    8.For a person to grow in Chastity one must (1) Be the master of his/her sexual appetite (2) Understands sexuality, the True value of sexuality (3) is disciplined when it comes to his/her feelings and sexual drives (4) his/her sexuality is expressed in accordance with the God's plan

    9. The song 'Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on' is about Gay people having sex, The phrase itself means lets have sex. I didnt even knew till now. This is related to our topic of sexuality because our topic talks about human sexuality. Human sexuality is the way someone is sexualy attracted to another may it be Hetero,Homo,bi,pan, or asexuality. Like in the song its about Gay people being sexually attracted to each other.

    10. I will post and spread about the True and Proper treatment of Human sexuality. Even if i get turned down or ignored I will try my best and do it non stop because sooner or later they will realize it someday, and comeback to me either because sudden realization or their experience.

    8.) A person must be able to not givein to sexual drives, not bea slave of his or her sexual apetite, understand the true value of sexuality, and express his orher sexuality in accordance with God's plan.
    9.) The title of the song has a meaning of its own when it comes to the LGBT community. Form them it means "lets have intercourse." This relates to our topic in many ways that this man's name is used for such an act. Sexuality is a gift from God nad should no be used with evil desires.
    10.) I can show those social media site that Human sexuality is like a gift from someone. That we must respect what we recieve and accept the fact that it is beautiful. Others might think differently but all of their opinions don't matter for only God's opinion and or facts matter with uptmost importance. I will also spread God's word through these forms of social media so that everyone will understand or interpret what God is trying to tell us about Human Sexuality.

      1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory  in view of understanding human sexuality.

    For me, human sexuality is the limitation of humans to have that “erotic” replies. Moreover, one’s sexual orientation can influence their sexual interest / attraction of a certain person. Accordingly, it has been said that it just part of our nature that biology was even discussed— stating that our instincts are the ones that control our own beliefs and actions towards this issue. Albeit, the nurture debate states that our own sexuality are influenced by the outside forces that we go through and encounter every day.

       2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.


    According to Sigmund Freud, preached that sexual “sexual drives” are instinctive and viewed sexuality as the centre of the human’s personality. In addition, he also expected that such behaviour was rooted in biology, proposing that the instincts are the principal motivating forces in the mental realm. Meanwhile, John Locke preached the theory of the mind being known as a “tabula rasa” (blank slate), the environment in which one drives their sexuality. Moreover, he also believed that people are vigorously shaped by their social environments— that whatever is folded on the mind will comes from his/ her surrounding as the person seeks for his / her identity.

       3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Physical: It is said and proven that girls / women are able to mature in an earlier stage than that of the boys.

    Psycho-emotional and Spiritual: It is said and proved that boys/ men become more competitive whilst women become more nurturing, conscious and protective.

       4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    It is only because of such that sexuality is a very susceptible and delicate topic, especially to us Filipinos. During these discussions, we tend to feel awkward and uncomfortable with our family as we exchange responses to what we should have been dealing with “normally”. Maybe, this is mainly because of not growing up with the “used” situation and practices and discussions. Families tend to limit theirselves in one context that they are too afraid to splurge out the truth and reality of each and everyone of us. This kind of sexuality discussion is very essential to young people as they can be guided with open-mindedness and clarity.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    According to faith street, all humans are concurrently sinful and loved. This only means that despite of all the wrong doings and decisions that we have made, God’s love and grace is where we find solace. Second, Jesus was not silent about homosexuality. In fact, he was unequivocal in understanding marriage and sexual union of both men and women. He brings up the creation story— making us realise that male and female are for each other. Furthermore, children have the right to have a mother and father. “This was the first command God gave to the first two humans: to come together and bring forth the coming generations of new divine image-bearers.” On the other hand, same-sex attraction is not a sin. Unless you give into the desire and attraction to pleasure, then it makes you sin. We all go through temptations that sometimes compels and drives us to the road of committing sin, but as long as we don’t fall into such, then we are good. Furthermore, sexual intimacy is not right or valid for it is exclusive to one’s spouse. Lastly, people are always more than their sexuality. By this, we should not limit the horizon of seeing things from a person just because he / she has a different sexuality. We should try digging deeper to see the true values of the person and not cover up everything he / she has with their sexuality.

       6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    God mainly intended this “gift” to both man and woman— this is because of procreation. God blessed each with this to bear a child and further expand his children.

       7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    God found “sex” and gifted it to the first male and female. On the other hand, sexual relations or such sexuality is limited to those who have been married already for it is a thing that should be appreciated ones bonded by God. People this day tend to reciprocate the meaning and just abuse the true essence of sexuality in their everyday lives. Sexuality is just normal for a person as long as its true meaning is not further slammed.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    By definition, chastity is sexual self-control with the right knowledge that sexual intimacy is limited to one relationship: marriage. First step to grow in chastity is to understand what sex really is— in the words of God. And then, we make sure that we have an open-mind to extend our thoughts to the teachings and preachings of God about this for this performance is very sacred. Moreover, we should apprehend our own temptations and try not to give in. We should learn all the basic preachings to further elaborate and apply it to our everyday lives. But before everything else, we should extend our faith to God for he is the very spirit of such concept.

       9.)  Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    As a person with right consciousness, I am abhorred by each and everyone’s action to such. I can say that the people who have been playing a role are to act like they just gave in to their “temptations”, thus, making them sin. The essence of chastity just disappeared in each’s heart that their sexuality and true meaning of sex just dominated over them. There were different contributors to such actions which were the bisexuals, homosexuals, and much more. Furthermore, this song has reach the limit of devastating the word, “kama sutra”. Such word and profound meaning was lighted up in the song that in no doubt, inherited the wrong understanding of the real meaning of the word. This song is a very great example for our action-reaction decisions that lead us to sin while carrying our own identity.

    10.)  How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.    


    First, I would aid all the total exposures of the young users in the said social media accounts. I will make sure that each social media accounts have security and appropriateness in different variety of ages. There are hundred ways of promoting human sexuality and one of which is using a social media account. By spreading the true meaning of human sexuality and how such amount of people are affected, then people who didn’t expect to see such information would just then be educated in an instant. This is just a matter of passing the information from one person to another to save the youth, better of, to save theirselves too

  6. 8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity if he knows how to control his or her sexual desires, as well as fully understanding the true meaning and value of sexuality


    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    The song's title, "let's Marvin Gaye and get it on", means "lets have sex" in the LGBT community. This is related to our topic in a sense that sex is losing it's deeper meaning since it's becoming a more casual act. Sexuality is supposed to be a gift from God to man, and is intended not to be abused whatsoever.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I would post about the true meaning of human sexuality and explain that it is a gift and shouldn't be abused. It wouldn't matter whether or not people agree to this, but it is important to at least try to spread the real meaning of human sexuality

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity if he/she is educated by his/her parents and/or teachers about the purity of sexuality. A person must not fall under the many temptations of chastity, but instead resist the urge of committing it.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    My reaction to this song based on our current lesson is that sexuality nowadays is openly talked about and expressed. Though it is good to show the many interpretations of human sexuality there are some that may mislead. This song may have a nice tune to it, but the lyrics suggest something more lustful.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    In my opinion if I were to promote true human sexuality I would begin with campaigns such as simple slogans and simple symbols which symbolize the proper treatment of human sexuality. I would start open forums and discuss this matter of true human sexuality.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    All of us, as Christians under God, can grow in chastity by having inner discipline and values to guide us in making the right choices in life. Oftentimes, we simply become impatient to explore what life has in store for us; therefore, we do something we regret. However, simply being disciplined and having respect for the value and dignity of the human body can make a big difference. It just pays to always treat everyone appropriately and to have that self-control that prevents you from doing what you are not supposed to.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    To put it simply, I was quite shocked at how media is right now. When I first heard this song on the radio, I just thought that it was a nice and catchy song. However, when I found out about its hidden messages on human sexuality, I was just stunned with how much our media has changed for the worst. Most of what we see seems to always have an injected meaning in it, and I think that it is a bad message for future generations. My take on this is that we really need to be careful with what we see, and we should learn to discern when we are watching/listening to something sincere, or of we are just listening to a message no one wants to hear.


    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    If I had any of the following social networking sites, I would probably share my insights on how our world right now can still change for the better, considering how influential media can be, and nowadays a lot of it usually has bad messages as I have said. I would remind people to simply respect others for who they are, as humans created by God, since I believe that it only takes a simple reminder and a push to prove to others that it is still possible to remove the bad influences that our media can sometimes relay. I firmly have faith that God will forgive us and help us to once again go back to what really is valuable, which is pure and simple kindness to others.

    1. Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    Nature is defined as behavioral traits or sexual behavior is determined by innate characteristics or genetics. On the other hand, nurture is the belief that sexual behavior is modeled by the environment.

    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke’s contention of nature vs nurture.
    According to Sigmund Freud, behavior was rooted in biology or genes. He proposed that instincts (“Eros” the life instinct and “Thanatos” the death instinct) are the principal motivation in sexual drives. He also believed that sexuality is the central source of human personality. However, John Locke believed in the idea of nurture. He believed that people are shaped strongly by their social environment. He claims that a child’s mind should be viewed as a tabula rasa or a blank slate; whatever goes into the mind will come from the child’s environment.

    3. Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    The biological difference between men and women is that women mature earlier than men, but men tend to be physically stronger than women. Men also tend to be more competitive, while women are nurturing and protective. The social difference between men and women is that men are expected to be the primary breadwinner while the wife is expected to manage the home. However these roles have changed because of the social and economic changes.

    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed int he family?
    Sexuality is rarely discussed openly in the family because parents think it would be awkward to talk about it with their children. Also, they think that once they inform them about what sexuality is, they would be encouraging their children to the act itself. However, that is not the case. Educating your children about the right meaning of sexuality will prevent them from experimenting and exploring it.

    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality?
    Sexuality signifies an essential dimension of the whole person, by which he/she enters into relationship with others. Sexuality is not the same as the sex act.

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?
    It is God-given power for love and generativity that we must learn to integrate more fully within out total selves.

    7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    In the beginning God created man in his image- male and female. He then told them to be fertile and multiply. The bible states that God created male and female to love each other, and then multiply to fill the world with life and love. The most important important detail to remember here is that the relationship between the man and woman have to be bounded by love, before they reproduce.

    8. How can a person grow in chastity?
    You must not have any sexual relations before marriage. Once you get married, you must stay faithful to your husband and wife. A person must have control over his/her sexual appetite and understand the true value of sexuality.

    9. Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    Once you hear the song, the message being portrayed is very clear, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good message. Just like any other song on the radio today, the song is about engaging in sexual acts even before marriage. It saddens me how much sex has been commercialized nowadays, especially in the arts, just to make profit. It’s become so commercialized that some people don’t know the true meaning of it anymore. They think sex is no big deal, when it is supposed to be a big deal.

    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    I will first say my stand about proper treatment of human sexuality to attract the attention of people who feel the same way and to let them know that they are not alone in feeling this way. Then, I will post an infographic about the basics of the right meaning of human sexuality and try my best to make it go viral. Since our generation is very visual, they won’t be attracted to a 5 paragraph essay of me explaining my stand and the meaning of human sexuality, but an infographic will surely catch their attention much more.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Nature for me in simple terms is saying that your human sexuality is something you were born with, something that is there within you ever since. It is like saying that God gave this gift to you as who you are. Your sexuality is given by God, so even what other people or other things do to you or happen to you, you will still have the same sexuality that you are supposed to have, because it is given by God. It says that it is our genetics that define who we are.

    Nurture on the other hand is saying that our human sexuality is influenced by the people and things around us, it talks of how we are only who we are because of people and things influencing us. It says that our sexuality is modelled by the environment that we live in.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Sigmund Freud says that our human sexuality is because of our personality, it is who we are. It is our instincts to be with these kinds of people. He talks of how we are who we are because of ourselves, that we were born like this.

    John Locke talks of us being a blank slate and making us different from others because of what we have been through. Blank slate or “tabula rasa” is literally blank and empty when we are born and who we are is influenced by other people and the environment around us.


    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Biologically men seem to become stronger than women as they grow up, however women mature faster than men. The different hormones that boys and girls have determine their different biological differences, men’s bodies are very different from women’s even at the parts that both have, it is because of our biological DNA as well as our hormones.
    Socially men tend to be competitive and task-oriented, focusing mostly on work and doing the correct job. Women on the other hand tend to be nurturing and protective of others and do things out of love and care for other people. Although this is not always true for men and women, moreover it is just the majority of men and women who act in this way.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Of course as parents it is your obligation and duty to educate your kids about these kinds of things however as anyone would feel talking about sex to an 8 year old, it is very awkward. How do you get real with a child about the facts of life, it is very hard to do. However it is vital since wouldn’t you rather have this information come from you rather than their friends or other sources? Because this is what happens, kids go looking for the information parents do not supply and in the end gather wrong information about their bodies and the birds and the bees. Thus since teenagers and kids do not hear these things from their parents, they think it is wrong and bad and feel uncomfortable to talk about it with their parents or anyone.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Human sexuality is who a person is, it is their personality and their whole-being. It is a part of them that allows them to love and care for other people. To love someone enough to get into a relationship with, to love and to cherish. That is what is so sacred about sexuality, it allows us to find and feel love. It is incorporated in every human life, it is developed by each of us to understand one another and to feel love to each other. It is not simply the sexual act, but a part of our personality and soul that makes us love someone else.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    It is a gift because we are created like this, God gave us this power and freedom to love and be loved and this is through our human sexuality. It helps us relate to others and use those connections to love one another. It is a gift because it touches our whole soul to give our love for another person. It is who we are, it is a fundamental aspect of us that makes us who we are and who we can be. It is not just the act of having sex, because that is not a great enough gift, it is our doing of love and connection with others as it makes who we are, our whole being, our whole self. It affects the activities we do, the clothes we wear, the names we call ourselves, our decisions, and our personality, it helps us deal with everything we do, as well as our capacity to deal with our feelings.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    Genesis 2:18 says "The Lord God said: “It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him.” and how great is God for that, giving us a life partner to love and share this life with, this is how sexuality came to be, to give us a chance to find someone we love.
    Matthew 19:4-5 says "Jesus replied: “At the beginning the Creator made them male and female and declared, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This shows how as we grow up, we have the freedom to find someone to choose to live with, to be one with, to be together as one body forever.

    In Genesis, it says “God created man in his image… male and female he created them” (1:27). From His marvelous plan, God willed us to be born, to grow, and to relate to others as a man or as a woman. Out of His infinite love for us, God has created the foundation of who we truly are to become—our physical traits, our emotions, our talents and abilities, ways of relating to others through our sexuality.” Our sexuality is more than just sex, it is what we are, it is our physical, mental, psychological traits, it is the foundation of ourselves, rather than just an act of physical need.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    To be chaste, it is basically saving yourself for the one who you will marry, the person you will love and cherish and be with forever. That you will have relations with him/her and only him/her. You must do the act of sex out of love and desire for the person not just to fulfil your sexual needs. You must be in harmony with yourself and your soul, knowing that you don’t need sex all the time to be happy. You must know that you are the master of your body, your sexual appetite and sexual desires do not control you, rather the other way around. It is being selfless by giving your body to the one that you know you will love and be with forever. It also means staying faithful and loyal to that person, not committing adultery on that person and being with that person forever.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    It talks of the sexual act, it shows that there is no sincerity or care for the sexual act nowadays since it is just a medium used in the media and other platforms. It ruins the sanctity of the act and does not allow us to see the sexual act as more than just sex. It is bad that it is being commercialized and being used like this when it is actually something beautiful and something great.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I would use this platform to not spread things that promote sex being nothing more than just the act. It is not just the act, and I would like to remind people of that. I would let other people know that their sexuality is nothing to be ashamed of. Being GAY, LESBIAN, STRAIGHT, BI, PAN, ASEXUAL, is all okay, you do you because God made you that way. As well as showing that sex and sexuality isn’t something light, it is who we are. I would use videos and visuals to show how this is now something to abuse, but something to cherish.

    1. Some researchers assume that sexual behavior is determined by genetics, and others assert that it is molded by the environment. This is the nature versus nurture debate, in which one can define nature as those behavioral traits that are due to innate characteristics, such as instincts and drives.

    2. Sigmund Freud is a firm supporter of the nature argument. He believed that sexual drives are instinctive and viewed sexuality as the central source of human personality. His theory assumed that behavior was rooted in biology. He proposed that instincts are the principal motivating forces in the mental realm, and held that there are a large number of instincts but that they are reduced into two broad groups; eros, the life instinct, which covers all the self-preserving and erotic instincts and thanatos, the death instinct, which covers instincts toward aggression, self-destruction, and cruelty. John Locke, on the other hand, believed in the nurture argument, using his theory of the mind being seen as a “tabula rasa” or blank slate, the environment in which one develops drives their sexuality. He rejected the assumption that there are innate differences among people, and argued that people are shaped strongly by their social environments, especially by education. As the person develops, they discover their identity.

    3. Girls seem to mature earlier than boys but men tend to be physically stronger than women. (Physical) Also, men tend to be competitive while women tend to be nurturing and protective. Men are generally task oriented, and most women tend to do things out of genuine love and concern for people. (Psycho-Emotional and Spiritual)

    4. The husband is expected to be the primary breadwinner and the wife is expected to manage the home more than the husband. But nowadays, sharing of role is necessary due to social and economic changes. However, sexuality is seldom discussed openly in the family. Some parents fail to assume their right and duty to educate their children about sexual matters. Thus, teenagers may think that sexuality is shameful, sinful, or taboo. Teenagers try to get information outside the home like peers, friends or from the media. Unfortunately, many of the things we hear from friends or media are half-truths or even distortions of the true meaning of human sexuality.

    5. Sexuality signifies an essential dimension of the whole person, by which he/she enters into relationship with others. “It thus touches every aspect of personal life, and has to be developed by all men and women just as life itself must be.” (NCDP 287; cf. CCC 2332).

    6. Human sexuality is God’s gift to us. We are created according to God’s image precisely as “male and female.” It is God-given power for love and generativity that we must learn to gradually integrate ever more fully within our total selves. Our sexuality is a fundamental part of our being human. Therefore, it means so much more than the sexual act. The word “sex” does not simply refer to a specific act, or our doing, but also to our very dignity as persons, our being.

    7. The biblical bases of sexuality are love and pro-creation. In Genesis 2:18, the Lord God said: “It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him.” In addition, Matthew 19:4-5, states: “At the beginning, the Creator made them male and female and declared, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’ God also said in Genesis 1: 27f, 31: God created man in His image; in the divine image He created him; male and female He created them. God blessed them, saying: “Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it. God looked at everything He had made and he found it very good.”

    8. In order for a person to grow in chastity, he/ she must be someone who is a master of his/her sexual appetite, understands the true value of sexuality, disciplines his/her feelings and sexual drives and expresses his/her sexuality in accordance with God’s plan.

    9. The song “Marvin Gaye” talks about sex. It mentioned the term “kama sutra.” The Kama Sutra is an ancient Indian Hindu text widely considered to be the standard work on human sexual behavior in Sanskrit literature. A portion of the work consists of practical advice on sexual intercourse. It appears that this song wants to promote these kind of lustful acts. However, as responsible children of God, we must understand that sex is not merely the act. Our human sexuality is a gift, therefore, we must respect it.

    10. As I have said, we must be responsible children of God. This means that we must be mindful of what we post on social media. In reality, no one really cares if you were at the beach with your friends, or ate dinner with your boyfriend in a fancy restaurant. We should stop abusing the power of the internet. Many teens use it in a wrong way; they watch pornography, engage in sexting, and more. We have the freedom to do anything we want in social media, but we will be held liable/accountable for the things we do here. Use it wisely. I think that preaching or proclaiming the good news in social media platforms is a good idea. Instead of people posting statuses/tweeting about their love life or the latest gadgets released, we can post about bible verses or the gospel for that day. Through this, we are showing other people that we are proud of our God and that we are living a life committed to Him.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    -The nature theory is what we are born to be, either male or female as we are born with the corresponding part respective to each gender. It is all developed as we are born with these "instincts." Meanwhile the nurture theory is what we are raised to be that our environment dictates and influence our choices and actions.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    -Sigmund Freud's nature theory states that we are shaped by our biological nature and our behavior originates from her. There are also instincts formed and in two groups specifically, Eros (life-instinct) and Thanatos (death-instinct). While John Locke's nurture disagrees as each child is a "tabula rasa" or blank slate in which the environment and education shapes the child to act the way he or she is raised into. Their environment in which they are raised in helps them discover their identity.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    -From a biological standpoint men and women are differentiated by their sexual organs which develop during birth and through puberty. In social differences they are often differentiated by the way they dress, look and act.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    -It is seldom discussed because of our culture, we are often not comfortable talking about sexuality. It is only due to talk about when there is a situation presented in which sexuality is needed to be discussed.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    -It is viewed as essential dimension to a person, as it touches all aspects of a person. This is when he or she enters a relationship with another, because the "sexuality" described in the Christian view is more of like a feeling not a sexual act. This touches all aspects of a person as relationships tend to change people as they experience the presence and emotion of one another. It is also everything which makes a person a male or a female.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    -Human sexuality was given by God for us to show our love and generatively, as God's life is full of love and creativeness. It is also for us to gradually integrated wi our more whole selves. However this is not to be confused with the sexual act, it is merely the love each person shares to one another.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    -In the book of Genesis man and women were created to pro-create and "be fertile and multiply." From this plan of God it becomes our foundation to which we become and we relate to one another using our sexuality. We relate to each other as male or female through our physical traits, emotions, talents and abilities.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    -For a person to grow in chastity, he or she would need to learn what is true essence of what sexuality truly is. Sexuality these days are often described and depicted in a wrong way. When a person learns this at an early age he or she would be able to apply it as he or she grows up, growing in a life of chastity.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    -I was surprised as I only get to hear the song "Let's Marvin Gaye and Get it on" without knowing the true meaning of the lyrics and the content of the music video as it was discussed in CL. It was surprising to know that even in simple songs that no one really takes much time to process and truly understand that it would be used to transmit messages about popularizing sexual acts and sexual feelings.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    -To promote or revolutionize the social media outlets such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, there should be a a campaign in which it urges users to take action and take part of informing everyone on what sexuality truly is. I would promote the true and proper treatment of human sexuality by showing others that I support the belief in the correct and true virtues of which human sexuality stand for. Not for the depicted and wrongly shown meaning of human sexuality in today's situation.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    -The nature theory states that, we are what we are born to be. So if you're born a male, you should be everything a male does, nothing different. Whereas the nurture theory says that, its ones environment when they grow up that defines one person in becoming the person that they are.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    -Sigmund Freud was firm with his believe with the nature theory. He believes that our biological nature and features is what makes us who we are. While John Locke believed in the nurture theory, where in its ones environment and how they were raised as people that makes them who they are.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    -Biological is based on the physical differences a man and woman have, such as organs. While social differences is the differences in behaviour, preferences, etc. How they live their daily lives as people.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    -It is usually seldom discussed because it is a sensitive topic that may be sort of taboo to talk about openly, it is more of a more intimate topic.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    -Christian sexuality is the person as a whole, not just ones sexual preference. It is how one acts and lives as a person, his characteristics, morals, etc. Everything that makes your a male or female.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    -It is a gift from God because it makes us who we are. Without this, there would not be a difference with you and me. It makes us all unique.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    -In Genesis, it is stated how a male and female are made to procreate and how we rely on each other.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    -One must know his morals and have the strength to resist the temptations that they may come across, the best way to fight this is through prayer. God will always be there to help you.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    -This song objectifies human sexuality and makes it seem like something very shallow. It takes away the specialness of this gift that we have and makes it seem like something we just give away.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth
    -Simply by raising awareness of the different problems we have in society with articles, tweets, etc. There are so many things that need change in society. But honestly I believe the change must start with you before anyone else. Because you lead by example

    8. In order to grow in chastity, one must understand the true meaning of sexuality so he/she will understand how sacred the human body actually is. Next, he/she must control his/her sexual desires to prevent doing any action that lead him/her further from chastity. Lastly, he/she must nurture his/her relationships and avoid prejudice against others to be able to love without selfishness.

    9. Upon hearing Marvin Gaye, I realized that the topic of sexuality and sex are talked about more openly today than it was before. This shows that the seriousness and the true meaning of human sexuality is slowly disappearing in our society. It has come to the point where a part of society understands human sexuality as just the sexual act.

    10. I will express the proper treatment of human sexuality through some form of media such as videos, pictures, or even stories. The youth would definitely not read a paragraph or some random of post about the topic because they have not found importance yet. However, expressed in a form of media, the youth would take interest in it and could possibly relate to it. Thus, allowing the message to be relayed to them.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    These theories are ways to understand human sexuality. It was believed by American Psychological Association that homosexuality is a mental disorder. The main concept for this theory is to also determine the reasons behind one's homosexuality.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Sigmund Freud's theory states that human's sexuality is the center of one's personality. He also believed that one's genes and roots also affect a person's human sexuality. As for John Locke, he believes that our surroundings and people around us influence our sexuality. Our identity is formed by the environment that influences us.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Women mature earlier than men according to science studies but men tend to be more competitive and stronger than the women. Women are the ones who manage the house while the men are the breadwinners of the household.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    In my point of view, sexuality is rarely discussed openly not only in the family but also with others because this is one awkward topic especially with the younger ones. We were never oriented properly about sexuality by the family but I believe that we should because if we were oriented about this said topic then we'd avoid learning it by ourselves which may result to something else.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    God was the one who created sexuality core to the human experience. Christianity remains among the most “sex-positive” religions. Being attracted to the same sex isn't a sin unless they attempt to get pleasure out of it.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Human sexuality is created by God for both men and women to enable people to reproduce and expand the human race.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    Since human sexuality is a creation of God and gift to us, it's main purpose is to be able to multiply the human race and the marriage bond is done between a male and female in front of the altar because of love and that's where they are allowed to reproduce.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    Chastity is basically defined as a way for us to be able to control ourselves from sexual activities before marriage. We must have the knowledge and understand how sex is defined in the bible and by God. People see sex as a way to pleasure one's self but in the bible, that's not how it is. This act is sacred and a way to reproduce and is only allowed once married and having this knowledge, one can grow in chastity.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    This song was very catchy and surely a lot of people pretty much knows the song and who sang it. But once you read through the lines, you'll be able to understand that this song is actually about human sexuality and is basically talking about doing the deed before marriage which is against God. Nowadays, people wouldn't care and just produce this song for the whole world to hear because of the money and fame they'll earn and gain out of it.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    Nowadays, majority of the people (Especially the youth) have social media accounts as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc.... We can use these applications to orient of course educate people what's the true and proper treatment of human sexuality. One way to do so is to be able to come up with something eye catching and connect that to what our real task is because that's how things go viral all over the world.

    By: Rufus Ryland L. Albano, Junior-D, CN: 5

    Part 1 - #s 1 to 5

    1. Discuss the Nature vs. Nurture Theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    • The Nature vs. Nurture theory, in view of understanding human sexuality, states that interest in human sexuality typically increases when one reaches puberty. In relation to the Nature vs. Nurture Theory, some researchers believe that sexual behavior is determined by genetics, while others believe that this is molded by the environment.

    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of the Nature vs. Nurture Theory.
    • Sigmund Freud and John Locke have different contentions and beliefs of the Nature vs. Nurture Theory. Sigmund Freud believes that sexual drives are instinctive and that sexuality is the central source of human personality, which is the "nature argument". John Locke, on the other hand, believes that using his theory of the mind being seen as a "tabula rasa" or blank state, the environment in which one develops drives their sexuality, which is the "nurture argument".

    3. Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    • Men and women have various biological and social differences. Physically, girls seem to mature earlier than boys; while men tend to be physically stronger than women. Psycho-emotionally and spiritually, men tend to be competitive while women tend to be nurturing and protective. In a nutshell, while most women tend to do things out of genuine love and concern for people, men are generally more task oriented.

    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    • Sexuality is seldom discussed in the family because first, parents do not have the time to attend to their child or children's matters and second, some parents fail to assume their right and duty to educate their children about sexual matters because they may find talking about these matters as "awkward". In the end, teenagers end up thinking that sexuality is shameful and sinful.

    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    • The Christian view of sexuality views sexuality as an essential dimension of the whole person, by which he/she enters into a relationship with others. It views sexuality as God's gift to us and God-given power for love and generativity that we must learn to gradually integrate ever more fully within our total selves.

    Part 2 - #s 6 to 10

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?
    • Human Sexuality is a gift because we are created according to God's image as "male and female". It is not only solitude but rather in relating to others through our sexual natures that we share in God’s life of love and creativity.

    7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    • Human Sexuality is deeply rooted in the Bible, as evidenced by various Biblical passages and verses. For example, in Genesis 2:18, the Lord God said "It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him." Other verses, such as Matthew 19:4-5 and Genesis 1:27f, 31 shows evidence of Human Sexuality being deeply rooted in the Bible.

    8. How can a person grow in chastity?
    • By definition, "chastity" means being "pure", "not having any sexual relations before marriage" and "fidelity to husband or wife during marriage". For a person to grow in chastity, he must moderate his sexual desire, and make sure that reason, will and desire will work harmoniously together to do what is good. He must understand what sexuality truly means in the Words of God.

    9. Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get It On in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    • The song "Marvin Gaye" means "Let's have sex" when explained in the context of the LGBT Community. The said song is a depiction of Human Sexuality, albeit in a twisted way. Although the tune and beat of the song is catchy and creative, it depicts Human Sexuality simply as the act of having sex, between two (or more) people with the same or different gender, which is not true. Since this is commercialized music, I am truly and deeply worried about the people hearing and listening to it. They must first know what the true meaning of sexuality is. They must understand that Human Sexuality is not simply the act of having sex, but a complicated subject that must not be taken for granted.

    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as Twitter, Facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth?
    • In order for me to truly promote the true meaning and essence of Human Sexuality through various social media among the youth, I will respect their views and opinions. I will tell them in a respectful way what the true meaning of Human Sexuality is in the context of Christianity and the Word of God through private message (PM) or posting/sharing links and messages. Since social media is a powerful tool to disseminate information, it is sure that the true message and essence of Human Sexuality will be seen and read by many people.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Human sexuality can be viewed from two points, either nature or nurtured. If we were to understand human sexuality as nature, it means we were born with it, and outside phenomena have nothing to do with your sexuality. This can also mean God gave you your sexuality which means that he made you to be a boy, girl, gay, lesbian or etc...

    Nuture on the other hand means that your sexuality was adapted from those around you, the things the occur in your area, and the people you are friends with.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Simund Freud is more on the nature side, because he believes that we are born with our gender, meaning nothing outside has anything to do with our sexuality.

    John Locke's on the other hand believes that all of us are born as blank slates "tabula rasa" , or in my terms, a blank cd, who is able to be influenced by those around them which results in them to have a different sexuality than intended.
    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Biologically speaking, men are more prone to having deeper voices, more muscle mass, taller height and are usually heavier than a woman. Women on the other hand experience maturity of their bodies earlier in life usually starting at young teenage years or even pre teen years while males can develop it as late as up to 16 years old.
    Socially, men are more competitive and focused on what they put their mind to. They may show no mercy to people who are a hindrance to them thus resultign in some violent impulses. Women on the other hand are more caring and understanding most of the time and are more creative in most cases.
    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    Sexuality is seldom discussed among family because it gives an awkward situation among family member, because of the fact that they may reject you for who you really are and might punish you for it. On the act of sex, it is very awkward also because the child might not even know what it is in the first place, and might be even more prone to partake in the act rather than to avoid it.
    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Sexuality is the human itself with the personality, and mind. Their sexuality is what allows them to feel emotion and how to respond to whatever happens to them.
    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Human sexuality is a gift because it came from God. God gave us our sexuality because he knows what is best for us. It allows us to interact with people, and love people. Not only limited to sex, but sex is part of human sexuality, which allows a man and a woman to create a child, which is God's gift to both the parents as well. This is why human sexuality is a gift to us. In summary, it is us as a whole, without Human Sexuality, we are an empty being, not capable of doing anything.
    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    The Biblical basis of sexuality are love and pro-creation.
    Genesis 2:18 says "The Lord God said: “It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him.” which shows that God made man and woman in order for them to find a partner that they truly love and are ready to be with for the rest of their lives. Genesis 1: 27f, 31: God created man in His image; in the divine image He created him; male and female He created them. God blessed them, saying: “Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it. God looked at everything He had made and he found it very good.” which shows that God had always planned from the beginning our sexuality and has a mission assigned to every single one of us, which involves the use of our sexuality.

  25. 8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    In order to grow in chastity, one must be able to control his/her sexual urges and discipline his/herself for God's grace.
    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    The song Marvin Gaye, relates to Human Sexuality as it objectifies the image of human sexuality portraying it as something you can simply throw away. The term Kama Sutra was notably used in the song even though it is a sacred act of Indian people, which has just been used to objectify human sexuality. The song promotes sex and shows it off as something that is simple and holds no limits, which is why the song is very controversial.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I will promote/revolutionize the proper treatment of Human Sexuality on Facebook and Instagram by reminding people, in real life and on Facebook that they should not post any photo/video or comment which are all about promoting sex as an act that can be freely done. I will remind them also that they do not need to hide who they truly are when it comes to their choice of sexuality, be it gay, or lesbian (who are just newly accepted into society as a norm) especially in today's world where everyone is quick to judge. I will also start a campaign on Facebook/Instagram using (appropriate) photos which show the negatives of disrespecting human sexuality. This will hopefully open the eyes of those who see them.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory  in view of understanding human sexuality.
    * Nature is to do with us being sexually oriented at birth and that this would be how we would 'grow-up' as.
    * Nurture is more on sexual orientation being developed in a persons life and is affected by his/her/other social environment.

       2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    * Sigmund Freud discusses the Nature theory for sexual orientation, and that it is derived from instinct, which is arranged into 2 groups Eros(life instinct) and Thanatos(death instinct). According to him, sexual orientation is connected to human biology.
    * John Locke discusses the Nurture theory for sexual orientation, by it being developed throughout our lifetime, and that it is influenced by the social environment of a person.

       3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    * Biologically speaking, the straightforward difference between male and female is genitalia and secondary sex characteristics. The male has a penis, prostate gland, testicles, seminal vesicles, etc. The female has a vagina, uterus, ovaries, cervix, etc. differences also include voice, ave. height, puberty effects, etc.
    * Socially, women differ from men in aspects such as in social gatherings, how they react to different situations and what goes on in their minds.
      
    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    * A likely reason is that it may be taken as a taboo topic within a family setting.

       5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    * The Christian view of sexuality includes that we are more than our sexuality, but it is a part of us and it contributes to who we are.

       6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    * It is a gift since it enables us to interact in a more intimate manner with others.

       7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    * The bible discusses sexuality by means of mainly 2 genders, male and female. There are parts of the Bible however, that talk about homosexuality, such as leviticus which states "You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination." Which describes it as a bad act.

       8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    * A person can avoid sex, resist temptation and devote entirely to God.

       9.)  Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    * I found that the song may have several correlations with the many possible sexual orientations of an individual, and about having sex whenever desired.

    10.)  How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.    
    * Example: A way may be to share a post to do with God, and relate that with human sexuality in a description. Also commenting on posts such as these promoting a Christian view of sexuality can be good.

    8.) For a person to grow in chastity, they must understand their sexuality, and respect their own and other's bodies. They must also avoid giving in to their temptations. Human sexuality is God's gift and we must follow what God has planned for us, and that is that sexual intimacy is only limited to those in marriage.


    9.) The song title itself is a term the lgbt community has coined. It means "to have sex". This song can relate to our topic in many ways because the meaning of the song is wanting to be intimate with one another. I think for me, it shows how we should appreciate our sexuality because it is God's gift to us. We shouldn't waste ourselves and give in to temptation. A lot of songs nowadays have suggestive meanings, which can influence our generation to think that sexuality isn't a big deal.


    10.) I would post the church's meaning of human sexuality. It would remind people, or inform those who do not know, that sexuality should not be taken lightly and should be respected by all. Because it is social media, not everyone would agree since we all have different opinions, but it would be nice to just show the true meaning of human sexuality.

    1. The nature vs nurture theory states that either, our sexual behaviors are determined by our genetics (nature) or that said behaviors are influenced by the kind of environment we grew up in.

    2. Sigmund Freud was a supporter of the nature argument regarding human sexuality, and also had a theory that said that human behaviors were rooted by our biology, and that we were primary motivated by instinct.
    He also categorized our instincts into Eros (life instinct) and Thanatos (death instinct).
    John Locke on the other hand, disagreed with the idea that we had innate differences, and instead stated that we were shaped by the social environment we were raised in, especially our education.
    He also believed that an accurate idea of a child's mind would be a "tabula rasa" or blank slate, meaning whatever goes into the mind comes from the environment.

    3. Biologically, you have the genitalia, the secondary sexual characteristics. and how different certain parts of our body develop as time passes. (Ex the voice, breasts, limbs and so on.)
    Socially, men and women generally have different reactions to situations and of course, differ in how their minds work as well.

    4. Generally, discussing sexuality (or anything sexual really) is rather awkward to talk about with family.
    Or it's simply taboo.

    5. For Christians, sexuality is but a part (a significant one, but still only a piece) of a whole person.
    Said part being the point in one's life where they enter a relationship with another person.

    6. Basically, sexuality is a gift since it is a gift from God that allows us to act intimate with another person.

    7. The Bible discusses sexuality through the two genders, of male and female.
    And there are also parts of the Bible that discuss homosexuality, however, it should be noted that it does not specifically condemn all homosexuals, rather it condemns the ones that engage in the act of sex between homosexuals.

    8. For a person to grow in chastity, they would need to not give in to their sexual urges, resist temptation and understand what sexuality actually means.

    9. A proper reaction to the video from me, would be fair amounts of laughter at how over the top the "sex" was through out the video.
    And in relation to our topic, I can definitely say that this song is simply a product of a generation where "sex sells" and sex is treated with (more or less) indifferences.
    Which is hardly a good thing, morally or in regards to religion.

    10. With the internet being the way it is (people not really paying much attention to religion related posts, or simply dismissing you as a "religious nut head" if you get too preachy online), I think taking small steps would be the best way to spread the church's meaning of sexuality.
    No need to make post after post of religion and sexuality, just one every once in a while should work good enough.

    1. Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Ans: Based on the researchers, nature vs nurture theory states that a person sexual behavior is shaped by her foundations. The foundations could either be the genetics of the person or the type of environment the person lives in. His/her human sexuality could be determined on how the person drew up which is her foundations.


    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Ans: Sigmund Freud theory states that our human sexuality is based on the persons genetics or personality. Like we inherit the traits of our parents or how our actions are. John Locke's theory states that our human sexuality is based on our experiences or our environment growing up. Like the physical and mental things the person is experiencing based on her surroundings.


    3. Discuss biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Ans: Men tend to be stronger and more competitive than the women. While women tend to be more mature than men and they tend to be nurturing and protective. An example would be: Men working at the field while women are at home keeping the house tidy and clean.


    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Ans: Sexuality is a seldom discussed topic because it is awkward or either could be the parents are busy with their work. It is awkward because why would you start a conversation about sexuality? Right? It would just be weird and our parents would have to make up answers than to talk seriously about it. Another is that they are busy, parents theses days tend to have no time to spend with their children because of work. As a result parents miss the opportunity to talk about their sexuality and kids now tend to think of it as sinful or shameful.


    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Ans: For Christians, sexuality is what symbolizes the whole person. Whether it may be a male or a female, their sexuality determines how their relationship is going to be with their significant other.

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?

    Ans: Human sexuality is a gift from God because it is the one that would help grow the human race. Human sexuality is a gift from God because it is what makes us unique from one another.


    7. Discuss the biblical basis of sexuality.

    Ans: The biblical basis states that we should grow and love with our significant other and produce a beautiful fruit which is an offspring. It also states that only a male and female can produce an offspring and not of the same gender.


    8. How can a person grow in chastity?

    Ans: A person can grow in chastity, if they understand his/her own sexuality and respect others sexuality. The person must avoid the temptations and must think first before doing the action. Human sexuality is Gods gift, we must respect it and only use it if you find your significant other who you will get married to and grow old together.


    9. Give your reflection in view of the song Let's Marvin Gaye and get it on in relation to our topic human sexuality.

    Ans: The song talks about people having sex and not just the opposite gender but the same gender as well. The song had a very catchy and creative tune which gave them many listeners and views. Most people don't know the meaning of the song and just listen to it. Imagine a child singing to it in front of many adults, wouldn't that be embarrassing? Anyways, we should listen and understand the song because the message could either help us or could teach us the wrong things. The song takes a way the gift of human sexuality and treats it like a toy. The song objectifies human sexuality because it talks about making love without meaning.


    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as Twitter and Facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth?

    Ans: I will educate our youth by making articles and posts that would increase awareness in the importance of human sexuality. We shall post true and proper treatment of human sexuality from the teachings of the bible and not the false or half-true answers that teens or children have been receiving online.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    By general definition, nature refers to to an inborn trait – something that could be explained by biology; it is assumed that we are born with a certain sexuality. Nurture, on the other hand, refers to the how we were raised and the external factors that could’ve contributed to the sexuality that we embody.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    According to Sigmund Freud, human behaviour was rooted in biology. Likewise, he believed that instincts are the primary reason on how we think and act. There are two groups that divide these instincts: Eros and Thanatos. Eros, the life instinct, is the instinct responsible for sexual drive whereas Thanatos, the death instinct, is the one responsible for extreme emotions such as aggression, self-destruction and cruelty.

    John Locke had the opposite perspective – according to him, people are shaped strongly by their social environments, particularly by education. He considers the human mind as a blank slate that would eventually be filled through constant interaction with our surroundings.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Based on accustomed gender roles, a man is expected to be a family’s breadwinner – task-oriented, competitive and physically stronger. A woman is expected to stay at home and take care of her family. However, due to social changes, these roles are eventually fading and both genders are entitled to do whatever they can as long as they have the capacity to do so. Today, house husband aren’t new to the environment as well as women who serve as their family’s breadwinner.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    Due to popular culture, sexuality is often associated to the sexual act itself. As a result, most may view the topic as taboo and uncomfortable to discuss especially within a family. In the Philippines, for instance, culture has accustomed its natives to follow its conservative views and bringing up these topics often requires effort and an open mind.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Contrary to popular belief, sexuality does not only refer to the act, but rather to the wholebeing of an individual. Our personality, beliefs and behaviour play a huge role in our sexuality; Christianity highlights on how it distinguishes us beyond the normal gender definitions and how it’s a fundamental part of our being human.

    ReplyDelete
  36. 6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Human sexuality may also refer to our dignity. It is what defines us – in the way we speak, how we relate to other people, the way we make decisions and our capacity to handle our emotions. According to the Catholic Church, every man and woman should acknowledge and accept his/her sexual identity; differences may be established but these are necessary toward the goods of marriage and the flourishing of family life.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    The Bible explicitly states how God created man and woman, how procreation is part of human nature. Every individual is created in His image and likeness – we were made out of His love.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    A person can grow in chastity through the abstinence of any sexual activity before marriage. This could be done through spiritual discipline and through the understanding of the true value of sexuality in accordance with God’s plan.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    The song Marvin Gaye portrays how sex is perceived nowadays – something casual or generally normal. Personally, it ruins the real image of what the act is supposed to be and it’s shameful how media depicts it otherwise.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    It’s all about self-control – as dignified humans, we must know our limitations especially in social media. There are certain things that must be kept private, not just with yourself, but with others as well. We should be mindful of what we post, share and even react to online as it may contribute to abuse in any form.

    1. Discuss nature vs. nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - Nature theory is defined is when human sexuality is embedded in our instincts and genes, while nurture theory is when our sexual behavior is influenced by our environment and exposure to different people.

    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs. nurture.
    - Sigmund Freud believes that our sexual drives are instinctive and rooted in our biology. Moreover, he proposed that our instincts are the principal motivating forces in the mental realm. Freud also concluded that our instincts have two major groups: Eros (the life instinct) and Thanatos (the death instinct). Whereas John Locke argued that people are shaped by their social environments. He proposed that a child's mind is a blank slate or "tabula rasa." As children develop, they discover their identity.

    3. Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    - Biologically, girls mature earlier than boys while men tend to be stronger than women. Socially, men are expected to be the breadwinner of their families, while women are expected to manage their home.

    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family.
    - Sexuality is a very explicit subject. Thus, making the parents feel uncomfortable or awkward when they talk about it with their children. However, I believe that it would be more appropriate if the parents had "the talk" with their kids because it would be more suitable if the information came from people with more experience and understanding.

    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    - The Christian view of sexuality is that sexuality signifies an essential dimension of the whole person. Christians see human sexuality as a gift and that sexuality is different from sex.

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - Human sexuality is a God-given power of love and generavity. He gave us the gift of freedom to become whoever and whatever we want to be. It is a gift because there are no boundaries to creating ourselves and to share that experience with another person. Human sexuality isn't just a physical connection, but an emotional connection as well; because we share a part of ourselves with another person. Our sexuality makes us human and it is a fundamental part of being human.

    7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - In the beginning, God created man and woman and told them to be fertile and multiply. According to the Scriptures, He created them to love each other. Naturally, the passage tells us that we must love our partner and be bounded by love, before we get reproduce.

    8. How can a person grow in chastity?
    - Chastity is the act not having sexual relations before marriage, as well as staying faithful to your partner during marriage. A person can grow in chastity by having control over their sexual urges until they get married. Furthermore, they have to remain faithful to their partner in order to understand the true value of sexuality.

    9. Give your reaction in view of the song "Let's Marvin Gaye and Get It On" in relation to our topic: Human sexuality.
    - Once you hear the song, you would immediately get the message that it's about sex because most people commercialize sex in the industry. I am disappointed by the song because it shows that our generation does not see the value and sacredness of making love. I believe that sex is an not only a physical connection, but an emotional connection as well; because you're at a vulnerable state that only you and your partner would be able to experience with each other.


    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram as regards the true prayer and proper treatment of Human Sexuality, most especially among the youth.
    - I would use this medium to spread the Good News and to set an example for others by being responsible and using social media wisely. Second, I would support the LGBT community and spread the love to those who need it. Lastly, I would post articles and raise awareness so that we could change society.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    Nature is basically showing the given side of human sexuality in such a way that we are born with certain traits that will divide us into a certain section in human society. It's basically God's way of putting you together as you enter into the world. Nurture though speaks to show that our sexual ways are based on how we grow which goes to show that the places where we are and our surroundings form our sexuality.

       2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Sigmund Freud basically bases our human sexuality based on personality and based it on the fact that our behavior is the root. On the other hand John Locke believes we are shaped by our surroundings, or in the idea of nurture. Wherein we are in a blank state but then as we grow our thoughts and ideas are influenced by who and what surrounds us.

       3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    In summary for both biological and social differences:
    Men - Physically stronger than women, are competitive and are the hand and feet of the family/the workers who provide for their family.
    Women - Mature faster than men, are nurturing and protective, and are the mind and heart of the family as they provide home management.

       4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    This is due to the fact that it is hard to talk about as it's called awkward by most and because of the fact that it is seen as a taboo or as something shameful to often talk about. Parents often fail to discuss this with their children due to many reasons, although when the time comes they will eventually.

       5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Christianity views sexuality emphasizes and focuses on a person by which that person has a relationship with others. This God-given gift is what allows love to flow around and interactions to come and go.

    ReplyDelete
  40. 6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    It allows us to come along and interact with our neighbors and to be in relationships with them. It's a fundamental part of being a human being and it also serves as our dignity as beings.

       7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    The biblical basis of sexuality can be seen in 2 perspectives, for love and pro-creation.
    For love we can see this in Matthew 19:4-5 and Genesis 2:18, what we see is that God didn't want man to be alone so He created the "suitable partner" for him which is now the woman. In these excerpts, we also see that He created them from one flesh so that they may unite and be one when the time comes that they go together.
    Matthew 19:4-5
    Jesus replied: “At the beginning the Creator made them male and female and declared, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’ ”
    Genesis 2:18
    The Lord God said: “It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him.”
    For procreation, we can see this in Genisis 1:27f,31 where it is discussed that as God created us, He also wants us to multiply and fill the Earth. We are created in His own divine likeness in which we must live up to it and continue passing it on by multiplying.
    Genesis 1:27f, 31
    God created man in His image; in the divine image He created him; male and female He created them.
    God blessed them, saying: “Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it. . . . God looked at everything He had made and he found it very good.”

       8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    A person can grow in chastity if he or she chooses to stay and wait for marriage before having sex. But take note it's not all about waiting for marriage before having sex as chastity also refers to keeping himself or herself faithful to his partner and to not cheat on said person with anyone.

       9.)  Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    I believe it's a nice song, very catchy and well composed. Although, the message clearly shows the use of commercialized sex. They talk about sex and your inner desires to release them and it shows how much of the media commercializes sex just like that.

    10.)  How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.    
    I'd openly just talk about sex and share to the world my thoughts about it. The truth in human sexuality is that there is no shame in talking about it and we basically just have to look into ourselves to see that it's actually one of God's greatest gifts of all. For anyone who needs sexual guidance and help can come to me as I continue to spread the word out of Human Sexuality in all forms of social media.

    1. Discuss nature vs. nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - Nature theory is when human sexuality becomes present from the day that we are born, and is present in our genes, while nurture theory is when our sexual behavior is influenced by our environment and the people we meet.

    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs. nurture.
    - Sigmund Freud states that our sexuality is locked to our genes and roots from the day we are born. He has also stated that our instincts have two major groups, which are Eros (life) and Thanatos (death). However, John Locke says that our sexuality is shaped by our experiences and environment. He also proposed that a child's mind is a blank slate or "tabula rasa." This tells us that when a child develops through the years, they also discover their sexuality.

    3. Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    - In biological terms, women are said to mature earlier than men, while men are naturally stronger than women. In social terms, men are expected to make money and income while the women are expected to take care of the house and such.

    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family.
    - Sexuality is a subject that is quite uncomfortable to talk about, even without the family. Discussing it might make the parents or the children feel awkward.

    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    - The Christian view of sexuality is that sexuality is one of the biggest parts of a human's life. We see human sexuality as a wonderful gift from God.

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - We were put into this world for a reason, which is to take care of the earth and reproduce. Human sexuality is a gift because we are blessed with the ability to love, and to share that love with another being. Our sexuality becomes our identity, and it is what makes us human.

    7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - In the beginning, God created Adam and Eve and told them to multiply and reproduce. According to the Scriptures, He created them to love each other. This becomes an example to us and shows us that we must love our partner.

    8. How can a person grow in chastity?
    - Chastity is said to be the act of not having sexual activity before marriage, and staying faithful to your partner. A person can grow in chastity by having control over their sexual urges until they get married. In addition, they must also remain faithful to their partners, and not do unfaithful acts.

    9. Give your reaction in view of the song "Let's Marvin Gaye and Get It On" in relation to our topic: Human sexuality.
    - When I first heard the song, I could immediately tell that it was all about sexual activity. It gives people the idea that sexual intercourse is just for fun. This is not good because there's more to it than just that. It is a way of showing our love to our partners. This song shows that some people in our generation do not value the sacredness of human sexuality.

    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram as regards the true prayer and proper treatment of Human Sexuality, most especially among the youth.
    - I would use social media as a way to spread the Word of God and become an example for everyone else. I will not post harmful articles, instead I will start posting things that may educate Human sexuality to other people.

    Questions 1-5
    1.) Nature: As the name states, human sexuality is viewed as something that comes off as “second nature” where our sexual behavior comes from genetics and innate characteristics.
    Nurture: On the other hand, the nurture theory states that human sexuality does not come from second nature but rather that it is harnessed and developed through our experiences as we grow in maturity.

    2.) Freud: He believed more on nature over nurture as he states that human sexuality mainly comprises of our personality, thus human sexuality in his claim is something innate.
    Locke: Meanwhile, Locke was more on nurture’s side as he believed that it is what surrounds us‒our environment‒that morphs our sexuality. Whatever is prominent around us influences us as a whole as well.

    3.) Man: Men are more physically built than women. Additionally, they are also more task-oriented and competitive
    Woman: Women, on the other hand, are more spiritually mature than men. They are known to be the ones managing the household as they are more on the nurturing and loving type

    4.) Sexuality is seldomly discussed in the family because parents fail to properly educate their children on such matters either because they simply don’t have the time do so due to work or that they sense a fear that their children may not be able to understand it so quickly or cope with an alien topic.

    5.) Christianity views sexuality as a key aspect of a person as it is considered as God’s gift to us as he shows his love through loving ourselves and others, especially under the component of entering a relationship with another.

    Questions 6-10
    6.) Human sexuality is greatly considered as a gift by God because it shows we are made according to God’s image. Furthermore, sexuality also convenes to our identity and calling to God’s love and generativity that integrates with ourselves.

    7.) Sexuality has long been a topic of discussion and concern in the bible with accounts from the book of Genesis such as one passage where God says that “it is not good that man will be alone. I will make him a suitable partner,” thus, hinting to the opening of sexuality in the bible and its other passages.

    8.) A person grows in chastity when he or she controls his or herself against temptations on sexuality and the like. By doing so he or she must keep a life of purity by not having any sexual relations before marriage and that his or her will and desire must work together in harmony to better understand God’s take on sexuality.

    9.) The song does not blatantly talk of the topic of sexuality right then and there but rather the message and theme of it is shown subtly through the lyrics of the song. It talks of having the act of sex to one or two more people, regardless of gender. This song may possibly be talking of the LGBT community as well as the heterosexual community and acts as if sexual actions are a mere talk to pass time and is not to be considered as “totally awkward” as its catchy beat and lyrics draw a provocative feeling to listeners to try on sex. Although it is inevitable to abolish songs from producing such messages, it is important to take note that these are simply the works of artists in the industry of music and SHOULD NOT always be taken literally.

    10.) It all boils down to a matter of respect: respect for the composers and artists who come up with such songs and lyrics, respect for people who are simply fans or lovers of composers who create amazing music, and respect for those who are not a fan of such genres. As people may come off to be sensitive nowadays and that they head right on to social media to discuss how they are feeling, it is best to simply give respect to the person’s opinion but it also just as important to give your own opinions as well. It’s all a matter of getting opinion, sharing your own and accepting sensible pieces of reflection. Sharing insightful opinions may also be of help in spreading the true and proper treatment of human sexuality as some people nowadays tend to get the wrong idea of things also because of social media itself. Social media can either be a tool or a detriment to us so long as we know how to use it for the better good.

    I can promote the true meaning of Human Sexuality using social media by simply educating them of what Human Sexuality is. Since the music industry is now very popular we should show them the music video of Marvin Gaye, and tell them that this is not directly Human Sexuality. Human Sexuality is the relationship that you make when you bond with your loved ones.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory  in view of understanding human sexuality.
    -Nature is our behavior on sexuality based on our own characteristics or genes. Nurture is based on the environment or the things that surround us .

       2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    -Nuture according to Lock is a “blank slate,” Nurture attributes our development to environmental forces. For Freud, He believed that biological instincts provide an unconscious motivation that ultimately shapes human development.The Ego side is rational and aims to find realistic ways to satisfy our instincts.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    -Males are expected to be independent, assertive, and competitive; females are expected to be more passive, sensitive, and supportive  

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    - Sexuality is barely discussed openly in the family because many people do it for pleasure which is a sin. The parents wouldn't wanna talk about it with their children because of course, they wouldn't want their children to be engaging in this.

       5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    -sexuality is meant for love and procreation which means marriage. Sex just for pleasure is a sin because it gives away the chastity in you.

       6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    -Human sexuality is a gift because its for procreation, family, homosexuality and others. We are created in Gods image, male and female, we must use this to fill the earth like God wanted

       7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    -God gave sexuality to us as a means of glorifying and procreation. He wanted us to multiply and fill the earth. Basically, the purpose is to glorify God, bring forth children, express intimacy, provide comfort, and bless the spouse.

       8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    -A person can grow in chastity if they control their lustful actions. You must not have sexual intercourse and activity before marriage. Even if you are married, you must have control with your actions and value what you have.

       9.)  Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    -In my opinion, I think that the song is very straight forward and simply talks about sex. Obviously you can already tell once you listen to it. However I think it offends human sexuality in a way because they don't take it and mean it as a gift in the song.

    10.)  How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    - I would promote human sexuality by simply raising awareness about what human sexuality actually means. Nowadays people don't know the true meaning of it and that its actually a gift. Also, they just judge everyone about their sexuality and abuse sex. So, I would like to make articles and posts regarding the proper definition and a campaign to get support from everyone to raise this topic.

    1. Discuss nature vs. nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    There is a significant difference between nature and nurture. Nature is perceived as a characteristic one is born with. It is the human instinct of one’s preference. On the other hand, nurture is the development of one’s sexuality based on experience, beliefs, or by the influence of others.

    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs. nurture.
    In the eyes of Freud, he depicts that a person’s human sexuality is based on their own natural being. It is based on how a person acts or their behavior towards certain beliefs. Locke believes that human sexuality is embodied based on how a person is influenced by nurture, wherein he/she is shaped through experience and the behavioral tendencies of others.

    3. Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    BIOLOGICAL: Men are commonly described to be more physically fit than women, normally perceived as the worker/provider for his family. Women are often depicted as the foundation for a happy home for they are the manager of one’s home life.
    SOCIAL: Whilst men are opened to more opportunities, women are not. Society shows that men are given more job opportunities than women. In addition, women are expected to manage home life while men are to provide for the family by working. Based on social skills, it is a common belief that women mature much faster than men, and are often sociable towards those around them.

    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    In my opinion, sexuality is seldom discussed openly by the family because of fear of misunderstanding. In the eyes of children, especially those who are homosexual, they are afraid that their own parents will not be able to fully comprehend their child’s decision, which they often mistaken as a “phase.”

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Nature theory means that our sexual behavior comes from our parents or it is what we were born with while nurture is the sexual behavior we get from experiences and influences that we have learned as we grow older.

    2) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Sigmund Freud believed in nature, he believes that sexual orientation comes from our instincts and it is biologically formed , from our parents while, John Locke believed in nurture in which people are developed by their surroundings and the social environment.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Women usually mature earlier than men and they are more protective while men are physically stronger and more competitive than women. They have social differences like reacting differently to certain things and may have different attitude.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality may be an uncomfortable topic to discuss with the family so children tend to get educated by it because of media, friends, etc. This is also because some parents may think that it is bad to talk about sexuality with their children.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Sexuality is the gift that we get from God which shows how different genders interact with each other.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    Human sexuality is a gift from God because he wants us to pro create, and to develop more human beings, and this is how we can show our love for others.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    The Bible states how God created man and he gave him a partner which is a woman so that he could feel love and so that they could be "one".

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity by not having any sexual relations before marriage. They should know that they need to have disciplined and to not get tempted to have sexual relations before getting married because that is what God wants us to do.

    9.) Give your reflection in view of the song Let's Marvin Gaye and get it on in relation to our topic human sexuality.

    The song Marvin Gaye is all about sexuality and even though it is a nice song, the lyrics and the video does not think of sex as a gift from God. They are commercializing sex and they are showing what sex is in media. The song talks about how we have the desire to have sex and it shows that it is not about love but it is about the desire to do it.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I can promote the true meaning of Human Sexuality using social media by simply educating them of what Human Sexuality is. Since social media is something that is being used by a lot of people even the youth, I will teach them that the topic sexuality is something that should be taken seriously and it is a gift from God

    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    In Christian beliefs, sexuality is viewed as gift from God, for it is the fundamental being of a person to start certain relationships with others. Nowadays, society often believes that the Church is against homosexual relationship when it has been known that they have accepted that there are different kinds of love. However, it is the act that is condemned for it is seen as anti-life.

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Human sexuality is a gift because it is the opportunity to procreate and give life. It is the blessing given to us in order to show love and compassion towards the ones we love the most.

    7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    Genesis 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall join to his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
    The Bible states that God created man and woman. With this, He has given mankind the gift of life and to create life. Therefore, as God implied, man and woman shall be one with flesh when the times come to create life.

    8. How can a person grow in chastity?

    Chastity means the state from refraining from all sexual activity. I believe a person can grow in chastity through the person he/she surrounds themselves with. It also comes from the help of a person’s beliefs and how one is nurtured.


    9. Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    Although the song does not blatantly talk about sexual intercourse, it is the intended message through its lyrics. The song speaks of how sex is usually confused as love and can be practiced with any gender identity. However, the song not only is a controversial way of depicting sex, it is commercializing it. Songs like Marvin Gaye is a way to provoke or tell people that it is okay to practice premarital sex.

    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    Social media is a source of entertainment young adults turn to nowadays. It is a way of expressing themselves and their beliefs. This is why I believe that social media is a effective way to vocalize the truth about human sexuality and its real meaning. Although there social media has its perks, it has its downfalls as well. Through this, people have more access to those who practice sexual activities despite age and relationship status. This is why it is necessary to use this as a way to truly speak about what God has given us and what we are allowed to do.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Human Sexuality in my view is us people limiting ourselves from having all of these acts of sexuality. The Nature debate in view of human sexuality is based on biology. It is mostly influenced by our instincts. Whereas the Nuture debate in view of human sexuality says that this act is brought into us by the outside forces that we encounter everday.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Sigmund Freud's contention says that he believed that sexual drives are "instinctive and viewed sexuality as the central source of human personality". John Lock's contention says that his contention is being viewed as a "tabula rasa" or blank state in where someone develops their own sexuality.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Physical: Women mature in an earlier stage than boys.

    Spiritual: Men get more competitive than women but women become more protective.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality is seldomly discussed with the family because people tend to limit what they say in their families since there could be consequences from what people say to their family.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    The Christian view of sexuality states that us humans are naturally sinful and loving. This means that even if we commit all these sins to the Lord, he still loves us from all the imperfections us humans have even if we are his creations.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    Human sexuality is a gift because God gave us this gift so that we may be able to help him with his creations.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    The Bible basis of sexuality in brief is no "pre-martial sex". In the bible the rule is that you can do these acts of sexuality once you have been married to a person.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity by really knowing what sex is and why God has made this act.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    The song really gave me a shocking reaction because I didn't really know the song and what it means not until I listened to it. I was shockes since I didn't know that "Let's Marvin Gaye and Get in on" means that two people will have sex. It is a really shocking song but there is a stand for what it means.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I will share videos, links, and more promoting about the proper treatment of Human Sexuality since the youth now use social media a lot.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    Nature is learning what sex is through our parents and other natural ways while nurture is learning what sex is through your own experience.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Sigmund Freud believed that sex comes from our instincts. John Locke believed in nurture when people experience sex and its meaning.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Man is the stronger one physically and the Woman is the worker of the house. Socially, the Men are more "powerful" becaause there are more jobs open to them.
    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    Some people think sex is inappropriate and weird but it is just a way to reproduce and people overthink it.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Sexuality is a gift from God and helps us socialize and give new life in this world.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    It gave us a way to reproduce and it helped us understand what its like to feel responsible.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    In the Creation story, God gave Man (Adam) a wife (Eve) to procreate life. This shows us that Sexuality is needed in order to make new life.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    A person can grow in chastity by being conservative and being patient, this will cause us to become better people and this would also save our body for our true love.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    I think the song is nice but then the video only shows sexual interactions through the song lyrics. It hints of sex and how love is confused to sex.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    Social Media is something that can help us express what we feel and this can be one way of showing the truth of sexuality because we get to voice out our opinions.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory  in view of understanding human sexuality.

    The nature VS nurture theory is exactly as it means. It is the social debate on where and how our human sexuality begins and develops. People argue that human sexuality is an inborn trait, where it is completely dependent on our X and Y chromosomes. If a person has an excess X or Y chromosome, it is said that his/her sexual orientation is that of homosexuality. This is the "nature" theory of human sexuality. Opposite of that is the "nurture" theory. This is where people oppose the idea of human sexuality being an "inborn" trait and say that it is developed through a person's experiences and social environment.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Freud proclaimed that human sexuality is based purely on a persons INSTINCT, not by the "nurturing" theory. He said that a person's sexuality comes from his/her "Eros" instinct, or his instinct of life. So, reproduction or a person's need for sexual pleasure is based on this instinct and thus, human sexuality is born. On the other hand, Locke stated that a person's sexuality, or his/her personality as a WHOLE, is based on the environment that person has been exposed to. That, like a blank canvas (tabula rasa), a person's wellbeing is molded by his/her surroundings.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    The biological differences between the two genders is that, one, the sexual organs of a man and woman are different. Two, a woman generally develops menstruation as she gets older, and will soon develop her mammary glands as well (breasts). In contrast, the social differences of the two may vary depending on the personality of a person. However, it is stereotyped that a man is more competitive while a woman is more caring. Although, this is not to say that a man can't be caring and a woman competitive; it really depends on the person.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    In some cases, it is because the child is afraid to talk about his/her sexuality in fear of being rejected/disowned/beaten by the parents. Other times, it is because this topic is neglected or never openly discussed.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    The Christian view of sexuality is seen as a part of a person's identity. It is what helps a person form a relationship with another person (not necessarily a romantic relationship).

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    It is what gives us our identity. We, humans, are created in God's likelihood, and human sexuality gives us the opportunity to share our love with others like how God loves us.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    It is stated multiple times in the Bible that, when man was created in God's likeness, God created an equal opposite—women—to roam the earth alongside him. They were commanded by the Lord to make the earth fertile and subdue the earth. There are no other sexuality mentioned except for a man and a woman, male and female.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    One must be in full control of his/her body — mind over body. As humans, we must fully understand the concepts and consequences when it comes to sexual intercourse, as well as our OWN lustful desires. Once we fully understand how we, OURSELVES, work, we would have the ability to prevent and/or control ourselves from lustful exploitations. We have to respect our bodies, for as we were taught, our bodies is a sacred temple. We must spread this kind of teaching to others, most especially to the youth (thank goodness for chastity talks!).

    9.)  Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    For me, it's as if we are neglecting the whole sacredness of sex. Not to say that sex is something that should be glorified, it's more like a practice of fidelity to a loved one. The song is treating sex as if it is what keeps a person together. It showcases infidelity, lust, cheating — just overall sexual desire over one's BODY. It shows a person's eagerness to take one's virginity, and that it is OKAY to do such a thing without being married. It's actually shown throughout the song, but here's an example:

    "We got this king size to ourselves
    Don't have to share with no one else
    Don't keep your secrets to yourself
    It's kama sutra show and tell"

    10.)  How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.    

    There are always videos and sites online that share useful information about human sexuality, sex, chastity and many more. I'd share any information that I believe would help spread the word about human sexuality! Since social media is such a broad tool to share information, it'd be easy to administrate pages and/or start a hashtag to keep track of the info we share! We just need people to follow, and the word will spread.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    In the view of understanding human sexuality; nature is more on the sexual drives or interest of humans, including their behavior that influences it as well. Nurture is more of how this is influenced by the factors of the outside world – specifically the environment we surrounded by.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Sigmund Freud believed about how sexual drives are instinctive and he viewed sexuality as the central source of human personality. The instincts serve as "principal motivating forces in the mental health". There is a reduction of these instincts into two broad groups - the Eros which is the life instinct that covers all the self-preserving and erotic instincts + the Thanatos (the death instinct), the one that covers towards aggression, self-destruction, and cruelty. For John Locke; he believed in the nurture argument with the use of his own theory of the mind (tabula rasa meaning blank slate); environment where one develops drives their sexuality. Another is that he has the argument of how "people are shaped strongly by their social environments".

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    For the biological difference between men and women – women mature earlier than men, although the men have the tendency to be physically stronger than women. For the social difference, it has been said that the men can be more competitive while women are more protective and nurturing.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality is seldom discussed openly in the family because mainly, it is indeed a sensitive topic. There are tendencies wherein we feel uncomfortable and this can make it awkward to talk about with the family. The thing is, it also depends on the openness of each individual in the family. Another is the factor of each’s opinion and their extent of context and understanding about the topic itself.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    In the Christian view of sexuality, it shows that there is the creation of male and female by God. We were created to be relational beings. In which, sexuality takes its part. There is a unique relationship between a man and woman – with the involvement of intimacy.

  55. 6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    The reason why that human sexuality is a gift is because this came from God and gave it to both man and woman. This also interrelates to the procreation and in which, God shows us that we are really blessed to have received such.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    As read in Genesis in the Bible; in the beginning, God created male and female in His image. They were told to be fertile and to multiply and this shows that they have loved each other and multiplied to let the world be filled with their procreation. The man and the woman are bounded by love before reproduction.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity by having self-control and conscience. Another is that, the person should have understanding about the concept of sex and what it really is; coming from God’s words. One must also extrapolate these concepts and relate it with the teachings of God. We must not give in to our temptations.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    The song, first of all; it showed that how in the music industry already has songs about such topic and how it also changed the perceptions of media and the industry and people’s ideas about human sexuality as well. In relation with human sexuality, it shows how temptations can get us too far and if we give in; things would pretty mess up. The kind of perception it shows is the meaning of sex in the literal manner and shows only a shallow understanding of human sexuality.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I will promote and revolutionize the social media with regards to the proper treatment of human sexuality, most especially among the youth; by spreading the concept of how sexuality is not only just concerning about the act itself; but what the meaning of it really is. I would give people as heads up about my opinions and let others listen to one another about what we all think as individuals to clarify and clear the air. I would say that sexuality is something you shouldn’t be ashamed. Now with the youth, I would do that with regards to them because yes, it is better to know about it than knowing it later on. The clarifications of the misconceptions of what human sexuality is important, in which, I would put compromise in to clear it up. Articles about such topic will be made for it. My objective is to raise awareness for society to be informed about it.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - Since we are created in God's likeness, we shouldn't think of it as a bad thing, it's God's gift to us. It's the ability to create new life/procreate, which we call it "the gift of life".

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - Genesis 2:18 talks about love, that no one was created to be alone. God will make a suitable partner for everyone, so then we can continue to procreate and share the good news for generations.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    - According to Jesus, a person can grow in chastity if they show respect and sincerity to every one and to be confident in his/her words or actions.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    - The song talks about sexual intercourse but DOESNT talk entirely about human sexuality. The lyrics shouldn't be taken literally as it means that two people will have or are wanting sexual intercourse, literally. Human sexuality is defined as someone being sexually attracted to another depending on their sexual orientation, if you look at the song once again, it doesn't really show how people are sexually attracted to one another but instead how they are invested into having intercourse instead. It discusses the interaction but not the attraction.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    - Social media is a medium wherein majority of the world would look at for entertainment almost every single day. You can promote about human sexuality as something to be taken seriously, but social media would also have its downfalls.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - Human sexuality is the capacity of humans to have erotic experiences and responses. A person's sexual orientation can influence their sexual interest and attraction for another person. The "nature" debate states that our instincts are the ones that control our own beliefs and actions. The "nurture" debate states that our own sexuality are influenced by everyone and everything we encounter every day.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    - According to Sigmund Freud, who supports the nature argument, believes that sexuality is instinctive and is the what influences our personalities. In addition, Freud's theory assumed that behavior was rooted in biology. Whereas, John Locke, who supports the nurture argument, conceived a theory of the mind being seen as a “tabula rasa” or blank slate, the environment in which one develops drives their sexuality. In other words, people are shaped based on their surroundings.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    - First, girls seem to mature earlier than boys; men tend to be physically stronger than women. Second, men tend to be competitive while women tend to be nurturing and protective. Third, men are generally task oriented, while most women tend to do things out of genuine love and concern for people

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    - Some parents fail to assume their right and duty to educate their children about sexual matters. They either think that it is not time yet to discuss or it is am uncomfortable subject. Thus, they result into receiving information from friends or media. However, these may not always be correct. They are distortions from the true meaning of sexuality. It is essential for parents to discuss this topic, even if it does not seem "normal", so that the youth may be guided.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    - Sexuality signifies an essential dimension of the whole person, by which he/she enters into relationship with others. Sexuality is who a person is, it is their personality and it is who they are. It is a part of them that allows them to love and care for other people. And to be Christian is to love and be in a relationship with others.

  62. 6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - Our sexuality is a gift from God. It refers to everything about our being human that makes us either male or female. It is a fundamental part of our being human because it is what defines us, makes us who we are. As such, it is our responsibility to defend our sexuality. Sex is not just merely defined as an act, but it is every persons dignity.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - There are various passages in the bible regarding sexuality such as:

    Genesis 2:18
    The Lord God said: "It is nit good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him." This is how sexuality came to be. To be in a relationship with a partner so that we many not be alone.

    Matthew 19:4-5
    Jesus replied: “At the beginning the Creator made them male and female and declared, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” As we grow up, we are given the freedom to find someone to live with and have a relationship with.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    - Chastity is sexual purity. Those who are chaste are morally clean in their thoughts, words, and actions. Chastity means not having any sexual relations before marriage. It also means complete fidelity to husband or wife during marriage. First step to grow in chastity is to understand what sex is, based on Christian teachings. And then, we make sure that we have an open-mind to extend our thoughts to the teachings of God about this for this performance is very sacred.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    - The song “Marvin Gaye” talks about sex. Songs are a way to show a message to others and can be interpreted in different ways. Even if it seemed like just another simple song, it is considered rude or disrespectful to others It mentioned the term “kama sutra.” The Kama Sutra is an ancient Indian Hindu text widely considered to be the standard work on human sexual behavior in Sanskrit literature and it was treated without respect in the song. A portion of the work consists of practical advice on sexual intercourse. It appears that this song wants to promote these kind of lustful acts. However, we must understand that sex is juts the act. Our human sexuality is a gift from God, thus must be protected.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    - I will promote the proper treatment of Human Sexuality on Facebook and Instagram by reminding people on Facebook that they should not post any photo/video or comment which are all about promoting sex as an act that can be freely done. I will remind them also that they do not need to hide who they truly are when it comes to their choice of sexuality. I would also make a page which display various biblical passages about human sexuality to remind

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - The human sexuality increases when someone reaches puberty. Where it is discussed whether sexual behavior happens because of genetics or because of the environment.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    - Sigmund Freud supports the nature part, as he thinks that sexual drives are developed because of our natural instincts and that it is a central source of the human personality. John Locke, on the other hand, supports the nurture part, as he thinks that the environment around a person affects their sexuality.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    - The physical differences between them are that girls mature much earlier than boys, but men tend to be much stronger than girls. Psycho-emotionally and spiritually, men are much more competitive, while women are more nurturing and protective.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    - It could be awkward for someone to talk about their sexuality or even talk about sexuality. Parents sometimes assume their duty to educate their children on sexual things. Which may make teenagers think that it is a bad thing.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    - In the Christian view, sexuality is an essential dimension of the whole person, where he/she gets into a relationship with others.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - Because we are made according to God’s image. This drives us to share the love and creativity that God gave us. It is God-given power for love and generativity that we learn to integrate more fully within ourselves. Our sexuality is a fundamental part of being human.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - As said in Genesis 2:18, that it is not good for man to be alone and in Matthew 19:4-5 where ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’ Means that us as human beings have the right to love someone. In Genesis 1:27, 21 it is stated that it is for pro-creation.
    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    - Chastity creates inner harmony and unity of the body and spirit. So in order for a person to grow in chastity, they must control their sexual desires. They must understand the true value of sexuality and that they should discipline their feelings and must express their sexuality with what God has planned for them.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    - Well the song talks about sex, that’s for sure. But it gives out the wrong message saying that sex is a casual thing and its only for pleasure, well it’s not like that. Because it is a way for people to show their partner that they love them, it is a way to show their affection for each other. Although the song is quite catchy, it just shows how commercialized sex is in media, which ruins the value of what it really is.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    - I will use these sites as a place where I would spread God’s word and about human sexuality and how we should be more aware of it in our society. We should be able to show what is right or wrong to do online, so that we can help people become more responsible people online, as many people use the internet now and there are many ways to find new information out there. So I want to be that person who can give good and interesting information to those who need it.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - Nurture is believed to be that sexual behavior is modeled by the environment while nature is the sexual behavior based on genetics or in ate characteristics.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    - According to John Locke, he believes nurture since he thinks that people are shaped through their social environment, he says that a child's mind is like a tabula rasa, whatever the child sees in his/her environment, it will go to his mind. However, Sigmund Freud, the person who proposed "eros" and "thanatos", believes that the source of of human personality is sexuality, therefore he believes in nature.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    - Men are usually physically stronger than women but women mature earlier than men, thats one biological difference. Women are protective and nurturing while men are competitive. Social differences: There are specific job for men like construction workers and same goes for women, they get to work at home. But as time passes by, these things have changed and men and women can now have any job they want.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    - I think that it would be beyond awkward for children to talk to their parents/siblings about their sexuality, also vice versa. Although it wouldn't hurt to educate your children the proper meaning of sexuality, but it would be better to discuss it at a certain age because it might come off as you influencing them.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    - Sexuality is quite different from sexual act/intercourse. Sexuality is when a person enters into a relationship with other human beings.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - God gave us the gift to freely love anyone. It is a gift because we can gain happiness from it.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - In the book of Genesis, God created man in his own image and likeness - male & female. He instructed them to be fertile and multiply. According to the bible, God made men and women to love and multiply. But you must keep in mind that before multiplying, you must love each other, your relationship must be bounded by love.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    - Don't commit premarital sex. Only have sex once you've met someone you truly love and after getting married, don't commit adultery & stay loyal to your partner. You should have control and discipline when it comes to sexual appetite.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    - Its about giving into temptation and engaging in sexual acts with someone you barely know and even before they are married. These actors and actresses in the music video would make out and do sexual acts with someone they barely know just for money. The message of this song is bad because its saying that "sex is not a big deal, just go do it already" but actually, it is a big deal.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    - I will say how important it is to respect each and every one's sexuality. I will also inform people on facebook my stand on true and proper treatment of human sexuality. Since not everyone has the time to read long statuses on facebook, I can make a short video on how to properly treat people's sexuality, setting an example. By simply defining the real meaning of human sexuality, i think it can revolutionize the social media as regards the true and proper treatment of human sexuality, most especially among the youth.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    The nature vs nurtue theory is about where humans gather their sexual drives from. For the nature argument, our sexual drives are part of our instincts and it happens naturally. On the other hand, the nurture debate says that our sexuality depends on the environment we develop in.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    According to Sigmund Freud, our instincts is the natural cause of our sexuality because they are the principal motivating forces in the mental realm. He roots our behavior on biology as well. On the other hand, John Locke believes that people are shaped strongly by their social environments. Whatever goes into one's mind comes from the environment.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Biologically, women mature earlier and men are physically stronger. The social differences are that women tend to be nuturing and protectie while men tend to be competitive.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    It isn't discussed much because it's not something easily brought up by some people. Not everyone respects and appreciate's one sexuality, even family. This leads to people being uncomfortable about talking about it, whether with family or whoever.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    In the Christian view of sexuality, it is God's gift to us. It helps us relate to others through our sexual natures that we share in God's life of love and creativity. Our sexuality refers to us being either male or female. Everyone should acknowledge and accept one's sexual identity. Moreover, our sexuality is for us not to be alone in the world so we can find a partner and have a happy family.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    It is a gift because it gives us the freedom to find a partner and reproduce more children of God. It gives a person happiness and this is considered a gift to us all.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality

    Sex is a gift to a male and female. However, sexual activities and relations are limited to partners who have been married. Nowadays, the meaning of sexuality is being manipulated by society, but it's just a normal thing.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity by understanding it's meaning which is that sexual intimacy is limited to marriage only. A person needs to understand te meaning of sex based on the Bible. Moreover, temptation needs to be resisted when the time calls for it. One needs to read Bible passages related to sex because it really enlightens people to practice chastity.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    The song Marvin Gaye was a little bit too much. In the music video, there was too much sexual actions and everyone there seemed to enjoy it. Respect has been thrown out a window or something like that, and everyone's sexuality is clearly shown. The song also talks about sex in such a different way from the Bible that it displays how distorted the world's view is on it.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    Using social media, I would spread and show everyone what human sexuality really means, especially among the youth because their views on sexuality are changing. There are plenty ways to promote through social media and I'm sure when something is promoted, people will see. Informing everyone the true meaning of human sexuality is something that needs to be done and no one should mind if it's being promoted around social media.

    1. Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    > The Nature Theory states that human sexuality is something that is within us and something we were born with. It is basically something that is given by God to express who you are and who we are supposed to be. No matter any circumstance, you will still have the same sexuality since it is given by God. On the other hand, the Nurture theory states that human sexuality is defined by the actions that we do and the people that surround us. It basically states how sexuality is based on the influence that we come by as we go around in our lives.

    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke’s contention of nature vs. nurture.

    > Freud talks about how our human sexuality is affected by our personality. Basically, it states that we are the cause for our sexuality. Locke’s contention is that we are a blank slate or a tabula rasa and we are empty and we are influenced by the people around us and the environment we are in.

    3. Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    > Biologically, women tend to mature faster while men tend to become physically stronger. The differences are influenced by their different hormones since the bodies of men and women are quite different. Socially, women are more of protective and nurturing while men are more competitive and task-oriented.

    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    > Even though it is the job of the parents’ to educate their children, families find it inappropriate and awkward to discuss these matters with their children. This is very essential though since if these matters are not discussed from parents themselves, later on, these kids would go searching for their own answers and that could lead them to learning lessons the harder way.

    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    > Human Sexuality is the definition of who God made us to be, it is our entire entity. It is who we are that gives us the power to cherish and love others. Sexuality is something that should be sacred since it gives us the opportunity to feel love. It should not be interpreted as merely an act but something that gives our life and soul an opportunity to love someone else.

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?

    > Human sexuality is a gift because God gave us this power to love and be loved through sexuality. It touches our soul to be able to share love to someone else. This is something that affects who we are and our personality because through this, we are capable of dealing with what we feel.

    7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    In Genesis 2:18, God said that “It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him.” Also in Matthew 19:4-5, it is stated that “At the beginning, the Creator made them male and female and declared, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’ This shows how God gave us this gift to find a partner that we could share love and our life with and how sexuality gives us a chance to express it.

    8. How can a person grow in chastity?

    > To be able to grown in chastity means that it would be preserving yourself to use your sexuality for the one that you truly love and want to spend the rest of your life with. To grown in this, you must know that you are the master of your body and that any kind of desire does not have to control you. Also, this means that you must be faithful and loyal to the person you want to be with. It is commitment.

    9. Discuss your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get It On in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

This can be related to our topic since in today’s generation, this act is depicted and commercialised as something meaningless and that is what our lesson tries to disprove since our sexuality must be sacred.

    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    > I would use these platforms in such a way that I would be able to remind people that no matter what your sexuality is, you must not be ashamed of it since this is how God made you.

    1. Nurture is sexual behavior with science such as genetics while nature is natural and by the environment

    2.Freud believes we attain them naturally while Locke believes we develop them over time.

    3.women mature faster than men but men are physically stronger men also are more competitive while women are nurturing

    4. Because it's a very sensitive topic that bring up things which may make people uncomfortable.

    5.the Christian view of sexuality is what helps a person from a relationships with others.(not always romantic)

    6.its a gift because it's Gods Gift to us in order to give life/procreate.

    7.Genesis 2:24 states that when a man gets married and leaves his parents he will reproduce with his wife which is a gift from God

    8.One can grow in chastity if he or she refrains from sexual activities and surrounds himself with people who do the same

    9. Even if it isn't directly stated the song does commercialize sex in a way that it is no longer sacred. It turns sex into a casual activity which isn't right.

    10.Social Media is a great tool to use in order to preach the word of God since many people can see it. Using social media I can help the people who aren't aware of human sexuality and educate them in order for them to have a better understanding on the topic.

  71. 1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory  in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - For nature, our human sexuality is already instilled in us through genetics. Meanwhile nurture is when the person is influenced by his/her surroundings.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    - Men are usually stronger and more competitive than women while women are more nurturing and caring than man. The social difference between man and woman is that men are seen more as breadwinners compared to women.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    - Sexuality signifies a dimension of a person as a whole.

    - Because we are created according to God’s image. We all share in God’s life of love and creativity. It is a God-given power for love and generatively. It is a fundamental part of being a human being.

    - It is said that it is not good for man to be alone, so he will make him a partner.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    - We should moderate our sexual desires to become more virtuous.

    9.)  Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    10.)  How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth. 
    - I would use social media wisely as not to hurt anyone in any way. I would promote love and prosperity instead of hate. I would like to show everyone that we are all human and created in God’s image.

  72. 1. Nature means that human sexuality is the very nature of humans; whereas nurture means human sexuality is influenced by how a person was raised and where.
    2. Sigmund Freud: sexuality is instinctive, part of our biology.
    John Locke: "tabula rosa" a.k.a blank slate. Influenced by our environment.
    3. Physically, women mature much earlier than men do. For their psycho-emotional and spiritual beings, women are more nurturing and protective while men become competitive.
    4. Sexuality is a delicate topic when it comes to the filipinos because due to religion, we have conservative views on sexuality.
    5. The christian view of sexuality is that it believes that sexuality is the union between the two sacred creations of God.
    6. It is a gift because it allows human beings to express themselves as they truly are, to help them cope and belong to what they feel accepts them for who they are.
    7. Sexuality, according to the bible, is a gift because it touches and influences all aspects of our very being.
    8. A person can grow in chastity by waiting for the proper moment with the proper person. It ensures that you truly give your entire being to the one who truly deserves it all and vice-versa.
    9. The music video gives me a sense of irresponsible, but to be expected discovery. It truly is normal for teens to feel those kinds of urges, and I only hope that those teenagers were taught proper sex education. Back to topic, this video gives me the sense that as teenagers, we are free to explore and discover who we are and what we really stand for, and this music video shows the exploration process, albeit slightly exaggerated.
    10. One basic way to encourage people to accept sexuality is to just respect them. You do not have to become part of the LGBTQ+ community, you do not have to constantly understand them, you have to accept their thoughts and ideals because that would mean that they matter! It would give the message that they are human, and they too should be respected. Because by respecting their thoughts and ideals, you recognize them and show that they truly are accepted. You don't have to agree with their labels, but the fact is if you refer to them using their correct label, you help them feel like they belong. That they are truly accepted for what they are and that what they are is a beautiful human being.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    > In the nature vs. nurture theory, human sexuality can be applied in many ways. One of the ways the nature vs nurture theory aids in the understanding of human sexuality is that innate characteristics and sexual orientation (nature) can be changed in due time (nurture). One person born as a straight man can have his experiences change their sexual orientation. Another way is that through our own experiences, views on many things that hinder us from understanding our human sexuality can change. Many things that are innate may be molded and changed by things we encounter as we grow older. Nothing is permanent, and our views on sexuality may change anytime.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    > Sigmund Freud believed that nature is everything. He believed that everyone in the human race has similar innate drives and everyone acts as everyone else. On the other hand, John Locke said nature was nothing, and nurture was everything. He believes that we were born with no innate ideas, and that everything we become is through our experiences and memories.


    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    > BIOLOGICAL: Height, muscle, and fat tissue are different.
    > SOCIAL: They differ in the way they communicate, the way they form friendships, and the way they deal with others. Women usually communicate their vulnerabilities wile men choose to hide it.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    > Usually it is not discussed within a family setting due to the sensitivity of the topic. One may say they do not want to discuss their sexuality with their family as they are afraid of judgment. Many want to keep it to their circle of friends or to themselves because more of them can relate to each other than parents can relate with their child, or vice versa.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    > Sexuality is seen as a very controversial topic when it comes to its Christian view. It is seen as a gift from God, and we are taught not to abuse it. Also, we are all taught is that any type of sexual activity outside marriage is not allowed by the Christian community. Though there are many things in sexuality that are contrary to the Christian View, it is still a gift that we may celebrate and thank God for.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    > Human sexuality is a gift due to the fact that it is given to us to fulfil His tasks. We are called to "be fruitful & multiply", and this is the gift given to us to do just that. Human sexuality aids the bond between a man and a woman, showing another reason why tis is a gift.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    > The bible says that sexuality is a mysterious and powerful thing that still has its boundaries. It also shows that there are many hindrances to our human sexuality, such as lust and impurity. We are told to not let these hindrances faze us when it comes to understanding our true purpose in sexuality.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    > A person must know their limits in terms of sexuality, and with this, one can live in chastity. Being chaste will help us grow and understand our sexuality more, influencing the deepening of our relationship with God. As one is chaste, he/she will have more time to explore other gifts and creations of God, and learn to protect them.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    > This shows that human sexuality is viewed very badly in this generation. Media has contorted our ideas of human sexuality to be seen as a vice, and one that causes many to sin. We must know that it is a gift from God, and we must not let media dictate our views on it.


    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    > I will begin a campaign to be able to spread and gain awareness on the alarming view of human sexuality in our current generation. Through my social media sites, I will show how human sexuality really must be viewed, through many visuals and inspirational messages.

    I will not stop there. I will begin to talk to my family about how human sexuality is viewed today, and tell them that it must not be viewed that way anymore. I will show them ways on ow to create big changes in their own little ways. Simply gaining awareness on this topic will create a spectacular change in the society’s view on this controversial topic.

  75. 1.) Sexuality can be determined by either environment (nurture) or genetics (nature). Nature focuses on instinct while nurture focuses on the development of a person’s identity.
    2.) Freud believed that sexual drives are instinctive and that sexuality is the central source of human personality. Locke believed that a person’s social environment is where human sexuality is taken from.
    3.) Biologically men are more muscular than women but women mature earlier than men. IN the society it is clearly seen that men are the ones made to do tasks like work for the family while women are tasked to stay at home to take care of the children.
    4.) It is seldom discussed because an awkward aura is created between family members. Parents don’t really want to discuss it because teenagers or kids might find it weird while teenagers or kids find it hard to open up and ask about this topic.
    5.) Sexuality must be developed before a person enters a relationship. It is a part of every aspect of a person’s life and must be developed and nurtured. It is a person’s dignity and is different from a sexual act.
    6.) It was given to us by God for love and generosity. It refers to our being human.
    7.) Love and Procreation which can be found in Genesis 1:27-31, Genesis 2:18, Matthew 19:4-5
    8.) By controlling our sexual appetite. We must use our sexuality and feelings for good reasons only not for bad things.
    9.) The songs title means “let’s have intercourse” for the LGBT community. This is related to our topic in many different ways like how this man’s name is used for an act. We were given sexuality as a gift and we must remember to not use this for evil desires.
    10.) To promote or revolutionize the social media outlets such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, we should make a campaign in which it urges users to take action and take part of informing everyone on what sexuality is. I will promote proper treatment of human sexuality by showing others that I support the correct and true virtues of which human sexuality stands for.

    1. The nature theory is that our sexuality has been planted into us the moment we were conceived. This means that we are somehow programmed to behave how we behave and that our sexuality and other characteristics are given to us through genetics. On the other hand, the nurture theory is that we learn from our environment and through the people around us and that is how we develop our own personality and our sexuality.

    2. John Locke's nurture theory is that each child is similar to a "tabula rasa" or a blank slate. This means that a child could be shaped and molded by his/her environment and the people around the child. Sigmund Freud's nature theory on the other hand is the opposite of Locke's because it states that a child's personality and sexually has already been decided through genetics and the child's roots.

    3. Women are thought to mature earlier than men and that is why as children women are sometimes taller than the men but as time goes on the men grow taller than the women. They evidently also have different reproductive body parts. Men are said to be stronger than women and women are said to be the managers of the household while men are the breadwinners of the household.

    4. Sexuality is barely discussed in the family because of insecurity. Sometimes the child might be afraid to come out of the closet in fear of the parents' reactions towards this. People dont really discuss this topic unless it is brought up or if they feel they really need to talk about it.

    5. Christians see sexuality as something that defines you as a person. It is what determines your relationship with a significant other.

    6. Human sexuality is a gift because it is given to us by God to share His gift of life and love to our significant other.

    7. The Bible says that God created man's partner for him to feel loved. After the man and woman are wed they are to leave their fathers and mothers to live under one roof and to become one body.

    8. A person can grow in chastity by not engaging in any sexual activity until they are married. This could be done through practicing discipline and being patient until you marry a significant other.

    9. The song Lets Marvin Gaye and Get It On is saying that sex is merely something that could be done anywhere or anytime. The song says that it is a casual and normal thing to do and that you could do it with anyone you want. This however is not the right way to describe sex as it is a gift from God and that we should not abuse what he has given us.

    10. We need to learn to discipline ourselves to make sure we dont post anything wrong or bad that could upset people. Everything has a limit and social media is no exception because whatever you post everyone will see and so we need to be mindful of what we post online.

  80. 1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    The nature theory states that human sexuality is something that we are born with, our views and desires set at birth. The nurture theory on the other hand states that our sexuality is determined by our experiences and environment.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Freud believes that our personality is what drives our sexuality, while Locke believes that our sexuality is shaped by our experiences and surroundings.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Biologically, women tend to mature faster while men tend to become stronger. Socially, women tend to become more nurturing and protective, while men tend to become competitive and task oriented.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    As families find it awkward and somewhat inappropriate to talk of this subject to their children. Although it is vital that children learn of this, it is not entirely the family's responsibility to teach them of this. They will find their answers themselves.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Sexuality is a gift that a God has given us. It's the gift that makes us human. It's our identity and is what allows us to love and to be loved. It's a person dignity, it must be developed and nurtured.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    It's a gift because it's the God given power to love and to be loved. It's what makes us human.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    The bible states that sexuality is for love and procreation, as it is not good for a man to be alone, an example would be the story of Adam and Eve.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    For a person to grow in chastity, he/she must learn to control his/her sexual appetite. He/she must know the right thing, he/she must know the right time to give in to the sexuality, to the right person, to the person they know who truly deserves that gift.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    Just like most music nowadays, the song is about the sexual act, and in relation to our lesson, we can say that human sexuality is seen much throughout our pop culture. Although for us Catholics, sex is not the act itself, but is the gift of God, along with sexuality, it defines us as humans, it's our identity and the soul to our bodies. It's what gives life to our vessels that is the body. The song, much like most things that talk of sex, is mainly centered around the act itself, not the Christian view of sex.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I will spread the word on such social media that human sexuality is more than just the act, that it is God's gift. I will post the word on how sexuality is more than just the attraction, the action, and etc. I will spread that it is what drives us, the spice in our lives, the identity to our bodies, to ourselves. I will use social media to teach other what human sexuality truly is, to separate it from the act and connect it to its Christian meaning.

    1.) Both of these theories are speculations of how human sexuality is brought upon into a person. In the nature theory, I believe that it states that people are naturally born with their sexuality, preference in partners, and are all done on instinct. For the nurture theory though, from the word, a persons sexuality is 'nurtured' by outside sources.

    2.) These two theorist were on opposing sides when it comes to human sexuality, nature theory vs. nurture theory respectively. Freud had believed that a humans sexual drive are made purely through instinct, that it was their body demanding for something thought essential. As for Locke: he thought of human sexuality, of the mind of the person, as something that can be easily influenced in acting a certain way. He saw it as a "tabula rasa" which can be drawn upon by the opinions of the people surrounding the person.

    3.)
    Biological Differences: Women are seen to be more mature or mature faster compared to men. This can also be seen as the reason for the females to be more nurturing and caring compared to the competitiveness of men.

    Social Differences: Before the equality in terms of job distribution, iron laws were given to both genders. It was a demand that the husband of the family will be the one working and being the staple of income, while the wife stays at home and takes care of the children.

    4.) This usually happens because the parents do not assume responsibility in teaching their children about sexuality. This problems was caused as well because the generation before them did not educate them enough about their own sexuality. With no physical source of knowledge from their maternal providers, they turn to other sources such as friends and social media. This proves to be ineffective because they only give out half-truths or misconceptions about a persons sexuality and warps the teenagers view on it.

    5.) The Christian society has views sexuality as the basis of who we choose to be in a relationship with. Sexuality is what helps us in deciding what relationship we want in the future, a filter so to say.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Balcita JF
    6.) It is our way of defining ourselves as a person, a privilege so to say, which was given to us at birth by God. God has given us sexuality because it has become one of the many ways of expressing love for humanity. With sexuality, we make our decisions: we talk how we want to talk, we act how we want to act, and we become what we want to become. Our sexuality gives us confidence in standing by what we are, that we are people who have a right to live.

    7.) Sexuality was defined through God's first human creations. God created a man and woman who he said were to go be fertile and multiply. From the book of Genesis, it can be seen that first signs of sexuality can be seen through the relationship of Adam and Eve. They had seen themselves as partners and decided to spend their lives with each other and produce children.

    8.) By controlling and denying all sexual desires that we may encounter, as well as always staying faithful to our partner if we choose to get married. From the many rules in the Bible, it has stated that remaining chaste will give us a sense of freedom. Instead of the rules shackling us, they actually set us free from the burdens of ever giving in to lust. As Christians and as people, it helps us become better, helps us become role models that help others become chaste in the eyes of the Lord.

    9.) If I had not studied of human sexuality in Christian Living, I would have seen the video as a depiction of it. I know now that the depiction in the video and song are completely wrong. They have shown us a warped view of sexuality, that it is all about the pleasure of a person and a persons preference in partners. This is all completely wrong. They did not show that sexuality is what defines a person. They did not show that sexuality was given to us by God that shows our uniqueness and individuality as one of His children.

    10.) I create a poster which will really hit what the youth find in themselves as insecurity, of how the media is giving us the wrong message. I think this will be effective because our generation is easily captivated by illustrations and colors, and when they see the contents, they will surely receive an impact. I want them to be able to remember my poster, so that they will think of it whenever they see something similar to it in different occasions.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - Nature refers to our instinctual drives, and nurture refers to what we adapted from the environment.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture
    - According to Freud, sexuality and sexual urges are natural, and your sexuality, or what you identify as, is the core of our personalities. However, Locke says that sexuality is more of the nurture theory, and that what we are exposed to is what makes up our sexuality.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    - Physical: men appear to be stronger physically and rowdier as compared to women, and women appear to be daintier and more graceful than men
    - Social: in modern society, a man is stereotyped as loud, confident and strong, and women are stereotyped as soft spoken, dainty and kind (a pushover).

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    - I like to believe it's because parents would like to let their children figure it out for themselves, but sad to say that is not the case. It is because it is considered as am uncomfortable and inappropriate topic for parents to discuss with their young children.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    - It is a gift to us from God and also a vital part of our personality.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - As I mentioned before, it is God's gift to us. It is gift He hopes we use in order to love and be loved.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - Sexuality was made for the sole purpose to love and pro-create

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    - By keeping their conscience clean and following it religiously.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    - The song showcased the diversity in our society and how the youth tend to experiment on their sexuality, in the hope of discovering who they really are and who they want to be with.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    - As young as they are, I would want to show them that doing what they feel is right is not something to be ashamed of. No matter who you are or who you want to be with, you are still God's child and He will still love you for that. Many kids and teens nowadays are so ashamed to tell their parents their sexuality because their parents raised them with the mindset that there are only two genders: male & female, and because of that, the thought of them being neither of those scared them so much to the point they would rather die than tell them because they know they won't be accepted for who they are. I want the kids in this generation to know that anything is okay as long as it is what they want so that the youth from the upcoming generations will grow up to think like that too.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    - In terms of sexuality, the nature debate is based on our biology, or our instincts. While the nurture debate is based on the experiences of the person as he matures.



    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    - Freud believed that we were born with the most basic instincts, while Locke believed that a person is born with a "blank slate", meaning there is nothing in the brain that would hold some sort of personality.


    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    -Men are mostly described to be more physically fit than the counterpart, also perceived as the worker for the family. On the other hand, women are depicted as the rock for a stable family and the home's caretaker.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    - Most children might find it awkward just because. Although I think that parents should talk to their children about sex at an earlier age to give them a better view of sexuality.


    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    - Christianity views sexuality as the core of the human experience, and it centers on the marital covenant between husband and wife, and the possibility of new life.


    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    - It is a gift because sexuality is what makes us conscious. In my opinion, no level of consciousness would exist without sexual dimension.


    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    - Sexuality is viewed in many ways in the Bible. It was a way of "filling the earth and subdue it", as God said to Adam and Eve. Song of Solomon celebrates the sexual delight of lovers, while Paul taught that marital union represents the relationship between Christ and his church. (ChristianityToday)


    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    - A person can grow in chastity by learning his or her own self, and by learning the true worth of our sexuality and how it defines us.



    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    - I'm not necessarily a fan of its message, as it tries to portray sex as a method of one's enjoyment, or just something to pass the time. In my opinion the song does not show the true meaning of sexuality. But after all, the music industry will always find ways to attract to its audience.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    - The best way is to post about the true meaning of sexuality and how it shouldn't be abused, especially at such a young age.

    1. Discuss the Nature vs. Nurture Theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    The Nature vs. Nurture theory states that one's interest in human sexuality generally increases when one reaches puberty. This begins one's exploration and experimentation of their own sexual orientation. Simply put, innate characteristics and sexual orientation (nature) can be changed in due time from one's environment and culture (nurture).

    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of the Nature vs. Nurture Theory.
    Sigmund Freud and John Locke have different views and beliefs of the Nature vs. Nurture Theory. Sigmund Freud believes that sexual drives are instinctive and that one's sexuality is the primary source of one's personality, which is the "nature argument". On the other hand, John Locke, believes that using his theory is seen as a "tabula rasa" or blank state, in which one's environment is what develops their sexuality.

    3. Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Girls, physically, seem to mature earlier than boys; while men tend to be physically stronger than women due to the presence of testosterone hormones. Psycho-emotionally and spiritually, men tend to be competitive while women tend to be nurturing and protective. In conclusion, while most women tend to do things out of genuine love and concern for people, men are generally more task oriented.

    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    Sexuality is seldom discussed openly in the family because most parents believe that it would be awkward for their children. This can stir a lot of questions that will lead the youth to be misguided and lost in direction. This should be corrected because parents should be a child's moral guide especially when thinking about sexuality.

    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    The Christian view of sexuality views sexuality as an essential dimension of the whole person, by which he/she enters into a relationship with others. It views sexuality as God's gift to us and God-given power for love and generativity that we must learn to gradually integrate ever more fully within our total selves.

    1. Nature is when our sexual behavior came from genetics or from our parents while Nurture is when our sexual behavior is developed as we grow up like from personal experiences or from the influence of our surroundings.
    2. Sigmund Freud is for Nature while John Locke is for Nurture. For Sigmund Freud, he believes that our sexual behavior comes from our parents but for John Locke, he believes that our sexual behavior is developed through our experiences as we grow up or from our surroundings.
    3. Boys are usually stronger than girls. They are also more competitive but girls are more protective.
    4. Parents could be so busy that they fail to teach and discuss this important matter with their kids.

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Human Sexuality is a gift because we are created according to God's image as "male and female". It enabes us to build relationships with others and share as one communion, God's love for us.

    7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    Evidence strongly indicates Biblical passages and verses that show human sexuality. For example, in Genesis 2:18, the Lord God said "It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him." Other verses, such as Matthew 19:4-5 and Genesis 1:27-31.
    8. How can a person grow in chastity?
    By definition, "chastity" means being "pure", "not having any sexual relations before marriage" and "fidelity to husband or wife during marriage". For a person to grow in chastity, he must moderate his sexual desire and his intentions are in line with the commandments.

    9. Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get It On in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    Marvin Gaye is a depiction of Human Sexuality but in a double meaning way. Although the song is catchy and creative, it depicts Human Sexuality simply as the act of having sex, between two (or more) people with the same or different gender, which is not true. Since this is commercialized music, I am truly and deeply worried about the people hearing and listening to it. They must understand that Human Sexuality is not simply the act of having sex, but a big responsibility that must not be taken lightly.

    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as Twitter, Facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth?
    In order for me to truly promote the true meaning and essence of Human Sexuality through various social media among the youth, I will respect their views and opinions. I will promote a "Proper Human Sexuality" campaign to raise awareness on the youth's knowledge on human sexuality. It will engage them to create morally correct decisions especially in their growing age.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Nature is something you’re born with based on your gender at birth, while nurture is based on what you were raised to learn, believe, or by what you are taught.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Freud believed that one’s behaviour is taken from birth; that the primary instincts to drive one to act are Eros and Thantos. Locke believed that people are influenced by their surroundings and by what they are taught.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Biologically, men and women differ due to women having the ability to bear and conceive children. Socially men and women differ based on the society we live in, people tend to see women as weaker, and assume that men are stronger and should take responsibility, though this isn’t true in all situations.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    This is typically depicted as a heavy topic, most people tend to assume sexuality and the act of being sexual as the same thing. Most families are uncomfortable openly discussing things like this in a casual surrounding. Due to prior traditional ways of being raised these topics are seen as out of bounds or inappropriate, rather than something that may be discussed openly and freely.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    The Christian view of sexuality shows how it’s a part of us growing as a person, and as individuals.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    Human Sexuality teaches us freedom in the form of what we choose to do, it gives us the opportunity to bear children, and to identify as what one pleases. These as well allow a family to grow and develop.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    As stated in Genesis, God created Adam and Eve, once both of them ate from the fruit of knowledge, they realized how human they both were and lived in fear and in shame of how they were in the nude. Once they were banished God told them to create more children and multiply.


    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    By keeping self control and by following the God’s word. By not giving in to temptation.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    Let’s Marvin Gaye and get it on shows how at present, sexual acts are not as controversial as they were before, and these may be talked or rather sang about casually and nonchalantly.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    One way to revolutionize this through social media is by using it as a form to reach out and talk about certain topics not usually talked about in real life in fear of being judged or criticized.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory  in view of understanding human sexuality.

    In view of understanding human sexuality, the nature theory is the respective gender each of us are born to be. Meanwhile, the nurture theory is the gender we are raised or “influenced” to be.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Sigmun Freud believed that human nature consisted of three parts: an unconscious mind (our old biological instincts transformed in the name of civilization), an ego (conscious rational part) and the super ego (an agency that promotes guilt). John Locke, however,
    thought that we had no innate ideas; our minds are blank slates, upon which experience writes. He believed that nature was everything and nature was nothing.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Biologically, men and women have different body structure, organs and puberty growth. Socially, men and woman are often treated differently because of the sexism present in today’s society.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality is seldom discussed in the family because most people are usually more comfortable sharing about their sexuality with the people they love and/or comfortable with.



    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    We are here because of a divine initiative. We are spiritual beings in the sense that we are created by God, for God, accountable to God. In addition, there is a unique relationship between man and wife that involves God joining them together. It is to be expressed in ever deepening intimacy which includes sexual pleasure.

    6. Why is human sexuality a gift?

    Human sexuality is a gift because it is given by God. There is a reason why God granted human sexuality to is, and that is for us to be fruitful and increase by number; to build a mighty nation that would worship and praise His name.

    7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    Sexuality can be found in the many books of the bible. Here are a few examples: Genesis 1:28 - God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 - May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

    8. How can a person grow in chastity?
    Chastity is the state or practice of refraining from extramarital, or especially from all, sexual intercourse. I can grow in chastity by remaining faithful to my partner and by only choosing to have intercourse with him when we get married.

    9. Give your reaction in view of the song "Let's Marvin Gaye and Get It On" in relation to our topic: Human sexuality.

    When I first heard the song, I didn’t know it was about sexual activity. However, as I listened to song more, I then realised the song was about having sexual intercourse for fun. I believe that sexuality is a gift from God and that it is sacred. Moreover, I think that the message of the song isn’t good and unrighteous in the eyes of God.

    10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram as regards the true prayer and proper treatment of Human Sexuality, most especially among the youth.

    I will use social media to spread God’s word and to set a good example to my Facebook friends. I will not share, tag or post pictures, videos or articles that is not pleasing in the eyes of God. I will be more careful with the words I use online and be more aware of the things I see.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Nature’s debate states that our own sexuality is something we are born with. Meaning, for example, a homosexual person was born that way ever since. The nurture debate, however, states that our own sexuality is influenced by the experiences we go through everyday — that a humans’ sexuality is partly affected by the social environment of the person.


    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    According to Sigmund Freud, sexuality was the core of the human’s personality. “Sexual drives” are instinctive, and our sexualities are rooted in biology — Nature. However, John Locke believed that people’s characters & sexualities are shaped by their social environments.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Biological: Women mature or hit puberty earlier than men.
    Social: Stereotypically, it is said that men are more physically fit while women are more nurturing, sensitive & emotionally/spiritually mature.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality is a sensitive and delicate topic to us, as Filipinos, especially because we are conservative & mostly Catholic. We tend to feel awkward and uncomfortable with our family during these discussions - because it’s an unfamiliar topic about our bodies. However, it’s important to have this kind of discussion so that we can be guided & educated with open-mindedness.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Nothing in the Bible says that sex is wrong. The Bible does hold the view, however, that sex is such a mysterious and powerful thing that should have certain boundaries -- like marriage. The Bible views the body as something important. It is a temple that should to be taken care of and used in God's service, not used as a sexual toy. Sexual immorality is not only a sin against your own body, but most especially against God.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    It is a gift to us because God granted our ability to procreate. It’s not only a process for recreation, but procreation as well! We get to expand His family & bear children.


    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    Since Adam & Eve were the first humans ever made, God gifted sex to them because they were the first male and female. This was for them to procreate and expand his family. However, sexual relations like this is only morally right for who are already married, given it is a gift given by God which we should not disrespect. Sadly, most of our generation have tainted the pure, Christian meaning of sex.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    To grow in chastity, we must understand the definition of sex in the words of God. Then, we need to open our minds and extend our thoughts to the teachings and preachings of God about this delicate topic. We shouldn’t give into temptations to be sexually immoral, for this performance is very sacred — and by definition, Chastity is sexual self-control wherein sexual acts are only limited to marriage.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    This song has tainted the pure meaning of sexuality due to its overly sexual, immoral nature. The people acting in the music video have given into their temptations, thus making it sin. This video is not chaste at all. People there have been reduced to sexual animals, given their actions in the video.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    First of all, it is important to educate young teenagers like me on sexuality, since it is slightly taboo and it is usually an uncomfortable topic to talk about. This way, with everyone properly educated with an open mind, we can truly preach the Christian meaning of human sexuality. By spreading the true meaning of human sexuality, we could save the youth from sexual immorality.

    1.) Discuss nature vs. nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    The nature theory gives emphasis on the fact that human sexuality is something God-given that comes from our inner spirits and that it comes from within in order to express your true identity, whilst the nurture theory discusses how human sexuality is further being defined through the different influences being brought to us by people around us and the way we act towards them.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs. nurture.
    According to Sigmund Freud, our human sexuality defines who we are and its based from our own individual personalities. On the other hand, John Locke discusses how we are an empty, blank slate that showcases our differences between us and other people, and that our personality is shaped by the influences around us.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    In terms of biological differences, women may not be as hefty and strong as men, but they happen to mature faster, and this is due to the difference in their hormones. For social differences, women are more nurturing and protective compared to men, whilst men always act like they are in a competition due to their task-oriented attitudes.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    Talking about sexuality to children of very young ages causes an awkward state to occur between the parents and their children. Teaching a young kid about a topic like “sexuality” seems to inappropriate, and I believe that parents should be patient with the growing knowledge that their children are still trying to develop. Topics like this should rather be taught when the child is at an appropriate age, and it should be discussed directly from the parents.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    In the views of Christians, sexuality is something God-given that defines our true personalities and whole-beings. The thing about sexuality is that it gives us the ability to give love to others, and receive love from them as well. We must treat our sexuality like as if it is something sacred for it gives us the powers to love and cherish our neighbours.

    1. 6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
      It is believed that human sexuality is a gift because it is God-given, and anything that comes from God should be considered as a blessing. He gave us in order for us to have the ability to love and be loved, and that shows how much He wants us to be generous in sharing our love with others. Our sexuality affects who we are as individuals.

      7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
      In Matthew 19:4-5, it discusses how we should consider our sexuality as a gift from God and that as man and woman, we have the ability to share and express our love with one another. Another basis is from Genesis 2:18, it states that God cared so much for the sexuality of one, which caused him to create another one in order for them to partner up and showcase their love towards one another.

      8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
      As a person, you can grow in chastity through preserving yourself to use your sexuality for someone who you dearly love and whom you would want to be with forever. In addition, you must not abuse the act of sex just to fulfill your desires; instead, you should use this for expressing your true only. Commitment is also needed in order to grow in chastity because faithfulness and loyalty is something that is very much needed between you and the person who you wish to spend the rest of your life with.

      9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
      I believe that the song “Marvin Gaye” by Charlie Puth depicts the view of sex in the perspective of our modern generation. The song can very much be related to Human Sexuality because it shows no sacredness and it is completely against the things that are being taught to us as children of God. We must treat the act of sex with respect for it is something consecrated.

      10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
      I will revolutionise these platforms through the act of giving every single mutual friend who follows me in these forms of social media a realisation that Human Sexuality must be treated with sacredness and respect. I would also remind them that it is a gift from God which we should not be ashamed of, and that we must cherish it as a blessing through loving everyone surrounding us.

  93. 1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory  in view of understanding human sexuality.

    In my opinion, human sexuality is the understanding of ones sexual orientation this can interest them into doing things that can be of pleasure but it has also been said that is a part of our own nature.

       2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    According to Sigmund Freud, he preached that sexual “sexual drives” are instinctive and viewed sexuality as the centre of the human’s personality. He alsoproposed that instincts “Eros” the life instinct and “Thanatos” the death instinct are the principal motivation in sexual drives but John Locke believed in the idea of nurture, He believed that people are shaped strongly by their social environment.

       3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    It has been said and proven that women are able to mature in an earlier stage than that of boys. It has also been said and proved that boys become more competitive while women become more nurturing, conscious and protective.

       4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    This is because it can be an awkward subject to talk about with family members since this topic is not as easy to understand than others. Filipino's are also very conservative therefore not being able to talk about one's sexuality / interests to their relatives.

       5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Sexuality is a certain persons personality, their own interests in their everyday lives. As a christian myself, i view it as something that lets someone love your for yourself and to be able to love and to be loved as well.

       6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    Human sexuality is a gift because it is something that only God gives you, God has created who you are and what you would grow up to be. Sexuality is His gift to us on to becoming the men or women God has created.

       7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    Genesis 2:18, the Lord God said: “It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him.” In addition, Matthew 19:4-5, states: “At the beginning, the Creator made them male and female and declared, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’ God also said in Genesis 1: 27f, 31: God created man in His image; in the divine image He created him; male and female He created them. God blessed them, saying: “Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it. God looked at everything He had made and he found it very good.”

       8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity simply by living their life as a child of God that understands the true value of sexuality and disciplines him/herself on knowing that there is a right time for everything.

       9.)  Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    My reaction to this song was that it was a normal song until i got to really hear and understand the lyrics little did i know it was about sexual intercourse. This being a surprise, i had to process and understand that there are songs about sex even if you did not know.


    10.)  How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.    

    In order to promote human sexuality to the youth we should have more campaigns, articles and videos about this certain topic that we could just spread around social media so more of the youth could read about it. this is something that can really help a teen when not knowing what to do at that particular time. always stay safe.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    The "Nature Theory" of Sigmund Freud states that sexuality was already a part of us ever since we were born, and sexuality is the center of every human's personality. On the other hand, John Locke's "Nurture Theory" revolves around the premise that the mind is a "tabula rasa" or "blank slate" wherein it becomes influenced by the events occurring around him/her, and these events are what influence a person's sexuality.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    In Sigmund Freud's theory, there are two instincts that we were born with, Eros (The Life Instinct) and Thanatos (The Death Instinct). Eros covers all things self-preserving and erotic while Thanatos covers aggression, self-destruction, and cruelty. In John Locke's theory, he argues that people are shaped by their environments especially via education. As the person develops, they discover their true identity.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    For the physical differences, women mature faster than men. On the other hand, men are stronger than women. In terms of social differences, women tend to be nurturing and protective as they do things out of genuine love and concern for people while men are competitive as they are task oriented.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality is seldom discussed openly in the family because parents are almost always not read to discuss such topics. That's why children think that such topics are considered taboo, sinful, and shameful.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Sexuality as viewed by Christianity is signified as an essential part of the whole person. it is what engages a person into forming relationships with others.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    Human sexuality is a gift because it is through sexuality that we manage to form different forms of relationships with others - that it is through our sexuality that we share in God's love and creativity. This shows why no man's an island.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    Sexuality is based on the first ever chapter of the bible: Gensis. In that chapter, when God created us, He formed us in His likeness and image as male and female. He did say that it isn't good for man to be alone, so he created a partner to be with him through thick and thin until death do they part.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    For a person to grow in chastity, one must never engage in sexual relations before marriage. As a married person, he/she must be faithful to his/her spouse.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    To be honest, I am gravely disappointed when I learned that the song is promoting "Kama Sutra." It destroys the purpose of chastity and distorts the truth of human sexuality especially to young people who haven't grasped the concept of sexuality. That's why there are many young ones like myself who end up facing teen pregnancy.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    For me, making videos and infographics would be the best way to promote true human sexuality because providing a wall of text can easily bore readers no matter how truthful these days. To be able to appeal to them, I must take advantage of most of us being visual learners, so it's easier to reach out to everyone.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - Nature is believed that our sexual behavior comes from our relatives/parents. Meanwhile nurture is the sexual behavior we learn from our experiences as we grow older.

    2) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    - Sigmund Freud believed that our sexual behavior/s are influenced or come from our parents. So Freud believed in biology and in Nature. Meanwhile, John Locke believed in nurture he believed that our sexual drives/behavior are influenced by the things surrounding us and through our experiences.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    - Biologically speaking men are much stronger than women. Although women tend to act more mature and act more protective when it comes to protecting their offsprings.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality is not a topic that should really be discussed especially towards children because is maybe an uncomfortable topic to be discussed within the family. It's not really friendly topic, especially for children because it should be discussed to them when they are mature enough and when the can understand the consequences it holds.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Sexuality is a gift from God, it is meant for love and procreation and should only be done when in a marriage.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - because it helps us reproduce/ procreate. Meaning we are created in His image whether male or female, and through this we must all continue living, loving, and spreading the word of the Lord.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - God gave us sexuality, he wanted us to multiply. Basically He wants us to fill the earth with gladness and joy, express intimacy and through this loving and serving others as well.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity by not having any sexual activities before marriage. They should fully understand the consequences sexual activities may lead to and they must have discipline in order for them to stop temptations of having sex before marriage.

    9.) Give your reflection in view of the song Let's Marvin Gaye and get it on in relation to our topic human sexuality.

    The song Marvin Gaye brings/ has a strong influence on sexuality in the wrong manner. The video showed a lot of sexual activities that should only be done when married, it shows the totally opposite of chastity as well. Because of this song a lot of people have misinterpreted the true meaning of human sexuality.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I can promote the true meaning of Human Sexuality through the use of social media by simply helping others understand what it really means. I can help promote its meaning by sharing posts and other posts related to the proper/ true meaning of human sexuality. Since social media is being used by a lot of people especially the youth, I will teach them that sexuality is sacred and something that should be taken seriously and understood properly.

    1. Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    Sigmund Freud defined nature as sexual behavior or behavioral traits that is determined by genetics or characteristics that we were born with Meanwhile, John Locke believed that “people are shaped strongly by their social environment;” he defined nurture as the sexual behavior that is modelled or formed by our surroundings/community.

    2. Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke’s contention of nature vs nurture.
    Sigmund Freud’s theory described that behavior was rooted in our genes or biology. He assumed that sexuality is the central source of human personality, as well as the instincts Eros (life instinct) and Thanatos (death instinct) are the main motivators in sexual drives. On the other hand, John Locke rejected the idea that there are innate differences among people and suggested that one’s characteristics are defined and shaped by their social environments. He believed in viewing a child’s mind as a tabula rasa or blank slate, saying that whatever goes into the child’s mind will come from his/her environment or surroundings.

    3. Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    The biological or physical differences between men and women is that the latter are assumed to mature earlier than men, but men tend to be physically stronger than women. Women are believed to be more nurturing and protective, while men are believed to be more competitive. The social roles between a man and a woman differ, where men are assumed to be the workers and providers (primary breadwinner) while the women take the role of managing the home, children, meals and etc. However, the roles and responsibilities have changed over time.

    4. Why is sexuality seldom discussed in the family?
    Sexuality is hardly discussed openly within the family nowadays because parents think it is an awkward task to take on to talk about it with their children. Parents also assume that once their children are informed with what sexuality is about, it would encourage them to the act itself—thus, children think that it is shameful or sinful due to their lack of knowledge on the matter. Children become curious and get information from other unreliable sources, believing in half-truths or distortions of the true meaning of human sexuality.

    5. Discuss the Christian view of sexuality?
    The Christian view of sexuality defines it as what ‘signifies an essential dimension of the whole person,’ by which the person enters into a relationship with others. To further clarify, sexuality is not the same as the sex act, which is how it is commonly misunderstood.

      7. Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
      God created man in his image and likeness: male and female, who he told to be fertile and multiple. It is said in the Bible that male and female were made to love each other, to multiply and fill the world with love and life. It is important to remember that the relationship between man and woman must be bounded by love before they reproduce and multiply.

      8. How can a person grow in chastity?
      To grow in chastity, one cannot have any sexual relations before he/she gets married; and once you are married, you must stay faithful to your spouse. You have to have self-control over your sexual desires and to understand the true value of sexuality before anything else.

      9. Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
      The song’s message is clear once you hear it. Nowadays, songs about the act of sex are so common that it almost makes it seem meaningless, belittling what used to be a sacred act between two people who are bound by love and marriage. It portrays a different meaning to human sexuality, which is worrisome to the generations who grow up listening to music like these.

      10. How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
      I believe that knowing and understanding the true meaning of human sexuality is essential to one's development; however, this is issue is not always discussed or taught in the proper methods by the proper sources. Social media is a huge part of this generation’s life, I suggest that I would find a creative way to spread awareness on the situation. Posters, movements, video infomercials—these are the things that will surely catch people’s attention to understand the proper meaning and treatment of human sexuality.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    Nature - behavioral traits that are due to innate characteristics, such as instincts and drives
    Nurture - more psychological wherein sexuality is developed as time passes

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Sigmund Freud - more on the NATURE aspect; sexual drives are instinctive and is the central source of human personality. This is where the terms Eros (self-preserving and erotic instincts) and Thanatos (aggression, self-destruction, and cruelty)
    John Locke - the mind is a blank slate/”tabula rasa” wherein the environment in which one develops drives sexuality. (e.g. social environments)

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Girls mature earlier than boys but boys (and men) are stronger in physical aspects. Man and woman are socially different because men tend to compete and they are tasked oriented; whereas women are nurturing and protective and also they do things out of how they feel (love and concern).

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    Parents don’t do their duty of explaining sexuality to their children which results to children to think that it is something to be ashamed of, sinful or just plain taboo.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Sexuality is a gift. It also signifies an essential dimension of the whole person by entering to relationship with others. It is not the same as doing the act of sex.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Sexuality is a gift because we are created as male and female with an ability to love and generativity. Sexuality is what makes us either male or female and is a fundamental part of being human. This is also linked to our dignity as persons or our being. This results to the beauty of having a family.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    All of the verses (seen in the powerpoint) talk about man is made as a companion for women and vice-versa. We are practically made for each other and that we should multiply in order to fill the Earth and take care of it. It also shows that love plays a big role in this.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    One must learn how to control his or her drives and won’t be a slave of it. Also, one must be knowledgeable of the true value of sexuality, disciplines his or her sexual drives and feelings. Most importantly, express his or her sexuality in accordance with God’s plan.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    Marvin Gaye is basically sex. First off, it already breaks off the concept of chastity and also violates the gift of sexuality since this shows that the song is implying that what they’re about to do is a fling and not something as special as doing it with someone you love.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    I would share eye-opening videos or tweets or photos about this since social media nowadays is basically people sharing things and their friends watching it even (and most of the time them not reacting to it). Also, I would be tweeting and posting what I’m learning in CL right now because to be honest, I don’t even know most of the things discussed in this lesson.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    - Human sexuality is split into the debate whether it is nature or nurture. Nature is when it is part of our instincts like we don't notice it since it's part of us. Nurture, however is wherein the surroundings of the person shapes the sexuality, it molds the person into that behavior.

    - There are biological difference in men and women; such that in physicality, Girls mature faster while boys are usually physically strongers. Although there are also social differences, like Psycho-emotional and spiritual differences. Men are usually competitive compared to women, due to them being more nurturing and protective. Also, men are task oriented, as for women do tasks out of love and concern towards people.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    - It is rarely discussed openly in a family because parents assume that it is awkward to talk about it, or that it isn't their duty to teach their children.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    - Sexuality for Christians, is the signification of people entering relationships with others. It is like a passage wherein a person goes into a essential dimension of his/herself.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    - It is a gift since it is a God-given power for love and generativity that we should learn as time progresses so that we may fully inegrate within ourselves.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    - God created us in his image. Gave us free will to grow and relate with other people. God created the way we would become eventually - our traits, emotions, abilities, and our sexuality.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    - A person can grow in chastity in such a way that we, christians, follow our moral obligations by being stronger that self sexual appetite, understanding the true value of sexuality, discipline feelings, and express sexuality in what God wants.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    - My reaction of the song as I saw the video was that I got shocked that people made those types of songs even if they knew of its meaning. I got shocked on how our generation have been becoming.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    - I would explain of what has happen to our human sexuality, and how it has changed in terms of what we are becoming. I would let people realize the wrong that we are doing in our human sexuality.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    Nature refers to the idea that one's behavior, traits and sexual preference is already decided at birth and that it's fixed on a person. Nurture theory suggests that traits, behavior and sexual desires are learnt from other people, role models and society. One theory suggests that sexual orientation is natural, while the other implies, it is a choice.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Freud is for Nature Theory, wherein everyone's sexual orientation is fixed from birth. This means to say that one's sexual drive is instinctive and natural. Locke, however supported the Nurture theory, stating that differences in traits between men and women in terms of behavior and sexual orientation is learnt from society including role models, and people around you.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Men and women experience different changes in puberty. Their main difference biologically, is in the genitals. Women have periods, and develop breasts, as well as experience pregnancy, while men have broad shoulders and a deeper voice.
    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    This is because society looks at sex as a vulgar matter, when it is really holy. Because of this, the topic must be discussed maturely, at the right place, at the right time.
    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Sex is for people to populate the earth. One's sexuality is no mistake, as God has reason for everything.
    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Sexuality comes from God, for a reason. It makes you who you are. God made sex for us to multiply and be fruitful. He has a plan for each of us, and our sexuality ismpart of it.
    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    The Bible only mentions two genders, and God commands them to be fruitful and multiply. Homosexuality is mentioned in the Old Testament, however, it is frowned upon and those caught in the act of same-sex intercourse were stoned.
    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    One needs a pure heart and mind. Sex is not something you need to survive, it is not meant for enjoyment, not pleasure. One must know and keep in mind these things to remain chaste.
    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    I was disgusted on how media twisted tue meaning of sex for money. It gives the next generation a false perception of sex, marking a time of sexual immorality when they grow older. One must learn to watch what their children are being exposed to.


    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    We must show the true meaning of sex. It not gross, it is not for enjoyment, but it is for procreation

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    Sexuality can be determined by the environment or by genetics, which causes the nature (genetics) vs nurture (environment) debate. The sexual behavior based on the environment focuses on the development of the personality or identity of a person in a given situation while the sexual behavior based on genetics focuses on the instinct of a person.
    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Sigmund Freud and John Locke were on opposing sides in the nature vs nurture debate. Sigmund Freud theorized that sexual behavior is based on one's genetics and believes that instincts are the principal motivating forces in the mental realm. John Locke, on the other hand, argues that sexual behavior is based on the different environments someone grows up in.
    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Physically a girl's body develops earlier than a boy's body and men tend to be more physically fit. Physcho-Emotionally males tend to be more competitive while females are more nurturing and caring. Males are moe task oriented while females mostly do things out of genuine love and concern.
    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    Families find it hard to talk about sexuality since it is considered as a taboo topic especially since our country is primarily a Catholic country. Parents find it difficult to talk about it because they feel awkward and the children do not know how to open up and talk to their parents about it. This lack of discussion causes the children to search for answers though other resources like the media or the internet.
    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Sexuality is an essential dimension of a person and it must be fully nurtured and developed . He or she must fully develop it before entering a relationship since it touches every aspect of the human life.
    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Sexuality is a gift since it is a God- given power to be able to love and be generous. It simply refers to everything about us being human. Sexuality is fundamental to us since it touches every aspect of our lives.
    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    In the bible we can found two basis, the first can be found in the book of Genesis (Gen 2:18) which talks about love and the other (Gen 1:27f, 31) talks about procreation.
    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    For a person to grow in chastity, he or she must have control over their sexual appetite. He or she must use their sexuality and feelings in accordance to God's plan.
    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    The song had a catchy beat but it portrays the untraditional and unconventional way sex is seen nowadays. The video showed several people sloppily making out and it really shows what the media has turned sexuality into. The video also showed different aspects of the LGBT community and how sexuality is perceived as the act itself.
    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    I would increase awareness about the true meaning of human sexuality by providing the correct information. I would also ask the youth to be open minded about this topic and not perceive it as the act itself.

    1) Nature vs Nurture Theory:
    - Within the context on Christian beliefs, sexual behaviour can be disputed to either be of innate/inherited trait that an individual is born with through genetics or a trait that is attained through one’s social environment in experiences.

    2) Sigmund Freud vs John Locke:
    - Freud supports the ideology behind the theory that sexuality is a central source of an individual’s personality. Moreover, he states that sex drives are justified through biology to instinctive and takes shape in two forms – Eros and Thanatos (Life/Death Instincts). On the other hand, Locke believes that people are shaped by their social environments and that we are all results of social influences that include sexuality.

    3) Man vs Woman (Biologically & Socially):
    - Men and women hold differences in their bodily designs, sexual organs, and build as a result of the different sex chromosomes received. To name a few justifiable social differences amongst the numerous idiotic and ridiculous standards beset by society that I detest, men are viewed to be more athletic and women are viewed to deal better with children. The other differences are ones I’d rather not name simply because I highly disagree with them.

    4) Why sexuality is seldom discussed openly in the family:
    - Growing up in a very open family, I cannot formulate an answer through personal experiences; however, not everybody has such a family background. More conservative families would rather not discuss such things; whether it is hopes that the children wouldn’t be exposed to the idea thus not looking to engage in the idea, or simply because they are uncomfortable with the topic.

    5) Christian view of sexuality:
    - Sexuality is said to be God’s gift to man, a tool to build intimate and love-filled relations with those we care for. It is the very essence that makes us human, not just simply the act of sex. It is an integral part of the formation of our personalities and one’s character.

  104. Migs Bonifacio JF (2/2)

    6) Why is human sexuality a gift:
    - Simply because of the beatitude behind sexuality, most especially the fact that it is made and done through love. Everything in our lives are gifts from God, most especially our sexuality. We being children of God are given through our sexuality the opportunity to share our love with others as God does with his love with us.

    7) Biblical basis of sexuality:
    - It is written that we humans were meant for two things. Firstly, to roam this world to care for and protect God’s wonderful creations and the other is that we are meant to bear the fruit of life (i.e. reproduce).

    8) How can a person grow in chastity?
    - First, one must gain the proper understanding of sexuality through being properly educated be it by an institution or even at home. Through this, one can learn to gain control over themselves and their desires. Our sexuality, like any precious gift, must be taken care of and treated with the utmost respect. Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and must be kept clean of any filth such as lustful abuse – be it us committing the abuse, or being abused ourselves, only through proper understanding and enlightenment can this be prevented.

    9) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    - The song encourages devaluing the sacredness of sexuality into a mere facile experience that anyone can go through anytime when in fact there is a level of holiness within the confines of sexual acts. Uncontrolled hormonal pubescent urges are depicted in the visual representation of the song with students at a prom gathering just going at each other without realizing the immorality behind doing such acts without the soul foundation of sexuality – love.


    10) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as Twitter and Facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    - Social media in and of itself is a construct of different perspectives and influences, one can even say that social media is the most influential source of opinions since it is such empowers everyone to share their thoughts and ideas for the world to see. It is because of this that we must be careful with what we share and what we choose to see. Just like our lives outside of social media, we decide what we surround ourselves with because what we are exposed to will hold reign over what we become. Firstly, I will secure my own opinions and make sure that they are always backed with truth and facts, not just some willy-nilly idea. Next, I will make sure to surround myself with sources that align with the path that God wants us to follow. Finally, I will share these ideologies in hopes of filling the feeds of my peers with righteous content aside from the forms of media such as songs, videos, and photos that lead them astray from goodness, rather bring them closer to sin.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    In the view of understanding human sexuality, two well-known theorists in their fields had opposing positions concerning this topic: Nature vs Nurture. According to Sigmund Freud, he believes that sexual drives are instinctive, thus, comes naturally to a human being. He views secuality as the central source of human personality. On the other hand, John Locke believed that the environment directly influences a person and develops their sexuality. He was a firm supporter in the nurture argument.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Freud's theory assumed that behavior was rooted in biology. He proposed that instincts are the principal motivating forces in the mental realm, but that they are reduced into two broad groups;

    Eros (the life instinct), which covers all the self-preserving and erotic instincts, and
    Thanatos (the death instinct), which covers instincts toward aggression, self-destruction, and cruelty.

    Locke’s theory assumed that people are shaped strongly by their social environments, especially by education. He believed that it would be accurate to view a child’s mind as a tabula rasa or blank slate; whatever goes into the mind will come from the surrounding environment. As the person develops, they discover their identity.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Firstly, men are generally task oriented, while most women tend to do things out of genuine love and concern for people. Moreover, girls seem to mature earlier than boys; whereas, men tend to be physically stronger than women. In addition, men tend to be competitive while women tend to be nurturing and protective. It is assumed that the husband is the primary breadwinner while the wife is expected to manage the home more than the husband.


    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Some parents fail to assume their right and duty to educate their children about sexual matters, since it may be awkward and uncomfortable to share such intimate affairs with their children. Thus, teenagers may think that sexuality is shameful, sinful, or taboo. In effect, teenagers try to get information outside the home like peers, friends or from the media.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Sexuality signifies an essential dimension of the whole person, by which he/she enters into relationship with others. It thus touches every aspect of personal life, and has to be developed by all men and women just as life itself must be. In addition, sexuality is not the same as the sex act.

    1. 6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

      Despite all misuses and misunderstandings, our human sexuality is something good! It is God-given power for love and generativity that we must learn to gradually integrate ever more fully within our total selves. Our sexuality refers to everything about our being human that makes us either male or female. It is a fundamental part of our being human.

      7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

      In Genesis, “God created man in his image… male and female he created them”

      From His marvelous plan, God willed us to be born, to grow, and to relate to others as a man or as a woman. Out of His infinite love for us, God has created the foundation of who we truly are to become—our physical traits, our emotions, our talents and abilities, ways of relating to others through our sexuality.

      8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
      Chastity means not having any sexual relations before marriage. It also means fidelity to husband or wife during marriage. A person can grow in chastity by controlling his or her sexual desires and urges, understanding the true value of sexuality, and expresses his or her sexuality in accordance with God’s plan.

      9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

      Human sexuality is a gift that touches every aspect of our being human and our dignity as persons. The song, Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get It on, completely destroyed the idea of human sexuality and the sexual act to the masses, especially to young teenagers like us. Although the song sounds fun and catchy, we must dig deeper and truly understand what the song was trying to convey. Nowadays, the idea of sex is being changed because of the wrong messages and ideas being sent out by social media and music.

      10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

      As we all know, the power of social media is very influential in our generation today. One literally cannot go a day without checking twitter, facebook, instagram and the like. These mediums of communication can be used to promote and revolutionise Human Sexuality among the youth. A good way to execute this plan is to form youth organizations and create accounts in these social media sites to spread awareness as to how the idea Human Sexuality is being destroyed in the world today. As these ideas spread in social media, the more the youth will be accepting to all forms of sexual identities.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    The Nature vs Nurture theory regarding human sexuality pertains to the two opposing beliefs of how one realizes their sexual identity/preference. It is stated that some believe that genetics are behind one’s sexuality, whereas others believe that one’s preference would depend on how he/she has been influenced/taught while growing up.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Locke believes in the Nurture Theory of human sexuality, wherein he believes that a person is born with a clean slate of mind. The person will continue to grow according to what he/she will learn through experiences, influences, and his/her environment. Meanwhile, Freud is a believer of the Nature aspect, which states that one is born with their assigned sexual identity and that this is a vital portion of one’s personality.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Biologically, it is believed that boys are slower to mature, compared to girls. Socially, girls are viewed as protective, caring and emotional, whereas men are viewed as the stricter, less emotional and more task oriented.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    Because sexuality is not something that is often taught or talked about between parents and their children. Along with this is how some teenagers refuse to talk to their parents regarding their sexuality, in fear of being resented or judged.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Christianity sees sexuality as a very important portion of our own personality, for it is the part that enables us to form romantic and platonic bonds with others.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    It is a gift, because it is how we choose to love others.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    God had created Adam & Eve, then he gave them the gift of sexuality for procreational purposes. Although, this only applies to couples who are married. Along with this, the Bible states that our body is His Temple, thus committing immoral sexual acts not only show our lack of self-respect, but they also show our lack of respect for God Himself.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    By treating his/her virginity and the act of sexual intercourse as something sacred, improving self-discipline by minimizing his/her sexual urges or tendencies, and by not engaging in sexual intercourse before marriage.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    A deeper understanding of the song’s lyrics has led me to believe that sex has been normalized in the music industry. The song has shown having sex as something to be celebrated, rather as something sacred.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    I would share on any social media platform how human sexuality indeed is a gift given to us by God. And how this should be treated as something sacred, not taken for granted. This is so that they can be educated regarding the topic, and so that they would not see sexuality as “how we prefer to have sex” but instead see it as “how we choose to love”.

    This is a theory that is explained by two theorists which opposes each other. One explains that your sexuality is gotten through experiences and the other explains that sexuality is gotten instinctively.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Sigmund Freud believes that sexuality is simply an instinct of a human being and it is simply given to us, according to him there are two types, eros and thanatos. John Locke on the other hand believes that ones sexuality is developed by his/her environment and it can differ based on the personality of a person.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    It is commonly known by majority that the men are those who work and provide for the family while the women are the ones who are in charge of the kids and the household. Although due to social changes, these are not always followed.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Due to the word being referred to as the act of sex. Because of this, kids now tend to become uncomfortable talking about this with family which truly should not be for this is an important topic.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    The Christian view of sexuality explains that it is not merely an act but the way of life and the way a person is.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    As I said in the previous number, sexuality is the way a person is. This means that sexuality is basically the way we are, and this was a gift from God which we should love and be thankful for.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    The bible states that there are only two types of sexuality, man or woman.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity if he/she stays a "virgin" until marriage has been attained.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    The video in my opinion is stupid because it gives people a wrong interpretation of what sex truly is. The video shows the people that sex is nothing important when it is the complete opposite.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    I would share my opinion and knowledge on human sexuality. But before anything else, I would change my self for the better to be able to set an example for others.

  108. 1) For me, human sexuality is the capacity of a person to go through erotic experiences. A person's sexuality can influence their sexual interest and their affection for another. As we can alliterate, it is just part of our nature—our instincts controls our belief and actions towards this topic. Nurture states that our sexuality is influenced by outside forces.

    2) Sigmund Freud said that sexual drives are seen in the perspective of sexuality and it is the center of a human being's character. On the other hand, John Locke believed that the mind takes control over our sexuality.

    3) It has been proven that girls mature earlier than boys physically. However, boys become a bit ruthless over things while girls tend to care more and become conscious.

    4) Although it is sad, sexuality is seldom accepted, especially to us Filipinos because of the reason that we tend to become awkward or feel unusual about it or "na-iilang". It is not a secret that we are not used to it and families tend to feel as if it weren't true. But we have to feel open about it as time goes by.

    1. With the Nature theory, human sexuality according to it is there from birth, and is determined from birth, while the nurture theory says that Human Sexuality is grown and developed as one grows as well
    2. Sigmund Freud is for the Nature Theory, which means he believes that a human has his traits from birth and as instincts, while John Locke is for Nurture Theory, which means he believes that humans grow and develop based on their environment and circumstances around their growth.
    3. Biologically speaking, man and woman develop differently most noticeably at puberty, where women develops their breasts, start having periods and the ability to become pregnant whereas males develop physical strength, broad shoulders, etc. Socially speaking, males tend to be more competitive and are task-oriented, while females are more nurturing and do things out of love or compassion.
    4. Sexuality is seldom discussed in the family because it is an awkward topic for them to discuss and some families may consider the topic to be taboo.
    5. It is viewed as a gift from God and an essential dimension of a relationship
    6. Human sexuality is a gift because it helps us to love another and to help us to form families.
    7. When God made Man, named Adam, He also created a partner to exist alongside Adam, a female named Eve. From this, we can say that since creation, there had always been a Male and Female for man.
    8. One can grow in chastity as long as they stay pure in their thoughts and judgement, and to view Sex and Sexuality as a pure and sacred topic, not to be just thrown around so casually.
    9. I am disgusted how this song used the topic of sexuality so casually, like how the song is basically implying "Hey let's have sex for fun!" which is against our topic of Human Sexuality which views the act of sex as a sacred act of love, and not as something which can be done so casually.
    10. First, I would start by recommending to others the use of the report button on every social media site to take down any content that would downplay our sexuality. Next, I will promote values of chastity through the use of social media accounts, through showing the meaning of chastity and how it can be seen and done in real life.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Some believe that our sexuality is determined by genetics, while others believe that it is influenced by our surroundings

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Sigmund Freud supported the nature theory, while John Locke supported the nurture theory.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Physically, women mature earlier than men, but men are much stronger than women. Socially, men are more task oriented and competetive, while women are more nurturing and protective.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality is an awkward topic to discuss among children for a lot of families, so children will think of it as taboo, look through unreliable sources, and have a misunderstanding of the true meaning of human sexuality.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    In Christianity, sexuality is a gift from God and is an essential part of a person when entering a relationship with others. It is not the act itself, but it emphasizes on relationships, like marriage.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    It is a gift because God gave us this to have the freedom to form relationships with others.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    When Adam and Eve were made, God gave them genders to form a relationship to procreate. However, there is a certain boundary in procreating, for they have to be married, which is also a gift from God.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    A person can grow in chastity by not giving in to temptation of having pre-marital sex, and remaining faithful to your partner.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    The song promotes the act itself, and it could be misunderstood as the meaning of human sexuality. It does not discuss chastity, relationships and etc., therefore should not be mistaken for the true meaning of human sexuality.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    Nature theory states that we humans were born with the instincts and drive for the exploration of sexuality. Contrary, Nurture theory assures us that we learn human sexuality by adapting through our environments and through gained knowledge.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Nature, from Sigmund Freud, is the belief that human sexuality comes from instinct. We are born with the willingness to participate in these acts. However, John Locke believed in an opposite idea of nurture. He believed that human sexuality is learned and developed through observations and study.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Biologically, a man and a woman can be told differently from birth through the contrast of human genitalia. A man has a penis, while a woman has a vagina. Socially, the differences between man and woman would be observed in their roles. Commonly, a man would provide for his family while a woman would do house chores. However, the status quo is adapting and varying. This does not seem to be the case all the time. Although still common, there may be other differences worthy of mentioning. Such as the labor force, women tend to do jobs that have less physical actions since they are believed to have weaker capabilities.
    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    In my opinion, sexuality is not discussed since it is marked to be a shameful subject. Moreover, I also believe that parents would leave it up to their children to discover it on their own. Consequently, this may support the nature argument in the belief that parents find their children to already have natural instinct.
    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Sexuality is a gift. It is God's gift to man and woman. It gives us the capability to love and show compassion. Sexuality is not the act alone. Rather, it makes us whole as it signifies an essential dimension of man and woman.
    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    It is a gift since God has made us social beings. We must gather together in order to continue our race and in doing so, we promote love and kindness. We share in God's mission to share our love and blessings due to our sexuality. We are called to each other and thus, we are one in God's name.
    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    There are many passages in the bible that offer its origin and purpose. To summarize, God gave us sexuality as a gift to multiply and love one another. Furthermore, sexuality acts as a bond between man and woman. Making them one, through the love of God and for each other.
    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    One can do this by remaining pure. It is a virtue not to commit premarital sex. Chastity upholds true freedom. It is the direct opposite of sex. To remain chaste, one must not only refuse sexual urges, but also to remain free from lust of other forms.

    1. 9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
      The song is very vulgar in nature. It simply uses another person's name as a code for sex. It has no respect for sexuality and proves it to be a mere act with no religious obligation whatsoever. It is a disgrace of a musical artwork. I see no love in this song. There is only darkness and distaste.
      10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
      The youth now spends most of their time online. Therefore, I would contribute to the articles of sexuality and tell them the truth about it. Once they scroll down, they'll be able to read what sexuality really means and how to treat it with respect and use it for love. It will instruct them to remain chaste and go towards the teachings of the Lord.

  112. 1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    The Nature Theory states that your sexuality is something that is God-given and something that we are born with. Even though we go through different experiences, our sexuality will stay the same since it is from God. The Nurture Theory, on the other hand, states that a person’s sexuality is based on the environment he is surrounded by. It is built around his personally and influenced by the people around him.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    He depicts that a person’s human sexuality is based on their own natural being. It is based on how a person acts or their behavior towards certain beliefs. Locke believes that human sexuality is embodied based on how a person is influenced by nurture, wherein he/she is shaped through experience and the behavioral tendencies of others.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Man is the stronger one physically and the Woman is the worker of the house. Socially, the Men are more "powerful" because there are more jobs open to them.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    To some parents, they fail to teach their children about sexuality when they were younger. This is a reason why when they're older, they would think it's a taboo or sinful.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Christianity views sexuality emphasizes and focuses on a person by which that person has a relationship with others. This God-given gift is what allows love to flow around and interactions to come and go.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Human sexuality is a gift since through this, God gives us the capability to love and be loved. Also, this is something that affects our daily lives, personality and how we deal with matters. It gives us the opportunity to be able to share true love with someone else
    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    The biblical basis of sexuality is another way for us to grow physically and emotionally and to be able to love and to help in reproduction.
    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    A person can grow in chastity by having self-control and conscience. Another is that, the person should have understanding about the concept of sex and what it really is; coming from God’s words. One must also extrapolate these concepts and relate it with the teachings of God. We must not give in to our temptations.
    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    Even if it isn't directly stated the song does commercialize sex in a way that it is no longer sacred. It turns sex into a casual activity which isn't right.
    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    I will begin a campaign to be able to spread and gain awareness on the alarming view of human sexuality in our current generation. Through my social media sites, I will show how human sexuality really must be viewed, through many visuals and inspirational messages.

  113. 5) According to a source, nothing in the Bible says that sexuality is wrong both the Bible holds the view that sex is such a mysterious and powerful thing that it is ought to bring certain boundaries, like marriage. It is something to be taken seriously and used in God's service and not as something you'd do for fun.
    source:
    http://www1.cbn.com/biblical-view-sexuality

    6) human sexuality is na essential thing for human Nature but God did not intend it to be the main reason for us to be here. Jesus addresses the importance of marriage and human sexuality. Jesus also taught that love is more than sex in a primary bond as Christians.
    source: https://www.cmalliance.org/about/beliefs/perspectives/human-sexuality

    7) God has declared that sex is a present to a male and female. Moreover, sex is only limited to those married in the presence of the Lord.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    * The nature theory is viewing humans to live according to the sex he or she is born as, either male or female. The nurture theory, on the other hand, says that human sexuality is influenced by genetics and developed through the environment he/she is exposed to.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    * Sigmund Freud and John Locke have different beliefs on the nature vs nurture theory. Freud's theory says that our behavior is dependent on our biological nature. Meanwhile, Locke sees the mind as a "tabula rasa", or a blank slate. He says that the environment a child is raised in is responsible for the development of a person's identity.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    * In the biological aspect, the two can be differentiated from one another by the organs they are born with. Generally, girls mature faster than boys. In social differences, however, they are identified by how they appear (the way they dress) and act.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    * Sexuality is seldom discussed openly in the family because of our culture. It is often thought of as "awkward", therefore is avoided. However, it is the responsibility of the parents to educate their children on these matters.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    * It is viewed as essential dimension of the whole person. It is when someone engages into a relationship with another person. In the Christian view, this is seen more as a feeling, rather than a sexual act.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    * Human sexuality is a gift from God. It was created for love and generatively.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    * Evidences on sexuality can be seen in the book of Genesis. It is stated that man should not be alone, henceforth God created a partner for him. Man and woman were created to be fertile and multiply.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    * The person must first understand its true meaning, which is to be pure. It is to not have any sexual relations before marriage. In order for a person to grow in chastity, he or she must do what is good in the eyes of God.

    9.)  Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    * I found it surprising to discover how explicit the lyrics in this song were. I never took the time to really listen to the message this song was trying to portray, which happens to be "let's have sex". Human sexuality is not the act of sex alone. Personally, it is disappointing to think that most people think this is the true meaning of sexuality.

    10.)  How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.    
    * To revolutionize social media on human sexuality, accurate information and values must be shared regarding the topic in a proper and respectful manner. This way, we can show the correct meaning and true essence of human sexuality among the youth.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    Nature vs Nurture are just two theories on how one believes in their sexual identity or preference. Nature is on how the genetics of a person is behind their sexuality while nurture is about how a person is being raised or brought up that is behind their sexuality.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John

    Freud believes in the nature theory wherein he believes that one is born into their assigned sexuality. The genetics of a person is a big part. While Locke believes in the nurture theory wherein he thinks that every human is born from scratch. He believes that they grow and know more about who they truly are when they are growing up, especially with all the influences.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    Socially, girls are more emotional and caring. They seem to overthink things while boys are more energetic and less emotional. Biologically, girls mature faster than boys.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    This is because sexuality can be a sensitive topic for lots. It is not usually talked about between parents and their offsprings. Most are usually uncomfortable when talking about this.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Sexuality in a Christian view plays a very big part. Sexuality may be the connection and difference between two people.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Sexuality is a gift because it is something one has to themselves. It isn't like any other thing.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    A very famous biblical basis of sexuality is Adam and Eve. He created man and women for a purpose. That purpose is to take care of his creation and to procreate. Other than that, we are all a symbol of his love.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    One can grown in chastity by respecting his/her sexuality. One must treat his/her virginity well. One also must be disciplines and responsible. Our sexuality isn't something to just give away and this can help us grow but knowing our true purpose with it.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    What I got to understand from the song is that in our generation's music, it has been more about sex. The song "Let's Marvin Gaye and Get it on" makes people think that it's ok to just treat our sexuality like it's nothing but we must really truly understand why we are given with such gift.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    One thing I can assure doing with social media is to bring out awareness about all of this. People must be aware on how important and sacred our sexuality is. One must know how to treat and respect themselves. I may share some biblical maps sages regarding human sexuality so that people can have a deeper understand on the said topic.

  116. 8) A person can grow in chastity by learning how to control things in his/her life. He/She has to know that sexual relations is only for those who are united by God in Holy Matrimony and nothing else. We also have to be open-minded to God 's love and accept it as a whole. We should also resist to temptations and profess our love for God instead.

    9) As a Christian, I feel ashamed of what humanity has truly become. We have played with such carelessness towards the real reason why there is sex. It is saddening that the fact that people are aware of the terms of chastity, they still disrupt their thoughts by giving in to this kind of "thing."

    10) First thing I would do is to really limit the amount of children to social media especially iPads and the such technology we are given today. They should be playing in sandboxes and not staying on their iPad the whole day. I can also help promote by spreading awareness towards Chastity and God's love for us—which is eternal.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    The nature theory states that sexual drives are instinctive. It states that we are born with sexuality. On the other hand, the nurture theory states people are shaped strongly by their social environments.


    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.

    Freud believed that our behavior and actions are instinctive. He believed that there are two groups in which our instincts can be classified under. The life instinct (Eros) covers all the self preserving and erotic instincts while the death instinct (Thanatos) covers instincts towards aggression and cruelty. However, Locked believed that our environment and the people around us play a big part in our behavior. He believes that the things that go into our mind come from the environment. He states that as a person grows and develops, they discover more of themselves.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman

    Generally, men are more focused in completing their task and getting the job done right. On the other hand, women do things because they love to do these things. More often than not, they put their heart into what they are doing and do things with more consideration of other people. Women are also more protective and nurturing compared to men due to the fact that men are more competitive. Though men are physically stronger than women, women mature earlier than men.


    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    Sexuality may be an awkward topic to talk about not just for the children in the family but also the parents. Since our country consists mainly of Christians, the topic becomes even harder to bring up. Parents are unable to educate their children about sexuality. This leads their children to get information about sexuality outside their families and homes. Because of this, they do not understand the full meaning of human sexuality and the truths may even be distorted.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    Sexuality signifies an essential dimension of the person. It talks about every aspect of personal life and should still be developed. According to the Bible, human sexuality is God’s gift to us. This sexuality refers to everything about our being human that makes us either male or female. Because sexuality plays such a big part in our being human, it is more than just the sexual act. Sexuality may be expressed in many different ways. These ways may be the clothes we choose to wear or the way we communicate with other people or even the way we understand and master our feelings.

    ReplyDelete
  118. 6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    Human sexuality is a considered a gift from God because it is the God given power for love and generativity. As mentioned above, it refers to our dignity that we must continue to develop and strengthen.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    In Genesis 2:18, God said that He has a partner planned for us so that we will not be alone. In Matthew 19:4-5, Jesus mentions that men and women are meant to be together. Genesis 1:27;31, God created man and woman so that they may unite and procreate. In general, all these Bible passages mention that we were never meant to be alone. God has set aside a partner for us so that we may live out HIs plans for us to multiply.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?

    One can grow in chastity by controlling his or her sexual appetite meaning that he or she should not give in to the temptations of lust. He or she should understand the true value of sexuality, that is more than just the act but is also our dignity and that it is a God given gift. Furthermore, one must be able to discipline themselves in terms of sexual drives. He or she must also be able to express his or her sexuality in accordance with God’s plan.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.

    The song shows that our generations view on sexuality is completely misunderstood. The video shows that people no longer have respect for each other’s bodies and sexuality. This video shows just some of the lustful acts that our generation has been getting into.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.

    In order to catch the attention of the attention of the youth, we have to educate them in interesting and unique ways. These ways may be through videos, posters, interviews, surveys and many more. I will make use of my social media in order to share videos and photos about God’s plan and message for us. I can also use social media to cite experiences and things I have seen happen around me.

    1)Defined, 'nurture' is where a certain behaviour is gained from the environment of a person, rather than there to begin with. In contrast, 'nature' says the behaviour was always present, even if there was no previous evidence of it before.


    2)Freud Vs. Locke
    >>Freud stood for the nature side of the debate, believing that sexuality was based on "instinct."
    >>On the other hand, Locke said that sexuality was the result of one's "social environments."


    3)Differences between a male and female
    >>Biological/Physical
    >>>The age of maturity is earlier for girls (18 years old) than boys (21 years old).

    >>Social
    >>>Some girls are discouraged from initiating any romantic actions (e.g. asking out on a date)
    >>>It is more common for girls to be more openly emotional than guys. It's not that males don't feel the emotion differently, but it's not as "accepted" among them.


    4)I think this is because many see it as such a personal or private topic, not something you'd discuss


    5)Sexuality is seen as, "everything about our being human that makes us either male or female."


    6)"It is God-given power for love and generativity that we must learn to gradually integrate ever more fully within our total selves. "


    7)


    8)One could try to be more aware of what content they are exposed to. Be a bit more alert to such things.


    9)(This is an OPINION.) I found the video to be rather funny and exaggerated, but there are bits of truth in it. I admit that I was stalling my laughs while watching it.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    The nature vs nurture theory was created to understand human sexuality. Nature basically states that our sexuality is mapped out in our genes; it's biological. On the other hand nurture says that our sexuality is influenced by our environment.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Freud supported the nature theory. He said that our sexuality is part of our biology, an instinct for us humans. Locke coined the term "tabula rasa" meaning blank slate. Our sexuality develops and is influenced by our environment and what we're exposed to.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Women mature earlier compared to men and are thought of as nurturing while the men are competitive. In the past, women were just seen as house-wives while men were the ones who got to work and study. In the present, more women are given the opportunity to study, to get a job and to pursue their passions, not just stay at home.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    It's an awkward topic to discuss with your children, especially when the parents don't really know what sexuality is either. It's also seen as taboo, something that shouldn't be discussed out in the open. Most parents think of the word sexuality as just the act and that's why they avoid talking about it. But this is wrong, it is much better to talk about it rather than having kids explore for themselves.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Sexuality isn't just the act for us Christians. It's our whole being and how we express ourselves. It's who we are and how we show it to the world. It's how we do, say and think. It's a fundamental part of being human, it actually makes us human.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    It's a gift from God to us. He gave us power to express ourselves through love and sexuality. It's not just an act, it's how we carry ourselves and how we relate other human beings. Sexuality is something that helps us know more about ourselves, and it's God's gift for us to know each other better.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    Sexuality is based on the story of Adam and Eve. God said "man is not meant to be alone." Thus He created Eve and gave them the gift to procreate as well. Here God allows them to relate to each other. God made sexuality not just for procreation, He gave it to us for us to relate to each other, as man and woman.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    A person can grow in chastity by controlling his/her sexual urges, even at a young age. He/she should also not engage in pre-marital sex and should obey the commandments. He/she must learn to keep lustful thoughts at bay and let God help him/her to grow in grace in chastity. He/she must also not engage in infidelity when the time comes.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    The song Let's Marvin Gaye and Get it On has a lot of sexual innuendoes and messages. Unfortunately, sex is dumbed down and degraded in this song. Sex is supposed to be intimate and sexuality is not just sex. This song has a lot of things wrong and understanding sexuality in CL class has helped me to understand what sexuality really is. It's a gift and it's your whole being. It's how you express yourself not acts on a bed.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    First I would correctly define sexuality. Many still have the misconception that sexuality is just sex. The I would promote equality among the sexes and the importance of knowing your sexuality. Sexuality is how you express yourself, it's part of who you are and we need to embrace it. The youth needs to know that sexuality is an important part of growing up and maturing to the person God wants you to be. Sexuality is a gift that we should appreciate, use and get to know better.

    Sir Cloyd, I'm so sorry I couldn't send this on time. I haven't had internet access since Tuesday because I had to stay in the hospital with my dad and the wake of my Lola. It's been a stressful week.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    In lie of nature, it states that our sexuality is biological, and is explained through the tabulation of our genes. Whereas with nurture, it states that the different factors in our surroundings such as in society determine or influence or sexuality.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    Freud's theory assumed that behavior is rooted in biology. He said that instincts are the principal motivating forces in the mental realm. His instinct theory said humans are driven from birth by the desire to acquire and enhance bodily pleasures, thus supporting the nature debate. John Locke rejected the assumption that there are innate differences among people and said people are strongly influenced by their social environments, especially by education. He believed it is accurate to view a child's mind as a tabula rasa or blank slate; whatever goes into the mind originates in the surrounding environment.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    Men are usually viewed as the stronger, protective, and more competitive one. They are seen as the main provider and supporter of the family, while women on the other hand, are seen as the ones who are more nurturing and loving especially to their children. However, in today's present times, women are now just as equal as men are.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    First of all, it only becomes an awkward topic because parents try to avoid such discussion in the hopes that if it isn't talked about, their children will be less exposed to acts such as premarital sex. And since parents don't bring it up, children tend to explore this world by themselves.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    Sexuality in Christianity is seen as a God-given gift to able to connect and love with one another.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    Like the rest of God’s creation, the sexual differences between man and woman are pronounced “very good” (Genesis 1:31). We therefore affirm human sexuality to be a gift of God. By God’s grace, human sexuality both enriches and fulfills our personhood.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    Sexuality is an essential attribute of human nature. It is an obviously significant influence in human life, but our Creator did not intend it to be the defining characteristic of humanness. As a result of humankind’s fall from innocence (Genesis 3), the complementary nature of human sexuality, like all other human relationships has been distorted.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    A person can grow in chastity by understanding the true value of human sexuality by having patience in waiting for the one, and having self-control by not misusing the acts of sexuality.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    I think this plays a great role in influencing the youth about human sexuality. It allows them to think that being unwholesome, especially at this time and age in high school is something that you would call "normal". It's dangerous for those who are not properly educated on human sexuality, as they wouldn't know what's okay and not.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    I will campaign by making blog posts about my stand, and through my voice I will persuade people to give value to their sexuality. I will also make witty, eye-catching posters or infographics so people will be able to understand what their sexuality really means.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.
    The nature argument states that the sexuality of a person is determined by biological factors, what you are born with is how you will live. Nurture on the other hand, states that the sexual orientation of a person is molded by his/her surroundings and environment.

    2.) Discuss Sigmund Freud and John Locke's contention of nature vs nurture.
    John Locke believes that every single new born baby is born with a blank slate, while Sigmund Freud believes that everyone is born already with an identity. Through nurture, we are molded. By nature, we are given our sexuality and personality.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.
    A man is generally physically stronger than a woman. This is mainly because of the build of their bodies and differences of hormones. They have different sexual organs. Socially a man is supposed to be in charge of the welfare of his family, a woman on the other hand handles the errands of the household and takes care of each family member.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?
    It is only seldom discussed because it is a very sensitive topic. It talks about one's personal life and his/her opinions that can offend someone else.

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.
    The Christian view of sexuality is that males are supposed to be attracted to females and vice versa. This view is pro-life and teaches us that the prime goals of life is to continue it through reproduction.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?
    It allows us humans to express our love to another. Without it, life would be bland and emotionless. It relates to God's greatest gift of all, the ability to love one another.

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.
    The bible talks about the responsibilities of a man/woman to his/her spouse. When married, one does not have authority to his/her own body anymore but the spouse does.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    A person can grow in chastity if they grow up believing in good thoughts and values.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    I can say that the song Marvin Gaye uses the concept of sexuality to attract more viewers and listeners. People are suddenly interested in something when it talks about sexuality because it's a popular topic.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth.
    I can share my own thoughts about sexuality to the entire world. I'll tell them that what is important is that you love the person that you are with. It is also worthless to love someone who does not love you back.

    1.Nature is by the environment while nurture is sexual behaviour with genetics.

    2.Locke believes that we all develop over time and Freud said that we attain them naturally

    3.Men are stronger physically and more competitive unlike women who are nurturing, and women mature quicker

    4.It is rarely discussed because it makes people very uncomfortable

    5.Christian view of sexuality helps people from relationships with others

    6.Human sexuality is a gift because it was given to us to go forth and multiply

    7.It is stated in Gen 2:24 that a mean gets married and leaves his parents he will reproduce with his wife which is a gift from god

    8.chastity is grown if he or she avoids sexual activities and surrounds themselves with people who think and act the same

    9.It doesn’t really talk about sexual activities, but it portrayed that it is normal to have sex anytime, anywhere.

    10.Social media is the best way to promote and share Gods word, simply because everyone is always online and they would for sure see your post if ever they see your sharing.

    1.) Discuss nature vs nurture theory in view of understanding human sexuality.

    3.) Discuss the biological and social differences between a man and a woman.

    4.) Why is sexuality seldom discussed openly in the family?

    5.) Discuss the Christian view of sexuality.

    6.) Why is human sexuality a gift?

    7.) Discuss the Biblical basis of sexuality.

    8.) How can a person grow in chastity?
    *One must know his morals and have the strength to resist the temptations that they may come across, the best way to fight this is through God’s grace.

    9.) Give your reaction in view of the song Let’s Marvin Gaye and Get it on in relation to our topic: Human Sexuality.
    *This song objectifies human sexuality and makes it seem like something very shallow. The song promotes sex and shows it off as something that is simple and holds no limits.

    10.) How will you promote or revolutionize the social media such as twitter and facebook or Instagram as regards the true and proper treatment of HUMAN SEXUALITY most especially among the youth
    * I would remind people and raise awareness about the true meaning of human sexuality. It would remind people that sexuality should be respected by all.
