What are the three (3) things that you significantly learned from the
reading? Please start by saying ' Before reading the article, I used to think
that (insert thought). After reading the article, I now think that (insert
thought)'.
a) Before reading the article, I assumed that sex and sexual orientation rights
are distinct from other types of liberties.
After reading the article, as a person has the right to gender, I believe the
two complement each other.
b) Before reading the article, I used to assume that sex and gender rights were
unique from human rights, since human rights, according to my
understanding, spanned a broader spectrum, whereas gender rights covered
a smaller range.
After reading the article, I now believe they are in contradiction with one
another, affecting both rights. Nonetheless, prejudice against other genders
persists today, and justice appears to be delayed by a number of
impediments.
c) Before reading the article, I used to believe that our sexual orientation and
gender identity might change over time, and that people were more
accepting and receptive to same-sex partnerships as time went.
After reading the article, that certain nations and countries still regard these
activities to be unlawful and evil, particularly in conservative countries. One
of three topics in the reading that I am still confused about is the
relationship of STDs such as HIV and AIDS to the issue. It appears that the
two concerns should be handled separately.
2. What three (3) things about the reading are unclear to you?
a. The link between STDs such as HIV and AIDS and the topic appears to be
two distinct issues that should be investigated separately.
b. To me, the concept of displaced person status associating with sex direction
is still extremely hazy.
c. To me, the point concerning sexual orientation and environmental change is
still unclear.
3. What three (3) questions that you want to ask about the reading?
a. Since this reading appears to be more focused on the western part of the
globe, I'd like to understand more about what our government is doing to
encourage gender equality in human rights movement.
b. I'm interested in learning more about HIV/AIDS. Why is this
misunderstanding directed just towards LGBTQ+IA persons, yet straight
couples can also acquire it?
c. Given the plethora of rules and articles aimed at preserving people's gender
and human rights, wouldn't there be some ambiguity about what to look at
or what to refer to?
