees, and concluded, “Our long-term problem is not too many children, but too few children.”3 The legalization of abortion resulted in a drastic reduction of the number of children in this country. By 1980 there were 6.5 million fewer school-age children in America than just a decade earlier. This required the closing of nine-thousand elementary schools.4 Legalized abortion has resulted in over 46 million fewer taxpayers in America to support the elderly.
The article “No Babies” by Russell Shorto discusses how the population in Europe is drastically decreasing because the low birth rate and higher death rate. He discusses how the birth to death rate is very unbalanced as well, which is a result of the declining population. European culture is feared be lost due to the fact that the majority of the European population is mainly made up of older generations and few younger. In the article Population “7 Billion”, Robert Kunzig discusses how the population worldwide is increasing drastically. He discusses that although the population is growing, our planet may not have all the resources it needs to accommodate the growing population.
Although the act was usually but not always the choice of the woman, abortion was illegal and to end pregnancy was considered to be murder. In the two decades before abortion was legal in America, it's been estimated that about one million women per year underwent illegal abortions. Because these illegal procedures were performed by the woman or someone else who was not medically trained to perform the procedure, women died. In my opinion trying to make abortion illegal is pointless because the women will resort to drastic measures and other means to end the unwanted birth. Here we are in this so-called world of freedom but when we exercise that freedom, we become ridiculed for making a choice.
They look at all factors such as cunnilingus, female ejaculation and the G-spot to see if there is any evidence to support what some of their theories suggest and whether the female orgasm doe have any factors of being important in creating human life. Many will argue over this topic but we should take a look at some studies that have tried to look deeper into a woman’s vagina to really understand the mechanics of how it all works and what reasoning there may be for women to have sexual pleasure at all.
