Hey well i've been trying to do this essay, but i cant seem to find any research or valid information. My Professor always gives us vague topics with no support or connection to our readings and that is why im struggling. So he gave us the topic of " Sensuality and Love: How different are they." So with that topic, i need to use academic research to prove that my ideas are correct. Now on my own i've determined what each are, but i'm having a hard time finding finding scholarly journals or anything thats not completely opinionated. I've been through three essays like this one, but i cant seem to get out of this brain fart. Any ideas?! :bite:

here is where I always start with essay info lol hope it helps in some way
Love - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love)
sensuality definition - Google Search (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=sensuality+definition&aq=0&oq=sensuality)
oh and good luck with that how long does it have to be?

well I'm glad it helped..im pretty sure you can pull some sh*t off the top of your head for at least 2 or 3 pages and then you should hit the hard facts on wiki and such. That's what I would do.

lol don't use this website because obviously somebody never told the person who typed this to not use the word in it's definition
Sensuality - Definition of Sensuality by Webster Dictionary (http://www.webster-dictionary.net/definition/sensuality)

yeah, i still cant find any academic research on sensuality. most definitions involve the word itself which also make them invalid.

Is this an academic paper with references? Wikipedia in most schools is not accepted as a proper form of reference.

yeah it isnt, but i can use the reference they used, which is what im doing atm. Since it is an academic paper, most information on sensuality is opinion, because of this i cannot find enough information that i can use

Just bring in a couple of hookers and do the deed in front of your class. Then say "this isn't a form of sensuality."

you should make a movie so you don't get an indecent exposure and then have to register as a sex offender lol

if you think about it sensuality depends on the person experiencing the sensuality, so therefore sensuality is all based on opinion the only true fact is the definition of it :eek3: something to tickle your brain lol

i wouldnt use wiki as a reference based on the notion that most of the info isnt credible. why? a majority of it is compiled/edited by random users... who knows whats true or false.

i thought that wiki was also loosely fact, but its actually pretty accurate for the most part. In no way would it fly for an academic paper ofcourse, but compared to the britanica encyclopedia, the accuracy is only a 2% difference. Yeah, i'm just trying to find a way to support sensuality with my own interpretation of it, unless i can find facts. My teacher gives us essays that have nothing to do with any sbject covered in class, and he will not help us with the topic since he beleive that to be unfair...... =/ i go to csula btw.
