Abstract
This paper briefly summarizes and positively reviews Dr. Ruth Westheimer's book, "Dr. Ruth's Guide for Married Lovers", explaining that the book, while quite humorous at times, also unveils several fallacies about sex, explains the differences in the sexual drives in men and women, explains why the sexual drives differ, and offers suggestions on how individuals can improve their sex lives.
From the Paper
"In the next few chapters, Dr. Ruth discusses sexual fantasies, and honeymoons. Dr. Ruth believes fantasies are good, and healthy, allow for a person's mind to escape during sex, and helps individuals to relax and enjoy themselves. She then discusses honeymoons, but curiously, only honeymoons for those who are still virgins. She claims there are a good deal of married couples who are virgins when they get married, but it seems more likely, that there are a greater number of non-virgins. However, the chapter is helpful, for both virgins and non-virgins. She discusses the expectancies and problems with new relationships. The man may be overly excited, and the woman may have difficulty getting excited. She suggests patience and understanding from both sides, and reminds the reader, that sex does not have to hurt. Then in a humorous, but also shameless plug of her book, Dr. Ruth suggests giving, Dr. Ruths Guide for Married Lovers, to a newly married couple as the perfect wedding gift."

Abstract
It should come as no surprise that single women, whether they are unmarried, divorced, or widowed, live different lives than women who are married. Different, however, does not mean better or worse. Statistics demonstrate that women who are married live a longer average life than women who are not. Women who are married tend to have children earlier and more frequently than women who are not. Women who are married have traditionally held fewer jobs than women who are not. But, these are simply numbers and statistics. There are tangible differences between married and not-married women. It is this very set of differences which prompts this paper.

Abstract
The writer discusses five case studies and draws several conclusions about the complexity of human sexuality in a culturally structured relationship such as marriage. The paper explains that when choosing a spouse, thinking that the union is to last for life, women are succumbing to cultural norms and values that guide their behavior and their choices. The paper shows that no matter what culture a woman is from, she will have expectations that the marriage will prove to be a support unit in both a physical and an emotional way. The writer explains that sexual coercion and rape that typically occur in abusive relationships have a way of imprinting on the victim a sense of helplessness and hopelessness because they are characterized with fear and lack of control of the victim over her own body. The writer examines the psychological damage of this abuse and its relationship to other medical problems. The writer explains how in some cases, as in honor cultures, neither partner is aware of their choices due to a standard accepted way of dealing with marital difficulties. In conclusion, the writer proposes that education is the key to prevention of marital rape and sexual coercion.
From the Paper
"DeMaris states that even though other variables such as direct measures of the levels of testosterone and the levels of sexual coercion were not obtained, this study's results are relevant to the study of human sexuality in that they adequately address the issue of unrecognized marital rape. Levels of violence in a marriage that go beyond simple conflict of interests result in wife's fear of the husband's aggressive behavior, and are shown to be used as a mechanism to obtain sexual intercourse against the wife's free will. Such situations are proven to cause serious depressive symptoms that affect women's long-term mental health by denying her the control that any person should have over their life and their body (DeMaris, 1997)
"Another study by Langhinrichsen-Rohling and Monson, "Marital Rape: Is the crime taken seriously without co-occurring physical abuse?," responds to the inadequately addressed but prevalent social issue of recognizing marital rape and supporting the victims. Several hypotheses were made in this study; firstly, Langhinrichsen-Rohling and Monson hypothesize that the subjects in the study will be most likely to view forced marital intercourse as rape and to foresee greater psychological damage to the victim if they were told that there were previous incidents of violence in the marriage. The second hypothesis was that subjects who had no knowledge of the history of the marriage would suppose that there were previous incidences of violence and therefore label the intercourse presented as rape. Lastly, subjects that were told how there was no previous violence in the marriage were hypothesized to be the least likely to see the situation as being marital rape, most likely to give into cultural "gender role stereotypes" and therefore to be "rape supportive" (Langhinrichsen-Rohling and Monson, 1998)"

Married Relationships in Literature, 2005.
A look at how both Kate Chopin's story, "The Story of an Hour" and James Joyce's story, "The Dead", reflect on married relationships and how these relationships often do not live up to expectations.
795 words (approx. 3.2 pages), 2 sources, MLA, $ 28.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper describes the main characters in both stories and explains how these characters and the both stories' theme of death reflect the dull, lifeless state of most marriages. The paper points out that while Chopin and Joyce may have approached the subject of married relationships differently, in the final analysis, both authors end up with a telling commentary on how individual personalities and the drudgery of daily life result in a deadening of marital relationships and the individual spirit.
From the Paper
"Marriage is commonly defined as an intimate union of a man and woman, involving a special kind of love and commitment that facilitates a harmonious relationship and family life. Too often, however, the reality of marriage proves to be far removed from the idealized images projected by society and religion since individual personalities and the drudgery of daily living lead to a deadening of relationships. Indeed, this is precisely the revelation that both Kate Chopin and James Joyce make in The Story of an Hour and The Dead although the two authors approach the subject of married relationships from rather different perspectives. Both Chopin's Mrs. Mallard and Joyce's Gabriel are depicted as awakening to the true state of their respective marriages. The difference, however, between the two protagonists is that while Mrs. Mallard awakens to her need for liberation, Gabriel regrets the lack of passion in his dull existence with his wife."

Abstract
This paper explains that Robert Spencer organizes his book "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam" (and the Crusades)" in three large sections. The author points out that, in the first section, Spencer analyzes the era of the Prophet Muhammad and the philosophy set forth in the Qur'an, which Spencer calls a book of war. The paper relates that, in the second section, Spencer covers the history of the Crusades as the first clash between the Middle East and the West, between Islam and Christianity, which he finds important for making the West and Christianity ascendant and for keeping Islam in check for centuries. The author tells that the third section addresses the current era of jihad against the West, as the consequence of the earlier time and a continuing philosophical clash in which Spencer clearly sees the West as having the moral high ground and Islam as claiming a moral strength it does not possess at all.

From the Paper
"Spencer makes his own answer clear when he writes about why the life of Muhammad matters and stats that "religions are not entirely determined (or distorted) by the faithful over time." It has become common for the politically correct to see Islam as a peaceful religion that is being distorted by some followers, but Spencer wants to show that the foundation of the religion itself favors war and actions taken from a position of power. Spencer also wants to elevate Christianity over Islam in philosophical terms and throughout compares the teachings of Jesus and the teachings of Muhammad to show that they are not equivalent and that there are real differences that make one more acceptable than the other."

From the Paper
"Budgeting time wisely every night is an important part of maturity. But you must also budget your time over the semester. Don't try to have too many extracurricular activities scheduled, until you are sure you can handle the work level of your course load. Have a semester-long planner and don't just focus on assignments from a day-to-day basis. Know when long, large projects are due, and if these projects conflict. Know how to prioritize certain projects, when feeling overwhelmed. Assigning the tasks you need to complete each day a letter value can be helpful--is the task "A" (very important) "B" (somewhat important) or "C" (can be put off until a less busy day)?"
