A Glimpse Into Madness

  Introduction Riley Gaines has made it on the news once again.  She, along with dozens of other college athletes, have decided to file a lawsuit against the NCAA.  Gaines and these athletes believe that Lia Thomas, a transgender woman, should not have been allowed to compete at the national championships in 2022 because Lia Thomas is a biological male.  In these championships, Riley Gaines and Lia Thomas ended up tying for fifth place.  However, Thomas was given the trophy, not Gaines.  In what way is this fair to Riley Gaines, a biological woman competing in sports designed for biological women?  The sad part is, this hasn’t just been happening in swimming, but volleyball, track, karate, and all of women’s sports, and yet, very few people have the courage to stand up for what’s right. ESPN For today’s post, I read from an article by ESPN: Live Sports & Scores.  The title of the article is, “Swimmers, other athletes sue NCAA over transgender ...

Introduction According to NBC Boston, the lawmakers of Massachusetts have found it necessary to update their schools’ curriculum regarding sex education.  The last time that sex education was updated in Massachusetts was 1999, and now, suddenly, Massachusetts has decided that it is time to have things change in 2023, and years to come.  It raises the questions, “Why?” and “What was wrong with the curriculum in 1999?” NBC BOSTON ARTICLE One afternoon, I sat down and read an article from NBC Boston titled, “Massachusetts updates sex and health education guidelines for first time in decades.”  I had no idea this article existed until my mentor sent it to me to read.  She was right when she assumed I would be interested in the topic.  Not only do I live near Massachusetts, but I want to know what is impacting my generation and the ones to come.  If I’m going to have children of my own, I should care about what is happening in the school’s system, right? Despite...

  Introduction American society has mistakenly viewed Alfred Kinsey as a normal man.  If he's acknowledged at all as an individual, he may be seen as a simpleton who has studied biology, entomology, zoology, and sexology.  Or, he may be seen as a hero who has broken through the "oppressive" culture and boldly declared that sexuality should be celebrated with respect, openness, and mutuality.  Someone who pushed for his beliefs with his "groundbreaking research" and transformed Western culture into what it is today.  However, for all that he has been praised for, very few seem concerned let alone aware with who he truly is: an evil man. DR. MIRIAM GROSSMAN Last year, I had the privilege of reading the book You're Teaching My Child What? by Dr. Miriam Grossman, a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist.  Her book exposes sex educations and shows how it is affecting kids and teenagers, and what parents should be doing about it.  Only twenty pages into ...

What Is The Purpose Of My Blog? As a senior in High school, I have been tasked with the responsibility of generating a research paper and a related product, this blog.  I will be giving a presentation in May 2024 to a review board where I will present what I have accomplished for this senior project.  I chose to write my paper on the Nature and Function of Gender, which I narrowed down to sex education.  The point of my paper was to show how sex education has mislead and negatively impacted America's culture.  Most specifically, America's families.  Because my product must relate to my paper's topic, the purpose of this blog is to expos...
