1. End of semester reflection- Of the topics and information that we have covered this semester in the course, what has been the most impactful or interesting?

The most impactful and interesting subject that I've learned about would be bulimia nervosa. My friend who I'm getting to know fairly well told me last week that he was bulimic. I thought the majority of people who were bulimic were girls and I never thought I would meet a male that was one. It honestly shocked me to hear about his current state. He told me that it was hereditary and I told him I learned about the subject in class and no where in the book did it say bulimia nervosa was hereditary.  When reading over the material, it explained a lot more to me about his personality as well.

Women can reduce the risk of assult by viewing the signs of a predator. Usually when going out on a date or seeing people at bars or clubs the signs that should be watch out for is men who have dominating personalities and submissive. The text shows that women need to be aware of a controlling date. During a date there should be no confusion with leading a person on because an offender may take rubbing or touching the wrong way.
