Sex Education in Schools

Hello,

This a great overview of {lack of effective} Sex Ed in Canada and US. However, I urge you to provide an intersectional analysis on this topic. I also think you should narrow down your topic and selection only one country and even better idea, would be to choose a particular province/state. For example, if you choose the U.S. you can look at states like Texas and there sex ed curriculum and see if students in Texas are more or less disadvantaged than students in other states in terms of # of teen pregnancies or abortions or something. I would really recommend this because as of right now, your wiki does not provide a critical analysis on the topic, it just provides an overview of the information available about Sex Ed. in schools.

-Hope this helps!

Self Induced Abortion in the United States

Hello,

This is a great topic, it is fairly detailed in terms of outline the theme of your wiki, however, I would strongly suggest that you provide a critical intersectional analysis on your topic. For example, you can say that poor, racialized women still perform self-induced because they are socially (i.e. stigma), economically (i.e. traveling long distances, paying for accommodations) and politically (lack of safe access to abortion services, mandatory (usually, unnecessary) wait times, or other such irrelevant state enforced rule) oppressed. All these dimensions play a huge rule in the oppression of poor, racialized women. I would recommend watching this youtube video, it will give you a more clear, but grim idea of how bad access to abortion is in the US.

GRSJ224/femalesterilization

hello,

I know this is just a rough draft for your wiki but I would strongly suggest you incorporate an intersectional analysis of female sterilization. In particular, you mentioned the question, why more tubal litigations than vasectomy. If you maybe dig into this a little bit more, maybe the reasons you find for this trend can provide a basis for an intersectional analysis. Also, I would suggest you choose a particular location to focus on. You mentioned a study in Peshawar, India, maybe you can see what the trend is like there for tubal litigation vs vasectomy. I wasn't sure if this trend was prevalent in developed worlds or developing worlds. Maybe that is a more focused topic.

An alternate idea would be to write about how tubal litigation can lead to women having/feeling privileged {rather than opressed} because of the socio-political dimensions allow women the right to birth control.

Hope this helps!! Overall, a great topic!

-Best, Rini
