  • The Tumbling Wall Breaking the Silence About Abortion
    Chapter One The Tumbling Wall Breaking the Silence About Abortion "Abortion is the dread secret of our society," began Lawrence Lader's Abortion,' When the book was published in early 1966, abortion was "the dread secret" that everyone knew. Somewhere between two hundred thousand and 1.5 million women received abortions in the United States each year, with most estimates hovering around one million. Of these, only eight thousand a year were legal. But these figures belie the public perception of abortion. Abortion was pervasive in numbers only; as a news story, as a political issue, and as a matter of public scrutiny, abortion had been shrouded in a cloak of silence for decades. Legal abortion was a cause without a voice. The experiences of the one million women a year who terminated their pregnancies through an underground network of abortionists ranging from back-alley butchers to Park Avenue surgeons were largely unarticulated. Abortion was taboo, and to write about it was a bad career move for a journalist; to speak about it as a politician was at best naive, at worst politically suicidal. In 1966, however, the ice was beginning to melt. "The 'conspiracy of silence' to which Lawrence Lader alludes in his new book is gradually being breached," wrote Edwin Schur in a review of Abortion in The Nation. Abortion was gradually creeping its way into the news. For example, from 1961 to 1964, The New York Times published a total of only forty-six articles pertaining to abortion, the vast majority of which were about criminal trials of abortionists.

  • The History of Sex Education Provides an Essential Founda- Tion for Understanding the Current State of Sex Education in America
    A History of Sex Education in the United States Since 1900 Valerie J. Huber Michael W. Firmin ABSTRACT: We provide a historical perspective toward the current public school practices of American sex education. The primary time frames include the progressive era (1880–1920), intermediate era (1920–1960), the sexual revolution era (1960s and 1970s), and the modern sex education era (1980s to the present). In each period, we highlight key developments that affect educators’ current decision making as public sex education continues to develop and morph in the context of contemporary society. We show that an apt understanding of sex education’s past is critical for making prudent decisions about its future. The historical record of sex education in American public schools is Arelatively short. Developments after 1900 were the emphasis in this study, but a brief examination of events prior to 1900 provided an important foundation. Cultural and moral gatekeepers made sexual experimentation a forbidden activity during early American history, but those gates were forced open by a series of events after the turn of the 20th century. Sex Education in America Before 1900 Little has been written about sex education before 1900 (Pearsall, 2001). Searches within typical academic research vehicles do not provide much in- formation. Traditionally, in early American history, the home was the place where discussions of sex took place, and, even then, the conversations tended to be minimal, usually a mix of practical physiology and moral instruction, grounded in religious standards (Peterson, 1983). Some children would learn about reproduction from watching animals in the barnyard, since much of early American society was agrarian.

  • History of Sex Education in the U.S
    Current as of November 2016 History of Sex Education in the U.S. The primary goal of sexuality education is the promotion of sexual health (NGTF, 1996). In 1975, the World Health Organization (WHO) offered this definition of sexual health: Sexual health is the integration of the somatic, emotional, intellectual, and social aspects of sexual being, in ways that are positively enriching and that enhance personality, communication, and love. Fundamental to this concept are the right to sexual information and the right to pleasure. The concept of sexual health includes three basic elements: 1. a capacity to enjoy and control sexual and reproductive behavior in accordance with a social and personal ethic; 2. freedom from fear, shame, guilt, false beliefs, and other psychological factors inhibiting sexual response and impairing sexual relationship; and 3. freedom from organic disorders, diseases, and deficiencies that interfere with sexual and reproductive functions. Thus the notion of sexual health implies a positive approach to human sexuality, and the purpose of sexual health care should be the enhancement of life and personal relationships and not merely counseling and care related to procreation or sexually transmitted diseases (WHO, 1975). WHO’s early definition is at the core of our understanding of sexual health today and is a departure from prevailing notions about sexual health — and sex education — that predominated in the 19th and 20th centuries. Until the 1960s and 1970s, the goals of social hygiene and moral purity activists eclipsed broader sexual health concerns in the public health arena. Their narrow goals were to prevent sexually transmitted infections, stamp out masturbation and prostitution, and limit sexual expression to marriage (Elia, 2009).

Chair ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I owe debts of gratitude that I cannot repay to so many who have helped so much with this dissertation. First, I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to Don Reed whose experience, scholarship, flexibility, warmth, kindness, and belief in my ability to “produce gold,” has helped shape my work. I also want to thank Gail Furman whose high expectations, exacting standards, skillful teaching, and insightful feedback have pushed me to heights beyond my original expectations. I also acknowledge the help Dennis Ray provided in launching me on the road to scholarship. Without his vision for the field-based superintendent program and his energy in making it a reality, I would not have pursued my doctoral degree through Washington State University. He gave me most of the foundation I needed first to become a superintendent and later a scholar. Finally, I want to thank Mike Trevisan for filling in at the last minute and providing valuable insight and feedback as I approached the conclusion of my doctoral program.

  • World Centers38. Additionally, GSGNY Featured39 Member Participationas a WAGGGS Delegate at the United Nations RIO+20 Conferenc
    Pro-Life Concerns: Girl Scouts of Greater New York, Girl Scouts USA, WAGGGS Significant pro-life concerns exist about the Girl Scouts at all levels of the organization: local (Girl Scouts of Greater New York – GSGNY), national (Girl Scouts USA – GSUSA) and international (World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts – WAGGGS). GSGNY, GSUSA and WAGGGS each collaborate with, support and promote organizations and individuals that advocate for abortion rights for all women, including adolescent girls. Far from being an autonomous entity, GSGNY is inextricably intertwined with and supports GSUSA and WAGGGS. Girls of GSGNY are counted in GSUSA1 and WAGGGS2 membership totals. Each individual girl’s membership triggers financial contributions to GSUSA3 and WAGGGS4. All girls who purchase uniforms, curriculum books and other Girl Scout materials provide additional funding to GSUSA through licensing fees attached to all trademarked products. Girls also fund GSGNY and GSUSA activities with money raised through Girl Scout cookies sales. While the Girl Scouts claim that all cookie revenues stay within the local council, it is important to note that GSUSA receives millions of dollars every year from the licensing fees that are part of the cookie production costs5. GSUSA is the largest member organization6 of WAGGGS, making up a third2 of its 10 million members worldwide and paying approximately 1.5 million dollars annually to WAGGGS based on the number of registered GSUSA members4. Through its resources7, non-formal education programs8 and participation in international seminars, events and United Nations conferences9, WAGGGS promotes, specifically on behalf of its 10 million members10, youth sexual and reproductive/abortion rights11.
