For many, his material is judged as what some feminists would define as a “form of violence against women”, whose representations “eroticize male domination”, (Robin Ann Sheets, “Pornography, Fairytales and Feminism” 635), but for many readers of Sade’s work, once they see through the ‘smut’ and the erotica, there is often found by the reader an underlying message which is sometimes seen as radical, or one which was not elaborated further until many years later. These messages within his literature raise the question as to whether or not Sade was a “moral pornographer”, (Angela Carter, The Sadeian Woman 19). In her book, Angela Carter defines a moral pornographer as one who “uses pornographic material as part of the acceptance of the logic of a world of absolute sexual licence for all genders, and projects a model of the way such a world might work”, (19). When one reads Philosophy in the Boudoir, and applies this definition it can be seen that Sade as a moral pornographer campaigns for “absolute sexual licence” for all genders and it is in the illuminating of this campaign that Sade further argues for the interrelationship between sexual and political freedom. In turn this argument is seen to validate Sade’s call for a Utopian type republic where all men and women are free both sexually and socially.

As children grow some become linked to having certain characteristics and are stereotyped with those who they associate themselves with or how their home life is. Groups like politicians, those with tattoos, feminists, and senior citizens are among the most stereotyped people known. The stereotypes that go with these particular groups can be especially damaging. Through analyzing the stereotypes and the rhetorical language used to reinforce them, it is quite obvious to see the substantial negative effects from those stereotypes. “Language that reduces people or things to categories can induce an audience to accept a claim unthinkingly or to make snap judgments concerning groups of individuals about whom they know little” (Moore, 2007, p.122).
It has been said that the topic of paedophilia is far too disturbing to fit comfortably within a comic world, yet Hector engages in what can be perceived as paedophilic acts throughout the play. What is your view of the character and comic role of Hector in Alan Bennett’s ‘The History Boys’? “Paedophilia: Primary or exclusive sexual interest in prepubescent children.” 1 Paedophilia is a topic condemned by the wider population.

There are also the sexual enigmas of “broken wall, the burning roof and tower”. There are personifications: terrified and vague fingers, a helpless breast and an indifferent beak.

Because sexual abuse is such a disturbing incident, false accusations of sexual abuse have huge, if not shocking, consequences for families. There is a bit of controversy about false memory syndrome, on one side by those who believe that the memories are not true, and on the other side by those who say that people who have committed the sexual abuse acts are using false memory syndrome to question allegations against them. The effects of memories such as these rising to the surface, whether they are actual memories or not, is often devastating to formerly functional families. The article in question has taken on the view from the False Memory Society in which the accused has stated that the accusations are false. The article revolves around one daughter who is split on whether to believe her sister’s letter about her father sexual assaulting her when she was 2 or to believe that her father is innocent.

Divorce has become a sort of an epidemic in today’s society and poses a big threat to it. To give the love of both parents by a single parent is a difficult task, though not impossible.
