Abstract
This paper looks at the role of sexuality in the hospitality industry in the UK. The paper compares its role in the UK with its role in the United States and suggests that, while it is more blatant in the U.S., it is equally ubiquitous in the UK. The paper uses examples such as sexuality in advertising, the use of hotels for prostitution, strip clubs, and the attempts of the industry to target the younger crowd with activities comprising sexual content as a sign of how widespread sexuality in the hospitality industry really is.
From the Paper
"The hospitality industry in the UK is big business, and sexuality is an important part of this business. If we define the hospitality industry as "hotels and a myriad of leisure and catering operations of different kinds" (Mills), then the hospitality industry in the UK brings in around 50 billion pounds each year. This is around 10% of Britain's total consumer expenditure each year. In addition, the hospitality industry employs about 70% of the individuals within the wider tourism industry (Mills)."

Abstract
This paper looks at the occurrence of sexual abuse in the hospital systems. The paper explores two levels of such abuse, between doctors and nurses and between doctors and patients. The paper begins by defining sexual harassment and then looks at statistics from recent years. The paper then looks at the implications for the running of the hospital and the human resources that deal with such issues.
From the Paper
"Sexual harassment, in whatever form it exists, is a forced exploitation and has serious consequences for the whole health care sector. It is a serious blow to the personal dignity of the offended and the clear breach of the professional and moral integrity on the part of the offender. From the point of view of the human resource department it is very important to understand the extent of damage that this malice of sexual harassment can cause. Its negative impact is not just limited to the affected person but ripple effect can be observed throughout the entire organizational setup. From the employees perspective it may involve serious psychological damage and loss of morale, reduced achievement and commitment to work and even ending up in quitting of the job."

"Sexual Harassment and Sexual Revictimization
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 female children under the age of 18 who have experienced at least one incident of abuse ranges from 1 in 4 to 1 in 2.5 among nonclinical samples (Kohn, 1987; Wyatt, 1985). 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 reviews several articles discussing female sexuality. It reviews articles on what female sexuality is, what is involved in the sexuality of females, what helps aide in feminine sexuality and what hinders a women's sexuality. 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."

Abstract
This paper explores the attitude in the UK today, of social workers towards sexuality, noting that they are hesitant about even broaching the subject.

Outline:
Introduction
Sexuality as social construction
Marginalization
Same-sex couples and child adoption
Sexuality and the aged
Conclusions
From the Paper
"Within the areas of social work sexuality needs to be debated more openly. But it needs to be done so based on a more sophisticated understanding of sexuality's meaning and power. Before the arrival of Michel Foucault, who as a French philosopher revolutionised our understanding of sexuality, the implications of maintaining attitudes as cited above - both open and hidden - had been scarcely realized. Most of the time people took it on trust, from both popular writers and medical experts, who convincingly based their explanations on a supposedly rigorous scientific footing, that sexuality was in the main a biological construct, with clear demarcations as to what constituted man and woman as well as the purpose of both in the evolutionary scheme of things. (Wilton, 2000, p.163) But more recently, people have come to appreciate how untenable and arbitrary this division could be. This misconception has been expressed by Ann Oakley particularly well."

From the Paper
"The soft drinks market is highly concentrated into the activities of a handful of major companies, led by two dominant alliances. The clear leader is the alliance between Coca-Cola and Cadbury Schweppes, knows as Coca-Cola & Schweppes Beverages (CCSB). Due to the high costs of market entry into a large, national sector such as soft drinks, and the significant resources required to meet distribution demands, it is expected that the soft drinks industry structure will continue to become more consolidated at the top, and increasingly fragmented at entry level."

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."

Abstract
This paper explains that the explosive growth in the hospitality industry demands highly-qualified people trained in hospitality management to fill rapidly opening positions. The author points out that the research indicates that attributes are not the key to selecting a career in the hospitality industry. The paper concludes that the ?graduate image? was not always accepted as being valuable, and often students felt they had to prove themselves more because they had an education.

"Clearly with these companies and many others, certification is becoming a requirement for practice. Maintaining and enhancing the industry's professional certification programs have one central purpose according to Karen Giles, the Vice President responsible for certification programs, "To increase the value of certification so that in turn, certification raises the professionalism of the entire hospitality industry and everyone who works within it. Certification and the standards of competency it brings will help the hospitality industry become recognized as the profession it is. By defining a body of knowledge necessary for each hospitality position, certification gives everyone, from housekeepers to general managers, concrete goals to strive for and a way to benchmark their personal successes.""

Abstract
In this paper, the writer notes that in recent times, there has been a tremendous amount of discussion about Christianity and its approach to human sexuality. The writer points out that depending on the commentator, the Church's position on sexuality is empowering, negative, supportive, or neutral. In addition, the writer discusses that some suggest that it is impossible to describe one Christian view about sexuality because of the various positions that differing Christians have taken regarding the relationship between one's sexuality and one's spirituality. However, such an answer belies the fact that, until recently, Catholics, Orthodox Christians, and all of the mainstream Protestant denominations took a negative view of human sexuality except for the purposes of procreation. The writer concludes that one must assume that the Christian view of sexuality will continue to evolve, as science and society gain a greater understanding of human sexuality.
From the Paper
"It is important to recognize that there is not one version of Christianity. Orthodox Christians and Catholics have a similar approach to the church, and their religions are shaped and formed by much outside of Scripture. In fact, with Catholicism, given that the Pope is considered to be the voice of God, some extra-scriptural things are given more weight than the words in the actual scripture. This attitude has allowed for the development of a religion that expands upon, explains, and even contradicts, the teachings in the Bible. Protestantism, as the name implies, began as a reaction to the Catholic Church's deviations from scripture, and has been characterized by faithfulness to the literal interpretation of the Bible. The problem with the Protestant approach is that the Bible relays information about events, which has been perverted by people into an endorsement of those events and behaviors. In fact, Biblical literalism may have damaged the Church, especially in gender and race relations. Anti-Semitism, slavery, homophobia, and sexism have all been explained away and even justified by the use or misuse of Scripture."

From the Paper
"In 1988, tourism once again began a rise. This time, however, the crisis in the Middle East that eventually erupted into the Gulf War brought tourism to a screeching halt. When the Gulf War ended, tourism was once again expected to begin a growth phase. By that time, however, the United States had entered into another economic recession, and economic activity in most of the other industrial nations had begun to slow. At that time, recovery in the travel industry was not expected to occur until the mid-1990s."

Advertisements and Sexuality, 2002.
An argument about whether sexually explicit advertising causes sexual desire.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This is an introduction to the topic that sexuality in advertisement causes sexual desirability of a person. The null hypothesis is that this experiment using sexual advertisement will not produce desirability. The paper shows how sexuality is a problem in the United States and examines whether the advertisements that portray sexuality may lead to sexual violence crimes. The writer asks that if this is true, then is it ethical to use ?sexual? advertisements?
From the Paper
"Does sexuality cause desire for sex? What is the difference between looking at sexual advertisements and regular advertisements without sexuality? Is there a difference? The class will show 15 sexual advertisements and 15 non-sexual advertisements. Will there be a difference? Many believe that the media has played a role in the increase of young people having sex early and with more partners. Is this true? Movies, television, music, and magazines are filled with sexual messages to the young person. Even at an early childhood age, children want to dress sexually. Teens rate the media as a second source of information about sex. Schools are the first source in giving information about sex. Does ?sexual? advertisement lead to sexual crimes and aggression? Is it ethical to use sexually appealing advertisements if it can lead to violence in the home or other crimes? Does research show that advertisements bring the desire for sexuality? "
