What Turns Us On? Senses, Attraction and Sex Touch Smell Visual Hearing Gender and Sexuality
Touch It is the dominant "sexual sense” – Primary erogenous zones : areas of the body that contain dense concentrations of nerve endings. • Includes genitals, buttocks, anus, nipples, breasts, inner thighs, armpits, navel, neck, ear lobes, mouth. Gender and Sexuality
Touch – Secondary erogenous zones : areas of the body that have become erotically sensitive through learning and experience. • Virtually any other region of the body--depends on personal erotic experiences. Gender and Sexuality
Vision usually next important sense in arousal. – Early research supported the idea that males are more aroused by visual stimuli than females – When asked via self-reporting, women less likely to report being aroused by visual erotica – When arousal is measured using physiological recording devices, women and men are equally aroused by viewing pornography Gender and Sexuality
Smell highly influenced by a person’s sexual history and social conditioning. – Genital secretions - used as a ‘perfume’ by some women in Europe. – U.S.: near obsession w/masking any natural body odor – Even so, many report being aroused by the smell of their partner, or by people to whom they are attracted. – Pheromones: odors produced by the body that relate to reproductive functions (e.g. fertility). Gender and Sexuality
Hearing : highly variable. – Some people find words, erotic conversation, moans, etc. to be very arousing – Others prefer more silent sex. • Different people receive different cultural messages about whether it is “okay” to talk or make noise during sex. Gender and Sexuality
GAPANG: THE PRACTICE OF "SLEEP-CRAWLING" IN A TAGALOG COMMUNITY CAROLYN CRISPINO ISRAEL
Gapang it literally means “to crawl” refers to refers to a man's act of surreptitiously stealing into the bedside of a woman at night with the intention of “forcing" her into sexual relations
Gapang In the case of this Laguna barrio studied, which this paper will refer to fictitiously as Barrio Tabing - tubig , there are various motives and justifications given for this sex activity.
Some reasons of this sexual activity When the man fails to win the favor of the women being courted. An attempt of a man to force his sweetheart into immediate marriage. Use as an alibi to cover up for certain illegitimate heterosexual.
Gapang Once gapang is used as an alibi it stopped to be a form of rape. Infact , the sexual adventure may be planned out by the parties involved.
Mang C. who was beaten up by his neighbor, Mang B., the previous night. From what I've gathered in the conversation, what happened was that Mang B. arrived home from his fishing work at about four o'clock in the morning. While trying to tidy up his fishing gadgets, he heard whisperings in the house. He called to his wife who suddenly started shouting for help. Mang B. immediately run upstairs with a banca paddle and saw a figure trying to escape through the window. He gave chase and succeeded in hitting the escapee before the latter could jump to the ground and! lose himself in the dark. Mang B. turned to his wife who was still crying. He was told that the man broke into the house and threatened to kill her should she refuse the man's "advances." At this instance, one of the bystanders who was also listening to the conversation gave a malicious laughter and commented: " naka-isa na naman ang nobyo ni M.'' (M. is Mang B.'s wife.)
Gapang The "sleep-crawler" who fails and gets brutally beaten up by the woman's kinsmen is usually ridiculed by the males. He is branded as mahina . Therefore, it appears to be a behavioral mechanism by which a man who was publicly shamed by a woman's refusal to accept his love can prove and assert his masculinity .
SOME SOCIAL IMPLICATIONS Manifestly function mechanism for effecting immediate marriage with the desired party Latently function to maintain the image of the offender in the community which was threatened by his being a rejected suitor It likewise reinforces the man's acceptance into his peer group or barkada
For married couple, the use of gapang as an alibi apparently prevents the "shameful" discovery of the illicit relationship and in a way. Not only are the adulterers saved from public shame through the alibi of gapang , but their respective families as well.

Birth Control U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,Office on Women’sHealth
What is birth control? Involves one or more actions, devices, sexual practices or medications followed to intentionally prevent or reduce the likelihood of pregnancy or childbirth. Nordqvist (2009)
Early History: Centuries ago, Chinese women drank lead and mercury to control fertility, which often resulted in sterility or death. It was also believed that a woman could avoid pregnancy by walking three times around the spot where a pregnant wolf had urinated. Skuy (1995)
In England women drank a potion of dried beaver testicles brewed in a strong alcohol solution. As recently as the 1990s, teens in Australia have used candy bar wrappers as condoms. Skuy (1995)
Choosing Birth Control When considering which birth control method is best for you, think about: Where do I need to go to get the method? How convenient is the method to use? Is my partner involved with this method? What is the cost of this method?
Types of Birth Control U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,Office on Women’sHealth
Classification of Birth Control Natural Method Hormonal Method Barrier Method Implantable Method Permanent Method Abstinence Lactation Amenorrhea Method
Withdrawal Method
Hormonal Methods of Birth Control
Pill What is it? It's an oral contraceptive containing estrogen and progestin. Estrogen stops egg production; progestin keeps sperm from reaching an egg. Effectiveness: 91-99 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2013) Pros: No hassle before sex. The hormones can cause lighter periods and provide protection against acne, certain cancers, pelvic inflammatory disease, and ovarian cysts. Cons: Side effects might include nausea, vomiting, and spotting. Combining estrogen and progestin slightly increases the chance of some rare but serious problems such as blood clots, heart attack, or stroke.
Patch What is it? It's a thin patch that sticks to the skin and releases the hormones estrogen and progestin into the body. Estrogen stops egg production; the progestin thickens a women's cervical mucus and keeps sperm from reaching an egg. Effectiveness: 91-99 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2012) Pros: You put a new patch on the skin only once a month. For potential positive side effects of estrogen and progestin, see the section on hormonal IUDs. Cons: For potential negative side effects of estrogen and progestin, see the section on hormonal IUDs.
Shot What is it? A single shot in the arm releases the hormone progestin, which thickens cervical mucus and thins the endometrium . It may also prevent ovulation, keeping sperm from joining with an egg. Effectiveness: 94-99 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2013) Pros: Administered by a doctor once every three months. Progestin can reduce menstrual bleeding and cramping and doesn't have many of the negative side effects of estrogen. Cons: Possible progestin side effects include irregular periods, sore breasts, headache, nausea, and more. Most side effects go away within three months. Rarer side effects include weight gain and changes in sex drive, among others.
Ring What is it? It's a small plastic ring inserted into the vagina once a month and left there for three weeks. It's taken out for the fourth week of the month. The ring releases estrogen and progestin into the body. Estrogen stops egg production; the progestin thickens a women's cervical mucus and keeps sperm from reaching an egg. Effectiveness: 91-99 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2012) Pros: Only two things to remember: Put the ring in on first day of month: take it out three weeks later. For positive side effects of estrogen and progestin, see the section on hormonal IUDs. Cons: For potential negative side effects of estrogen and progestin, see the section on hormonal IUDs.
Barrier Methods
Male condom What is it? It's a thin latex sheath worn on the penis during intercourse, in order to collect semen and prevent sperm from entering the vagina. Condoms come in lots of shapes and sizes. Effectiveness: 82-98 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2012) Pros: Condoms are inexpensive and accessible and can be used in conjunction with other forms of birth control. Condoms also significantly reduce your risk for sexually transmitted infections. Cons: About 3 million people in the U.S. are allergic to latex(American Latex Allergy Association, 2013) and need to use non-latex condoms. Condoms can reduce sensitization; some couples feel that they can have a negative effect on the quality of their sex life.
Female Condom What is it? It's a plastic pouch with flexible plastic rings at each end. Before sex, it's inserted into the vagina; the ring at the closed end holds the pouch in the vagina, and the ring at the open end stays outside the vaginal opening during sex. Effectiveness: 79-95 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2012) Pros: Female condoms cause no hormonal changes and decrease risk for sexually transmitted infections. Cons: Some couples feel that using a female condom has a negative effect on the quality of their sex life; it can be noisy and reduce feeling during intercourse. It can cause irritation.
Sponge What is it? Made of soft foam, the sponge is round and usually two inches in diameter. Prior to intercourse, it is inserted into the vagina. It covers the cervix and blocks sperm. Effectiveness: 88-91 percent for those who have not given birth, 76-80 percent for those who have (Planned Parenthood, 2012) Pros: It does not require a prescription and lasts up to 30 hours, during which you can have sex as much as you like without removing the sponge. It has no effect on your hormones and is unobtrusive during sex. Cons: Some may find it tricky to insert or remove. Some couples find it makes intercourse too wet or too dry.
Diaphragm What is it? It's a dome-shaped cup with a flexible ring made of latex that is inserted into the vagina to cover the cervix. It blocks the opening to the uterus and prevents sperm from joining with an egg. Effectiveness: 88-94 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2012) Pros: It's immediately effective and has no effect on your hormones. It can also be inserted hours ahead of time, so you don't have to worry about dealing with it just before sex. Most people say they don't feel it during sex. Cons: It requires a prescription and can't be used during your period. In some rare cases, it can cause urinary tract infections or allergy-related vaginal irritation.
Implantable device
Intrauterine Device What is it? The IUD is a small, T-shaped device made of flexible plastic that releases a small amount of progestin on a regular schedule. Inserted by a doctor, the IUD works by preventing sperm from joining with an egg. The progestin thickens a women's cervical mucus and keeps sperm from reaching an egg. Effectiveness: More than 99 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2013) Pros: It lasts five years, and is effective and completely undetectable during sex with no hassle before or after. Progestin may reduce cramps and make your period lighter. Cons: After insertion, you may have a few days of mild cramping or a backache and, for the first three to six months, spotting between periods and/or irregular periods.
Implant What is it? It's a small piece of flexible plastic implanted under the skin of the upper arm. The implant releases progestin into the body, which keeps sperm from joining with an egg. Insertion takes a few minutes, and the implant lasts for up to three years. Effectiveness: More than 99 percent effective (Planned Parenthood, 2003) Pros: It's long-lasting and effective. It's low profile and causes no hassle before, during, or after sex. Cons: You have to go through minor surgery. Irregular bleeding during the first six to 12 months is common.
