Assignment 2: A Case Study Of Jacoby

672 Words3 Pages

Perceived susceptibility: Jacoby thinks that because he has sex with strangers that are “clean cut professionals” and are “generally healthy”, he will not contract an STD. Due to the fact that he often has sex two nights per week and with both genders, makes him more vulnerable than others. Again, he brings up the point that condoms are both awkward and ruins the mood of sex, just gives him another excuse to not use them. He assumes that he will not contract any STD or HIV because he has not gotten anything yet. Perceived benefits: He definitely believes his sister when she recommends him to use a condom as well as going further and putting them into his wallet, but he just cannot get himself to use them. Jacoby knows his sister cares and looks

    When the story switches settings back to the Dominican Republic we see a side of the Garcia’s culture that isn’t as visible in the United States. “... she has no contraception… and Manuel won’t wear rubber… ‘He thinks it might cause impotence’” (123). It is obvious that contraceptives like condoms do not cause a man to become steryl. Americans know this because it is part of their basic education to know what safe sex is.

  • Effects Of The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment Of 1932

    559 Words  | 3 Pages

    In this experiment, researchers took advantage of the lack of medical knowledge that existed within the public. In particular, the Public Health Service conducted the experiment on 600 African American men in order to record the natural history of syphilis. Although the researchers told the men that they were being treated for “bad blood”, which is a term encompassing several illnesses including syphilis, fatigue, and anemia, they did not receive the proper treatment needed to cure their ailments. Men were inclined to participate in the experiment because they received free meals, free medical exams, and burial insurance in turn. However, despite the men consenting to the experiment, there is no proof that verifies that the men were properly informed about the study and its purpose.

    I believe an unethical issue arises when they convince the men to join the study because they are so uneducated. Miss Evers tried to use terms that the men could follow with ease. In the time period in which the movie takes place, it was very common for African American males to drop out of school in order to support and provide for their family. Miss Evers offered the minimal amount of information as possible in order to convince the men to join the study. She would say the men had “bad blood” instead of saying exactly what syphilis was.
