Study Notes
Male Reproductive System
- The vas deferens is a coiled duct where sperm cells are stored after production.
- Pregnancy duration is approximately 260 days, starting from fertilization to birth.
- Semen is produced by the prostate gland and seminal vesicles, which nourish sperm cells.
- Each ejaculation contains around 300 to 500 million sperm cells.
- Sperm cells can survive up to 48 hours within the uterus.
Sexual Response Cycle
- The sexual response cycle includes four phases: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution.
- The excitement phase marks the beginning of sexual arousal, with physiological changes like increased pulse and blood pressure.
- The plateau phase involves further physical changes, such as heightened sensitivity in sexual organs and increased heart rate.
- The orgasm phase involves muscle contractions and ejaculation in men, and potential multiple orgasms in women.
- The resolution phase is where the body returns to its normal state post-orgasm.
Sexual Arousal
- Sexual arousal is complex and can be triggered by stimulating erogenous zones, such as the genitals, mouth, and breasts.
- Masturbation is a common form of sexual stimulation that is less influenced by the presence of a partner.
- Sexual fantasies are significant to arousal; men typically report more fantasies and a higher frequency of sexual desire compared to women.
Components of Love
- Robert Sternberg's theory identifies three components of love: intimacy, passion, and commitment.
- Intimacy encompasses feelings of closeness and connection.
- Passion includes romantic attraction and physical desire.
- Commitment involves the decision to love and maintain that love, forming different types of romantic love based on these components.
Material Self and Identity
- The material self represents identity through possessions, including body and clothing, which are influenced by peer groups, especially among adolescents.
- Clothing choices symbolize social status and are seen as important identifiers.
- Material possessions such as homes, cars, and pets are extensions of self-identity, reflecting social status and personal achievement.
Consumer Culture
- Consumer culture emphasizes the importance of material possessions in defining identity and social status.
- It involves a social arrangement reliant on the consumption of products, mediated through markets.
- Russell Belk's work highlights that material possessions correlate with hard work and success, influencing how success is measured.
- A consumerist society focuses on extensive spending and energy on acquiring more possessions, which drives individuals to seek higher achievements.
