F RAMING THE PROBLEM KEY

TO FINDING A SOLUTION

THE PROBLEM:

Systematic degradation of the truth and meaning of human sexuality

THE CAUSE:

What factors contributed to the development and manifestation of the problem? Who is responsible for creating the environment that allows the problems to flourish? How has the problem become so entrenched in our culture that perversions of the meaning of sexuality have become normative in our culture?

H OW DOES THE SEXUAL REVOLUTION PLAY A PART IN ALL THIS ?

SMIDGEN OF HISTORY

Pre- 20th Century

Sex was saved for marriage and used mostly for procreation It was a huge taboo to be unwed and pregnant

1900s

Margaret Sanger opened the first birth control clinic in 1915 1919-1930 White House Conference on Child Welfare tossed the idea around that sex ed should be taught in public schools 1940- US public Heath Service produced a document on sex ed with guidelines on how to integrate e it in schools

C ONTINUE

Focus on childrens sexuality changed after Alfred Kinseys publications, sexual behavior in the human male (1948) and sexual behavior in the human female (1953)

1960s Congress amended Title X to include family planning services ie contraceptives for unmarried women

Sex Information and Education Council (Siecus) established- source of professional standards for sex ed

1973 Roe v. Wade 1976 PP asked government to provide $800 million annually for contraceptive availability and sex ed programs for teens.

C ONTINUE

1978- Adolescent Pregnancy Act which increased funding for family planning agencies such as Planned Parenthood to provide services to unmarried teens, without parental consent. Late 1970s legislature about sex ed in schools was created 1981 Adolescent Family Life Act which emphasized abstinence education and parental involvement. 1990 Title X was receiving $100 million while abstinence programs was $1.5 million 1998-2000 Welfare Reform act -Title V- $250 millions dollars given to programs promoting an exclusively abstinence message 2002, 2005- more funds were given for abstinence only education

K INSEY

QUOTE

Alfred Kinsey from: Reisman Kinsey: Crimes and Consequences (p.36)

Father of the Sexual revolution

Obtained degrees in psychology and biology He started the Kinesy Institute from which scientific sexual experiments where conducted and collected data from American citizens

If you look closer at his data, the majority of the information was obtained from prisoners, pedophiles, and college students.

A CCORDING

TO

K INSEY

Americans were deeply involved in variety of sexual behaviors

Pre-marital sex Adultery Masturbation Adult-child sex Bestiality Incest Bi and homosexual sex

K INSEY S T WO D OMINANT S TRATEGIES L EADING TO H EALTHY S EXUALITY:

Strategy #1

Establish bisexuality as the balanced sexual orientation for normal uninhibited people.

Strategy #2

Create a society where early, frequent, varied and crossgenerational sexual behavior was encouraged.

O NE OF THE MOST HORRIFYING D ATA TABLES

An orgasm was defined as when children reacted with "violent convulsions of the whole body; heavy breathing, groaning, sobbing, or more violent cries, sometimes with an abundance of tears (especially among the younger children)" (p. 161, Male volume)

W HAT HAPPENED TO ALL OF THE VICTIMS ?

Kinsey experimented on hundreds of children. Only one victim has come forward to share her story. Esther White (pseudonym) spoke to World Net Daily hoping to influence legislators to defund the Kinsey Institute in Indiana in 2010

"[My father] was giving me orgasms and timing it with a stopwatch. I didn't like it, I went into convulsions, but he didn't care.
When she was nine (1943), she found her fathers data sheet with check boxes with statements describing sexual acts . Her mother divorced him once she found our and afterwards, he still tried to molest her- even after she was married.

K INSEY C ONCLUSIONS

His ideas and experiments influenced not only the culture but started organizations like SIECUS and Planned Parenthood. His science proved that humans were participating in all sorts of sexual acts and just had be lying about it in public.

Ex. According to Kinsey, adults who claimed they were virgins, or martially faithful, were actually promiscuous and the widespread promiscuity had done no harm to the civil society

His ideas cause a push for more sex ed , contraception availability and distribution, and sexual promiscuity

H OW DOES F EMINISM PLAY A

ROLE

A CTUALLY .

Feminism was a movement that fought for equality for educational and employment opportunities and the right to vote. (First wave feminism)
It wasnt until the 1970s that this movement was hijacked by the abortion on demand group. (Second wave feminism)

They believed that since women must compete with men, they must be like men in ever way, neglecting a womens role in child bearing

Fought to sexually liberate women from being a wife and mother Therefore abortion was equated to a womens happiness

As Professor Mary Anne Glendon, of Harvard Law School, notes, abortion rights became the flagship of

... the peculiar form of feminism that took shape in the 1970s. To earlier feminists who had fought for the vote and for fair treatment in the workplace, it had seemed obvious that the ready availability of abortion would facilitate the sexual exploitation of women. Pioneering feminists like Susan B. Anthony and Elisabeth Stanton regarded free love, abortion, and easy divorce as disastrous for women and children.

Susan B. Anthony

Born in 1820 in a Quaker family

She was a teacher and got involved with womens rights movement in 1852

FEMINISTS

Elisabeth Stanton

Born in 1815
Wrote Declaration of Sentiments at Seneca Fall Convention in 1848

initiated the first organized womans rights and suffrage movements in US

President of National American Woman Suffrage Association for 20 years During civil war promoted abolition of slavery then focused on the right to vote.

Second wave feminists, or todays feminists, refer to these women as mothers of the feminism movement They do not agree with their pro-life views but instead claim that if they were born later with more modern technology, they would be prochoice as well.

SO

HERE WE ARE

What factors contributed to the development and manifestation of the problem? Who is responsible for creating the environment that allows the problems to flourish? How has the problem become so entrenched in our culture that perversions of the meaning of sexuality have become normative in our culture? Any other thoughts that have contributed to the sexual mess we are in today?
