ANALYSIS.
PROCESSING QUESTIONS.
1. While doing the activity, what were the good/ bad things you have remembered while
you were growing up?
 While doing the activity, I remembered I used to be bullied for having dark
skinned. It became one of my biggest insecurities back then and even until
now. The good thing that I remembered is that, I came to realized that I have
Jess Mark G. Libuna Module II- Lesson II
BSIS 1-A PSY- Understanding the Self

gotten older now. So many changes happened to me. So many memories keep
coming back from my childhood until now and it makes me happy
remembering all those good times.
2. How did you feel about these changes?
 I felt a mixed reaction. Happy at the same time doesn’t want to accept the
fact that there are so many changes keep on happening to me. I feel like I
want to come back to my childhood days. They say change is the only
constant in this world and I think it’s very true. We are all changing. No
matter what we do, the simple traits or even actions that we are unaware of
there are changes.
3. What questions about being a male/female bothered you at the time?
 For being male, the questions that bothered me by that time was when people
ask me if I am circumcised already. I was bothered by that time since I think
it’s very weird to ask a kid entering his teenage years if he is circumcised or
not. Especially if it comes from a random strangers.
4. To whom did you get answers for these questions?
 To be honest, I get the answers from my grandparents. They explained to me
that I have already reached the right age to do it. They explained to me why I
needed to do that and how important it is for a teenager although I was 10 by
that time. Lastly, maybe the big reason is to avoid being bullied when I enter
junior high school if they found out that I am still uncircumcised.
5. What significant insights did you have about growing up and being a man/woman?
 The significant insights that I have when I was growing up is that being a
man is a person who values his personality rather than appearance. A real
man is a man who knows how to respect people. A man who respect a
woman’s decision. A man who uses his brain to think first before doing
unnecessary actions. A man who thinks logically and reasonably. For me,
that is what my insights growing up on what being a man is.

ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS.

1. If you were invited to speak to teenagers in your barangay about sexuality what will
be the focus of your speech? Write the main concepts of the content of your speech
on the space provided below?
 For me, I will focus on teaching those teenagers to understand about their
sexuality. I want them to learn about their primary and secondary sexual
characteristics. The main concepts would be giving them awareness about
the possible changes that they would experience. Another point is to teach
them about human sexual response cycle since teenagers are very curios we
should educate them properly for educational purposes only. Lastly, making
them learn and understand about their sexuality is the most important.

2. Your best friend emailed you that she is engaged in pre-marital sex, how would you
share your learnings in the chemistry of lust, attraction, and attachment to him/her?
You can use the space below.
 If ever that happened, I would like to ask him/her about their real score and
if have they thought about it before doing it since there are some situations
wherein some are victims of brain washing and rape that’s why I wanted to
make sure first before I talked to them. After that I’ll ask them what they
really feel about their partner. I want to find out the level of their feelings if
it’s just purely sex related, attraction or attachment since I don’t want my
friend to be hurt at the end. After knowing their answers, then that will be
the good time to share my learnings in lust, attraction, and attachment which
might be very helpful for my friend to get some sense and understand what’s
happening and what’s real since love is an illusion.
