Incongruities and Drug Policy

What are the incongruities between facts and policies? What are the effects of these incongruities on current drug abuse policies? Why is it difficult to measure the result of policy changes?

The Discussion for this week will focus on gender socialization and inequalities related to sexual orientation. Please respond to the following statements/questions:

• After reading the chapter, provide an explanation of how gender socialization impacts society. In your opinion, does family or the media have more of an impact on how an individual is socialized with regard to gender?

• What impact, if any, does homophobia have on individuals and society?

• What is one thing a human services professional can do to improve gender inequality, and what is one thing that they can do to decrease homophobia? Be specific.
