anatomy. The resources* coordinated for this topic provide engaging and different ways

to ingest the information on both male and female sexual anatomy. Second, in "The

Psychology of Human Sexuality, Chapter 4", our focus is on the male and female sexual

response cycles. This week's discussion provides an opportunity to reflect on the legal

and ethical issues involved in certain medical procedures, to include chemical castration.
