“Sexual arousal is contingent upon the way your brain perceives a given sexual stimulus. It does not matter whether the most sensitive parts of your body are being touched, or how little clothing the person in front of you is wearing, because if your brain does not interpret that stimulus as arousing, you are unlikely to have a sexual response,” (Lehmiller, 2017).

In 300 to 400 words (in meaningful, well organized paragraphs) defend your belief that there is an important truth or lesson in the quote “Sexual arousal is contingent upon the way your brain perceives a given sexual stimulus.
It does not matter whether the most sensitive parts of your body are being touched, or how little clothing the person in front of you is wearing, because if your brain does not interpret that stimulus as arousing, you are unlikely to have a sexual response,” (Lehmiller, 2017).
Essentially, your job is to clarify what the lesson to be learned is and to then strongly (and thoughtfully) defend why you think the lesson is vital.
To help you think about your topic and to write a well-organized essay, consider (and answer) these questions:
• What truth or lesson is being communicated by this quote?
• Why is this truth or lesson so important?
• How do your, or other’s, experiences and observations relate to and support this truth or lesson?
• In what ways does this lesson make logical sense to you?
• In what ways does this lesson make emotional sense to you?
• How might this lesson be relevant to your, or others’, life and career?
• Why do some fail to live as if this truth or lesson were important?
• Why might some suggest this truth or lesson is not important?
• How would you defend the truth of this lesson from those who disagree and believe the lesson is not important?
• What can we do (at an individual, community, or society) to make this truth or lesson better recognized or practiced?
In the writing of your essay, present your answer to these questions in a sequence of well-developed paragraphs (not bullet points).
You are encouraged to be creative in your reflections. Your reflections may include, when pertinent, links to media, pictures, or other supporting resources.
Also Write a Discussion Question that Would Prompt Further Dialog on the Topic. End your reflection essay with a line space and then post a single, relevant, provocative, open-ended question that you believe would prompt further debate and reflection by readers on the topic addressed in your essay.
