PROSPECTUS FOR COMPLEXITY OF SEXUALITY RESEARCH PAPER 3

Sexuality is something that affects all individuals irrespective of their gender. Nevertheless, it is a highly complex issue thereby leading to diverse feelings, ideas, and opinions about sexuality. The differences create confusion on how sexuality should be addressed and this has led to some forms of sexuality being preferred over others. It is important to understand that sexuality is a natural thing and no single person should be discriminated upon. However, this is only possible with clear understanding of sexuality in all its complexity. In this research paper, I intend to research sexuality from its complexity perspective. The intention is to shed light on how complex sexuality is; the reasons behind the complexity for instance advancement and industrialization, and different types of sexualities and how they differ as well as relate in other ways.

For the research, I will make use of e-books, peer-reviewed journals, and scholarly articles to gather as much information as possible. These types of sources have been found suitable for the research because the issue of sexuality has been researched in the past by other professional researchers and their research articles are available online. Also, there are professional books available online that have addressed sexuality in its entirety. These different sources would be used to accumulate data that will be combined to come up with sensible and valid data. the more reason is that in some of these sources, there is first-hand information from people with clear understanding and experience on sexuality complexity. The information gathered shall be phrased in a manner the audience would understand how complex sexuality is and why it is important to treat people from all types of sexualities with respect and dignity. Moreover, the research will shed more light in why people of specific sexuality behave the way they do in most cases differing from people of a different sexuality.
