A. Male
 Pornography - Constant use may develop to addiction, which, if left unchecked, can lead to sexual
harassment since it gives the individual the impression that doing inappropriate things to the opposite
gender is OK because of the graphic information he is so used to seeing on the internet.
 Masturbation - Masturbating on a regular basis can cause weakness, exhaustion, and early ejaculation,
as well as limit your sexual activities with your spouse. Missing out on frequent orgasms, on the other
hand, raises stress levels and can contribute to mental health difficulties, dissatisfaction, and general
unhappiness.

is STD, and issues may occur as a result of such filthy behavior.
B. Female

Compulsive masturbation is incredibly addicting and can become uncontrollable at times. i.Most
masturbation is done by men, although women do it as well. However, too much masturbation may be
detrimental, as physicians warn that it can lead to prostate cancer or other disorders related to that habit.
 Getting drunk alone with gentelmens - The key difficulty is control, which might be the male's or yours
judgment, but drinking too much alcohol with the opposite gender is as dangerous as strolling down the
street blindfolded.
 Fondling or caressing other people's genitals, breasts, or bottoms without their consent - one issue with
females is that they have the attitude of stroking other females private parts as a lighthearted gesture of
friendship, but if left unchecked, this might escalate to sexual harassment in the future.

2. Mind map
Lesson 8

Contemplate: How does your being a female or a male influence your family and peers expectation from
you?

An individual has been expected to act sexually since the beginning of time. A guy should be
powerful, whereas a female should be soft. A man's work consists of carpentry, weightlifting, jobs, and
supporting the family, whereas a woman's labor consists of cooking, home tasks, and child care.
Gender roles have been determined by the world for millennia. The times, however, are changing.
We're in the process of abandoning established gender roles. Being a homemaker is no longer the exclusive
role for women. The goal now is to be a powerful shaker and mover. "I can bring home the bacon and cook
it up in a skillet because I'm a woman!" as the old ad used to say. "We're supposed to be able to accomplish
it all with an endless supply of energy."

Communicate - Think about the following and share your thoughts about them with a classmate when you
are comfortable to talk too.

My strengths - Every one of us has a strength that we believe will serve as our armor against the hardships
that life will throw at us. FAITH is the true source of my strength. That was something intangible. But it is
my inner strength that serves as my armor and shield when I face various challenges in life. My family and
dearest friends are also sources of motivation for me, since they support me in all of my life's decisions and
endeavors.
Areas where I can improve - I believe there are many aspects of my life that might be better, but I believe it
all boils down to my lack of motivation and lack of precise objectives. This would fall under the category of
areas in which I need to improve.
My aspirational in life - My greatest ambition is to care for my wife and daughter, who offer meaning and
purpose to my whole existence. They are the reason I go above and beyond my means to provide for them.
How I see my self - I regard myself as a sponge, someone who can receive what is lacking and let go when it
is no longer necessary. To live in this generation, you must learn to adapt to your circumstances, and a
sponge is the finest example you can choose.

Contemplate - how am I following psychosocial aspects of my life.

Awareness of self and others Intimacy and relationship

It gives us more self-assurance, allowing us to speak
more clearly and intently. It allows us to observe
things from many perspectives. It frees us from our
prejudices and preconceptions. It promotes the
formation of stronger relationships.
Self-awareness is just a deep understanding of one's
own personality. This includes both your good and
poor qualities, as well as your ideas, feelings, and
inspiration. It will be easier for you to comprehend
people if you are self-aware.
Learning and socialization
What is the impact of socialization on learning?
They instill in us not just self-care, but also our
initial set of values, norms, and beliefs. Through our
contacts with teachers, staff, and other students,
schools serve as socialization agents, teaching us
social skills as well as academic information and life
skills. What is the relationship between socialization
and education? The world's educational system is in
shambles. The connection between socialization and
education is both a theoretical and practical concern.
By revealing your wishes, feelings, goals,
aspirations, and secrets, you get closer to one another
and more vulnerable to one another. As a
consequence, chemistry develops between the two of
them. Emotional closeness in a relationship helps to
deepen the bond. In general, intimacy means getting
to know someone and feeling known by them. It is
something that all people require, and just because
guys have a harder time communicating does not
mean they do not require or desire it.
Purpose and meaning
Our purpose and meaning may change, but I'd like to
believe I'm here for a reason, and that reason is to
thrive on the gifts and entrustments that God has
given and committed to me to properly manage and
give back when I can. to inspire and provide
significance to the lives of others.
The school is the principal socializing institution.
Education has two separate functions: social
reproduction and development.
