Can any access science.jrank.org/pages/8077/Sexuality.html - my modem won't let me, although a similar page demands payment (http://www.mywire.com/pubs/NewDictionaryOfHistoryOfIdeas/2005/10/25/1130757?&pbl=222)

It looks like it is an essay by Jeffery Weeks and includes the phrases "When we think of sexuality, we think of many different things. We think of reproduction, we think of pleasure, we think of love, we think of potential diseases,so finally the concept of sexuality has many multiplicity of meanings."


Googling so far has reconstructed:

"When we think of sexuality, we think of many different things. We think of reproduction and the different bodies and reproductive capacities of men and women. We think of pleasure, the pleasures of the body, but also the pains, mental and physical, that can wrack the body. We think of love, and the joys of human human involvement, but we might also remember the fear and hate that sexuality can evoke — through discrimination, prejudice, abuse, violence, rape. We think of potential diseases, of which HIV/AIDS has become the most potent symbol, and the possibility of death, which has always dogged sexual activity"

Not quite plagiarism,but I want to find that "multiplicity" [sic?]

Then you get the essay which is stuffed to the gills with quotations - indeed you plan to made a note of some of them yourself for future reference (but probably won't get round to it). The referencing system is a little to pot, but still, there's the festure in that direction.

Alas, the essay is 2,500 words, but only about 150 of them are by the student. The rest is quotation. Each paragraph is a quotation, with an occasional comment by the student. And then a paragraph at the end claiming to have prven something when in fact I've just been shown the evidence at random.

A fail, I fear. A hardworking student, but did the wrong job. *Sigh*
