DISCUSSION 4: SEX, DRUGS, ALCOHOL, ENVIRONMENT, IMMIGRANTS, EATING DISORDERS AND POVERTY

The group of 2nd A has worked on this topic. Here you find some of the ideas that have come out in class. Please, write a comment with your opinion. Remember that we are working for and against points of view, so give arguments supporting one of the sides.

- It is difficult to relate these topics among them, but they were our
worries.
- Nowadays poverty is growing up. Due to famine in third world. Since in
their countries they haven’t got anything, they have to migrate to our
country.
- In the first world, we have another kind of problems: drugs and alcohol.
This leads to sex without protection.
- People don’t worry too much about environment since they only think about
partying and having fun.
- The consumption of drugs have raised among young people. Every day we can
achieve it more and more easily.
- Poverty sometimes leads to drugs and alcohol business. And the other way
round. That would lead to stealing as well.
- Drugs can be sometimes related to eating disorders. There are drugs that
make you eat a lot or nothing. Depression
- People are not very conscious. They think they control what they take, and
then they become dependant.
- They are highly addictive and people don’t realise till it is too late.
- Drugs affect differently to people. They change personality, they become
violent; others take it to become more outgoing.
- Drugs and alcohol make people to split up from their family.
- People start younger to have relationships. You have a lot of information,
but in the moment, you don’t think about it. You sometimes do not know who
you are having sex with. There are more undesired pregnancies, venereal
diseases and aids.
- When you are under age, it is very difficult to keep your life.
- It is not bad if they come, they work in the jobs we don’t want to, but they
have a lot of help from the government that we don’t have. They have to
respect our culture.
- They will have to learn our language.

In our opinion, it is fun to go out partying but is dangerous due to the amount of drugs and alcohol that we can find.
Some people who exploit young people to deceive us,sell us drugs and we have just hooking.


let it be clear, we do not take anything!!

I think the governments of rich countries should help ecomonically to countries from third world to relieve all problems of society, as the sex, drugs, alcohol, environment, inmigration and others.

Hello, my name's Alberto Ximénez, but this comment I do with Charles LLedó and Javíer Martinez!.
In our opinion, we think that the drugs are very good for fun, but are very bad for the health, although Cuaresma(truckdriver) smokes.
The alcohol is healthy, for example, one cup of wine is very good.
Javier said that the best alcohol drinks are the "transparent drinks" (vodka, ginebra, and so on).
The sex, is essencial to live, and Charles Lledó said that he can't live without sex, and he support to practise sex 4 times a week. He said that he don't like smoke a cigarette after practise the sex.
Alberto said that the drugs are bad, but the alcohol with measure is good and healthy. Althought, Alberto drink without measures =D!


PS: Long life to drugs, alcohol and the bad girls!!!

Hi! I think that matters of drugs, environment, immigrants, poverty... is very important and we should speak more about it.
The differences between the 1er world and 3er world are very notable.
Althought the people just think in himselves and while they live well, never they to worry about it.
On the other hand, the matter of the drugs and the alcohol easier to get a solution, but I think that the goverment is not interest in giving it.

Hi we think there are a lot of diferencies in the among the first world and the third world.

Probably, the problems in the first wold there are more selfish and superficial problems. They can to choose what kind of life they want. But in the third world the people can't to choose their lifestyle or filosophy of life.

I think that the major problem of our country they are the drugs.
Nowadays they are consumed in great quantity, and this are a great problem.
The drug can’t be eliminated because of it is better to legalize it to have it more controlled.

it's true that the drugs and alcohol make people to split up from their family.
we think that the drugs and alcohol change the personality and do that you are bad with the family. If you consum drugs you become independent from people. You didn't realise that you have a problem until you are alone because the family and the friends don't likes that you consum drugs and drink alcohol because it's bad for you.

There a problem with sex, drugs and alcohol.Drugs can you help sometimes when you have problems with your health.Then you can go to the Chemist's and buy Marihuana for a better life.But some hard drugs are very bad and makes depression and death.
The second topic is alcohol.It can be also very healthy when you drink not much.But when you are really drunken you can really make a lot of shit.When you pay attention for drinkin trhen nothing can happen.

The youth of today are more concerned to have fun, drink and practice unprotected sex due to spend this much money on drugs, rather than spending on sexual protection. Distancing to their families and end up being socially excluded. Consequences are to diseases, unwanted pregnancies and because of the drug also street violence.

Well, I think drugs need not be bad if consumed responsibly, but I also think that they are a tool to disable the youth, which historically has had much protagonism in social movements, and these movements are those that can cause serious problems to the System. In 60s, the CIA was distributing LSD among the hippy movement to end it, and in that are my opinions based.

About Immigration, I just think it's our fault for allowing our governments to exploit their countries of origin.

Sex... I haven't much thinks to say about sex. It's a human need.

Eating disorders are, in my opinion, an injustice for the 3rd world and a stupid fashion in 1st.

Poverty is a grave injustice, there is nothing else to add.
