1. Discuss your beliefs about marriage, cohabitation, sex, sexual orientation, and friendship. (Minimum of 2 paragraphs) (10 Points) 2. Discuss - Intimate relationships were easier for your grandparents than they are for you. Brainstorm about this statement with regard to cultural standards, expectations, choices, education, technology, contraception, women's movement, politics, sexually transmitted diseases.

3. Many research studies on relationships include college students as participants; however, the number of U. S. citizens who complete a college degree is small (about 1/3 by recent estimates). How might the characteristics of those people who never attend college differ from those who attend college or complete a degree. Could these differences have an impact on the conclusions made about the nature of relationships (ex. dating, gender roles, sexuality, or couples therapy). (2 paragraphs) (10 points)

1. I believe that we should be able to marry who ever we wan't with out being judged or fearful, And I also believe we should never rush into something so big. I think that Cohabitation is nothing wrong, if someone decides to do this it is their decisions. I feel like people should be able to explore life together before making any big decisions. I feel Like if you decide to have a sexual relationship you should be trusting in your partner and know significant things about them. I Think people should identify how ever they wan't, there is nothing wrong with loving as you want.

2. I think intimate relationships were easier for my grandparents because people were a little more different than they are now in today's generation, I feel like in different cultures it is easier because of things like arranged marriages. In today's society we might feel pressured into compromising our beliefs like staying sexually abstinent until marriage because we can feel as though we are missing out, or we need to do what others are doing. We can also feel pressured when someone in a relationship has already chosen to have a sexual relationship. But on the other hand we can feel pressured not to have sexual relationships for things like religion, family influence, friendships, and others.

Hope this helps, You can add whatever you feel like adding or change whatever you want. Good luck!
