Download or read book Sweetening the Pill written by Holy Grigg-Spall and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-07 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of healthy women take a powerful medication every day from their mid-teens to menopause - the Pill - but few know how this drug works or the potential side effects. Contrary to cultural myth, the birth-control pill impacts on every organ and function of the body, and yet most women do not even think of it as a drug. Depression, anxiety, paranoia, rage, panic attacks - just a few of the effects of the Pill on half of the over 80% of women who pop these tablets during their lifetimes. When the Pill was released, it was thought that women would not submit to taking a medication each day when they were not sick. Now the Pill is making women sick. However, there are a growing number of women looking for non-hormonal alternatives for preventing pregnancy. In a bid to spark the backlash against hormonal contraceptives, this book asks: Why can't we criticize the Pill? ,

Download or read book Let s Talk About Why You Don t Want to Use Condoms During Sex written by Scott Daniel Morrison and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study tests the potential benefits of addressing response costs in a fear appeal message. Response cost content acknowledges and counters drawbacks commonly associated with a proposed behavior. Response costs are not considered in the EPPM. Study participants were shown a fear appeal message from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention on sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and the effectiveness of male latex condoms in preventing STI transmission. Participants randomly assigned to the experimental case were then shown additional content addressing response costs associated with condom use, while the control group was shown a message instructing them to proceed to the next block of questions. Results of independent samples t-tests reported no significant relationship between this manipulation and intention to use male condoms during sex in the future. Meanwhile, the results of a multiple linear regression found that response costs significantly increased predictive power. Taken together, this study suggests response costs remain a useful variable when considering fear appeal development, but perceptions of response costs may not be easily manipulated.
Download or read book Without Condoms written by Michael Shernoff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-22 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After years of activism, risk awareness, and AIDS prevention, increasing numbers of gay men are not using condoms, and new infections of HIV are on the rise. Using case studies and exhaustive survey research, this timely, groundbreaking book allows men who have unprotected sex, a practice now known as "barebacking," to speak for themselves on their willingness to risk it all. Without Condoms takes a balanced look at the profound needs that are met by this seemingly reckless behavior, while at the same time exposing the role that both the Internet and club drugs like crystal methamphetamine play in facilitating high-risk sexual encounters. The result is a compassionate, sophisticated and nuanced insight into what for many people is one of the most perplexing aspects of today's gay male culture and life style. Michael Shernoff digs deep and forces us to see that the AIDS epidemic is not over. We must now ask the hard questions and listen to the voices that answer. The stakes are too high to ignore.

Download or read book Doing the Best I Can written by Kathryn Edin and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the political spectrum, unwed fatherhood is denounced as one of the leading social problems of today. Doing the Best I Can is a strikingly rich, paradigm-shifting look at fatherhood among inner-city men often dismissed as “deadbeat dads.” Kathryn Edin and Timothy J. Nelson examine how couples in challenging straits come together and get pregnant so quickly—without planning. The authors chronicle the high hopes for forging lasting family bonds that pregnancy inspires, and pinpoint the fatal flaws that often lead to the relationship’s demise. They offer keen insight into a radical redefinition of family life where the father-child bond is central and parental ties are peripheral. Drawing on years of fieldwork, Doing the Best I Can shows how mammoth economic and cultural changes have transformed the meaning of fatherhood among the urban poor. Intimate interviews with more than 100 fathers make real the significant obstacles faced by low-income men at every step in the familial process: from the difficulties of romantic relationships, to decision-making dilemmas at conception, to the often celebratory moment of birth, and finally to the hardships that accompany the early years of the child's life, and beyond.
