Coworkers And AIDS: Attitudes
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Fear and intolerance comprise the vast majority of attitudes towards AIDS within the workplace. Even though the general public is well-educated by now as to the safety issues associated with contact to an AIDS patient, there still remains unfounded apprehension when it comes to working within the same environment as those with AIDS. Clearly, the HIV/AIDS population faces considerably more challenges than other members of society do, in that they have to struggle just to achieve a modicum of acceptance. Their societal counterparts, who are frequently ignorant to deeper issues surrounding the disease, often unknowingly make them feel inadequate and worthless when it comes their life choices. Inasmuch as the workplace is often a hotbed for judgmental attitudes, AIDS patients have experienced undue stress that is directly related to workplace attitudes. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Does a Gay and Lesbian Community Exist?
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report
discusses whether or not a Gay and Lesbian community truly exists
in America and what exactly that means. Those who would question
whether or not a Gay and Lesbian community actually exists would
be remarkably hard pressed to prove that it doesn’t. With
celebrity admission of homosexuality, the changes in the
political structures of society, and the ongoing sense of
acceptance throughout numerous “mainstream” social institutions
such as those associated with religion or higher learning, the
existence of the Gay and Lesbian community cannot be discounted.
Bibliography lists 4 sources.
