Sexual Ethics, Spring 2017
I plan to add a new subsection to the Wikipedia article "Prison Sexuality" that involves how media portrays prison rape to the public. I also would like to acknowledge how prison rape was just merely a problem but nowadays more of a civil rights and moral issue. Historical and contemporary eras contain two different viewpoints on the issue of prison rape.
In news media
The printed news media in the historical era emphasized the issue of prison rape by establishing a social problem and blaming the U.S. correction system. According to major newspapers, the U.S. correction system not only involved the correctional personnel but the inmates who engaged in homosexuality.[3] Later in the contemporary era, print news media shifted the United States' focus on prison rape from a framed-problem perspective to a political rights and civil rights issue within the U.S. correction system. [3]
The issue of prison rape gained national attention in the press thus creating an open door for new perspectives on how to understand and eliminate the issue. News media contributed to the U.S. government's initiative to intervene in the matter.[3]
Sexual Ethics Article Topic (for peer review): Moral Courage
In the ethic stub Moral courage, I plan to add multiple new sections to clarify this ethical concept more. This article specifically lacks context and depth to its provided definition. The article starts off with a strong lead however it needs more examples to put the topic into context such as literacy and media examples, the society's perspective, and real world scenarios. In order to clarify moral courage, I am planning to incorporate sections involving sexual ethics such as gender roles/identities, rape culture, consent, and etc. This route may be too specific but this is why I plan to give the previously mentioned examples to give moral courage a well-rounded context so readers can see how this ethical topic works. My rough draft down below consists of scholarly article where parents may experience moral courage within their parenting practices and likewise with the children who may experience moral courage when conflicting with their own gender roles/identities. This is an example of one of the many ways the article can gain depth and context. This article leaves room for great improvement.

Rough Draft - New Section for Moral Courage: Parenting approach
Parenting with the incorporation of moral courage can have an effect on the gender roles and self- expression of young adolescents. For example, young girls who conform to society's interpretation of women being passive.[4] Both the parents and children engage in moral courage from different standpoints. The development of moral courage within parenting looks at not only on the parent's passed down moral values but the children's autonomy on how to perceive and practice their moral values.[4] Those who incorporate the practice of their morals values into their everyday lives engage in moral courage to protect those values as well.[5] Therefore, this parenting approach with practice of moral courage demonstrates a relationship between how parents morally raise their children and how the children choose to act based on their learned moral values.
Rough Draft - New Section for Moral Courage: In the workplace
In a workplace, LGBT employees can experience behaviors or actions of discriminating nature as well as violent hate crimes. As sexual and gender identity minorities, the LGBT employees express a need for straight or heterosexual allies in the workplace to go to as a resource. A research study was performed using qualitative research methods to analyze the process of how and individuals become LGBT allies.[6] The study mentions how human resources development play a role in this matter. Human resources development professionals have the responsibility and the power to incorporate what LGBT employees desire in a workplace: inclusion, safety, and equal treatment with heterosexual employees.[6] Moral courage distinguishes the abilities of a heterosexual LGBT ally and a human resources development professional. While heterosexual LGBT allies, acting on their moral values provide support and stand up for their LGBT colleagues, human resource development professionals and their positions in the workplace translates their values into action which translates into movement for change regarding LGBT discrimination.[6]
