· What did you learn and what questions do you still have in response to the Kaufman, Stein, and Owens pieces? If you watched the Sex on Wheels documentary, what stories stood out to you?

· What thoughts do you have in response to the Tabaac article on gender disparities in cancer screenings? What measures could be taken to decrease these disparities?

· How has your own sense of sexuality, including libido, changed during your life because of stress, medical conditions, life events, and other priorities?

· What do you define as “sexually normal”? Has your definition during the course of your life, or even during the course of this class?

· Do you think “sexual addiction” is a useful diagnosis? What thoughts or questions do you still have after reading Marty Klein’s article and the Joannides chapter on the subject? (Sex addiction is also addressed on pages 269 in our textbook- you are welcome to address that page as well).

Write a minimum 500 words discussion post. Be sure to address the class materials in your assignment.
