Abstract
Tantra, a Sanskrit word, has been defined as a ?holistic wisdom link between us and the universe we inhabit.? This paper examines Tantra, its practices, methods, and origins. It also explores and determines the benefits of participating in Tantric sex, physically, emotionally and spiritually. The paper also touches briefly on different resources available to those who are interested in learning and practicing the art of Tantra.
From the Paper
"While Tantra is not a religious philosophy, it does embrace a deep understanding of life, and an ancient art of living in harmony with self, others, and the world around us. Those who practice Tantra are encouraged to treat sexual energy as an ally, rather than something whispered about and avoided. The spiritual path of Tantra says that sexual intercourse is sacred and divine, not a sin. However, Tantra does not ask its followers to repress their sexual urges in order to encounter God, but rather it supports the development of the vital sexual energy inside each individual as the means of achieving union with God."

Women as Sexual Objects in Art, 2002.
The paper discusses whether artists in general and Cindy Sherman, in particular, have moved away from accepting women as sexual objects towards giving them an autonomous identity.

Abstract
The paper analyzes a photograph by Cindy Sherman, based on Raphael's
famous portrait "Fornarina". It argues that while the original painting depicted women as "possessed" by men and therefore "owned" by the painter, the modern-era version de-objectifies the feminine form and gives women a sense of self-identity. The paper clarifies this point by pointing out that the model of the picture is also the photographer.
From the Paper
"In the view of Kate Linker (1983), there has been of late, a shift in the way we conceive of texts. We have moved, to a degree, away from the expressionist model, ?based on an expressive self and an emphatic reader, who reduplicates preconstituted meanings (1983, p. 391).? This shift further moves the reader or, in the case of the visual arts, the viewer, away from a fixed ideology which renders meaning as timeless and immutable rather than as shifting or in process. Linker (1983) suggests that in most representational visual art, there are abundant forms in which the very apparatus or content of work constitutes subjects as male, positioning women as unauthorized and illegitimate and as represented rather than representing."

Reflection
From the Paper
"The Internet provides the forum for one person to have several different sexual personas with different ages, genders, preferences and desires."
"This has held true through other readings I have done in the past. In fact, news shows are constantly broadcasting the fact that people use the internet to pretend to be something other than what they are. An extreme example is that show that sets people up with a decoy and they believe they are coming to meet a 12-year-old girl and the cameras are waiting when they arrive."
"Outside of such illegal and immoral behaviors articles have supported the idea that the Internet is an alluring sex arena because it allows participants to "try on" various personas and act out their sexual fantasies while remaining safely hidden behind invented names, genders and pictures."

Sex and Sexuality, 2005.
This paper explores the relationship between sexuality and the gender binary.

Abstract
This paper discusses how traditional assumptions about sexuality are rooted in the rigid concept of the gender binary. This gender binary generates and sustains an iniquitous power imbalance between the two genders. The paper explains how the gender binary, sexuality and power are so interwoven that it is hard to imagine one without the other - contrary to the general assumption that sexuality is assigned by biology. However, the paper notes that it is not a chicken-and-egg situation, for it is possible to ascertain which came first.

Abstract
This paper explains that, before the decision was made in the Oncale vs. Sundowner Offshore Services, Inc. case, there was no clear way to deal with same-sex harassment. The author points out that, in this case, a hostile environment was defined as a derivative of physical and verbal harassment suffered by the plaintiff and perpetrated by coworkers. The paper states that studies on same-gender sexual harassment suggest male-male sexual harassment has a more severe impact upon psychological and job-related outcomes than other forms of sexual harassment.

"All over the world, no matter what part it is, there will be literature speaking on the mystery of Love. In each of these areas, this concept will be viewed with numerous points of view. Today, Love is said to be the feeling that is felt about someone you care about. However, in ancient times, Love was regarded in a whole new light. It was an idea that was studied and then hopefully made flawless."

Background to the Study
Over the last two decades, research studies have documented significant rates of child sexual abuse among both female and male children.

Estimates for male children are approximately 1 in 8.
There are a number of effects that have been associated with childhood sexual abuse, including psychological, sexual, and interpersonal difficulties (Briere, 1992). One additional problem that has been associated with early abuse is sexual..."

Abstract
This paper examines the different reactions shown by men and women as they experience emotional and sexual jealousy. The paper begins with a discussion of gender differences in general as well as defining what jealousy actually is. The paper concludes that while gender does have some effect on the person's jealous reaction, social and cultural differences have a larger influence on sexual jealousy.
From the Paper
"The psychology of gender has evolved and has been modified dramatically over the past decade from descriptive cataloguing of gender-related differences and similarities to specific areas of inquiry within organized theoretical or methodological framework. Much of the history of behavioural sciences has involved the attempt to come to grips with a dilemma of gender-determined reaction to sexual and emotional infidelity."

Abstract
This paper begins by defining jealousy as a negative, complex human emotion that represents a provoked response to problems posed by real and/or perceived threats to an exclusive dyadic relationship. It is most commonly associated with long-term romantic relationships and sexual relationships. The paper then looks at the different experiences of men and women in dealing with jealousy within relationships and with other people. The paper references two theories, known as evolutionary-psychological and socio-cultural in studying and understanding this phenomenom.

Sexual Perspectives in Dutch Baroque Art, 2003.
Examines male vs. female depictions of an "indecent proposal".

Abstract
This paper examines the dramatically different way in which male and female artists portray the same act - an 'indecent proposal' of money for sexual favors. To facilitate the comparison, artists are all Dutch painters active in the 1600s. Judith Leyster's "The Proposition" is used as the key female illustration of an indecent proposal, while a number of her male contemporaries (Baburen, Honthorst, Molenaer, Ter Borch, Vermeer) are examined for the male perspective.
From the Paper
In 1893, during a cleaning of The Jolly Toper, a painting acquired by the Louvre as a Frans Hals, a curious discovery was made. In the lower corner of the work was the emblem "JLS?" - the monogram of the previously-unknown artist Judith Leyster (1609-1660) . Though highly regarded in her own 17th century Holland, Leyster's work had been essentially lost until this accidental discovery. Leyster shared the fate of many female artists, whose work is often lesser known and not as favorably regarded as that of their male contemporaries. Works within a genre made by male and female artists often demonstrate sharp differences in the way each sex portrays the subject matter. Comparing Judith Leyster's The Proposition with several other similar works by her male Dutch contemporaries readily illustrates this point.

The paper looks at some of the problems associated with women's sexuality and whether these are perceived, physical, or medical problems. Finally,it examine how women see their own sexuality.
From the Paper
"Before the advent of the ?sexual revolution? in the 1960s the subject of female sexuality was considered taboo in so called polite society. Discussion of sexuality by females was viewed as an aberration. Women were taught and told that the normal reaction of women towards sexual intercourse was that they generally did not feel any physical or emotional pleasure from it. Sex was a means to an end; by performing their wifely duty to please their mates women were subjugated to the role of baby maker. This severe repression of female sexuality and its total submission to reproductive functions determined the limits of knowledge for untold generations of women (Gomex 1995)."

"Sexuality is a term that means different things to different people. The same can be stated for sexuality in politics, religion, and social relations. This paper discusses the articles of "Sexuality" and "The Sexual Revolution." How is sexuality a political issue? How does sexuality affect the way people live? How has sexuality changed through the years? These questions are important in helping a person develop their own sexual identity and understand why a person believes the way he/she does about social politics or the social issues of sexuality. The authors show how sexuality is affected by both religion and politically. Sexuality has changed over the years in many different ways. "Throughout the course of U.S. history, the meaning of sexuality has been continuously reshaped by changing economic and social institutions". At one time the word "sex" would get the attention of people because sexuality was not discussed in public."
