The article Sex In America: How Many Partners Do We Have? Written by Robert Michael, John H.Gagnon, Edward O.Laumann, and Gina Rolata, is about how human sexual behavior with numerous of different people have increased over time in America today. It seems to be the only way of getting this problem to subside is turning to the old traditional roots of marriage. Since more people have been getting married, less people have been having sex with a whole bunch of different partners. Having sex with a certain amount of people depending upon your age isn't necessarily bad. Being ashamed to admit how many partners you've sexually engaged with is a problem.
     Chapter 11 focus all on the issue of gender and sexuality. Specifically with in this chapter I read a section called Sexual Harassment. This section talks about the various forms of sexual harassment and what goes on in these different harassment cases. Sexual harassment has become a big problem in our society. This situation will keep increasing if we as people don't put a stop to it.
      Sex is the biological distinction between females and males. In contrast, gender refers to the socially constructed cultural expectations associated with women and men. What this means is telling the difference between a female and man and distinguishing the difference between each role that belong to whatever sex. Gender and sex is included in everything you say and do. These two things are what make us and life. Without sex and gender there wouldn’t be any people or world.
