The reproductive rights are built on the recognition that couples and individuals have the right to their own number, timing and spacing of their children. The reproductive rights also acknowledge that they have the right to information concerning their reproductive health and to be provided with the best standards of reproductive health services.

Book Review: Do Muslim Women Need Saving?, Harvard University Press, 2013 by Lila Abu-Lughod Lila Abu-Lughod, in her book, Do Muslim Women Need Saving?, boldly challenges the report propagated by the media and human rights groups  about the need of Muslim women to be rescued, the frequent message of honor murders, sensational abuse, and disfigurement that both claims have resulted to a rise to a firm consensus in the West. Lila Abu-Lughod is an anthropologist who, in the last thirty years, has been narrating about the Arab women. The author explores the current difficulties of Muslim women while questioning whether generalities on Islamic culture can describe the adversities such women face and asks what motivates specific institutions and individuals to promote their rights In the recent years, Lila Abu-Lughod has been struggling to reconcile the general image of women mistreated by the Islam with samples of complex women she has come across through her study in several societies in Muslim world. Authoritarianism and poverty are common conditions in the Islamic world and made out of world interconnections that finger out…

Women Roles Introduction             The roles of women in society today have had a tremendous change and are making a great impact in the society. Originally, women’s contribution to society was only limited to taking care of their houses and their households while the men took control of everything else. Women have advanced in many aspects subsequently gaining power in political and professional arenas. Roles have interestingly changed from one generation to the other.

Response on Still Doing It: The Intimate Lives of Women Over 65 The video clips show some women aged 65 and above expressing their views about sexual feelings as far as their age is concerned as well as the societal stereotypes pertaining to their age bracket. For most of the people, presumably below the age bracket, including myself, tend to think that once an individual hits 65 and above, their bodies no longer feel any urge for sex. I have been able to learn from the video that the activity of the human body system, especially on matters about sex carries on as long as they live. However, when we are young, our beliefs are made to believe that as we age, our bodies become sexually less active. Now that the case is as presented by the victims falling within the age bracket, then I agree that the society should abandon lots of stereotypes and hold a debate on the matter. I know it may seem weird finding older people in an intimate relationship, especially with partners way too younger…

women as more knowledgeable than their male counterparts A large percentage of college kids plan to have kids in the future. But, studies carried out in many parts have shown that most of them have incomplete or no knowledge about fertility. In most of these studies, however, women seemed to be more knowledgeable than their male counterparts. A Survey in Melbourne by the Victorian Assisted Reproductive Treatment following 1200 students showed this gap in knowledge. Most of those interviewed wanted children, but most couldn’t tell when fertility starts to wane both in men and women. So, most students wanted to first concentrate on education, work, travel, stable relationships, and other issues before starting a family. Typically, women’s fertility begins waning at 30-34 and speeds up after 35 years. Men, on the other hand, slow down between 40-45 years. The oldest man to sire was 96 years old, but infinite sperm production is not the rule of thumb. Most college-aged people also have an incomplete understanding of the causes of fertility and its treatment. They especially undermine the risks posed by…
