The “New Directions, New Hope for Sexuality: On the Cutting Edge of Sane Sex” Readings: As I note in the subtitle in the link to this article, this was the most interesting and controversial chapter in my book. It also answers most of the questions we saw in the pre-quiz we did at the beginning of the semester. While addressing HIV/AIDS in the context of sexual attitudes and behavior, for example, I look at risk and how sexual activities fit into our preoccupation with this idea. I also discuss the myth of monogamy, among others we often hear about sexuality. Condoms vs. abstinence is critiqued, along with metaphors like epidemics that are promoted as reality. The chapter ends on a note of hope. For the first response, critique the sexual health issue I discussed that you found most surprising or interesting, in a brief paragraph of 100-150 words. Then, in the second response, critique another sexual health issue I discussed that you found surprising or interesting, also in 100-150 words. Finally, in the third response, discuss what your hopes would be for sexuality in terms of what we might still need to discover about it, also in 100-150 words.
