Housing
For Homosexual Handicapped

How
Much Have Public Attitudes Really Shifted?
[ send
me this paper ]
A 14 page paper evaluating the mechanisms underlying
shifting public attitudes toward sexuality, globalization,
drug and alcohol use, and marriage. Too often, we allow
our attitudes to be shaped by movies, news items and bored
celebrities who have too little of consequence to do with
their time and are too shallow to seek out worthy pursuits
from which we could all benefit. Hollywood and journalists
often exploit marginal aspects of society, making
aberrations appear more common than they truly are. The
visibility, however, works to diminish the shock value of
the real-life occurrences and contributes to their
becoming more common. Bibliography lists approximately 10
sources.
