Text 3 Most people agree that the family planning programme is desirable for the good
of  family  and  society.  But  individuals  and  religious  groups  differ  sharply  on  the methods of birth control that they consider moral and acceptable.
Couples that practice birth control do so for various reasons. They may want to limit  or  space  their  children,  or  to  have  no  children  at  all.  Young  couples  often
postpone having children so that both partners can work full-time. Other couples space their children so they can give each as much attention as possible. Some
women  are  advised  by  their  doctor  to  avoid  pregnancy  for  health  reasons.  In many  countries  with  rapidly  growing  populations,  the  government  encourages
couples to limit the number of their families. Even thought birth control has gained in acceptance, opposition to the practice
iscontinuous. Some people fear that birth control encourages sexual outside marriage or that government might impose birth control. Some religious groups
oppose birth control on moral grounds. Some religious groups teach that artificial methods of birth control are

Male chauvinism mens believe in male superiority extends even into the area of automobile  driving,  it  seems.  They  believe  that  they  are  far  better  drivers  than
women.  Men  consider  women  drivers  incompetent,  inattentive  and  even dangerous behind the wheel.
However,  statistics  prove  that  women  are,  in  fact,  safer  drivers  than  men.  For example,  insurance  rates  for  women  are  20  percent  than  they  are  for  men.

15 Another  proof  is  that  more  accidents  are  caused  by  male  drivers  between  the
ages  of  18 and 25  than  by  any  other  groups.  Also  the  greater  percentage  of accident  involving  death  is  caused  by  men.  Although  women  are  criticized  for
being too cautious, they are really just being safe drivers. The reason for women drivers safer habits can perhaps be  found in the differing
attitudes of sexes toward automobiles as a convenience, like a washing machine. On  the  other  hand,  men  regard  the  automobile  as  an  extension  of  their  egos.

The government has decided to submit the draft of the bill against pornography and  pornographic  acts.  The  bill  states  that  anyone  engaging  in  pornography  is
punishable by law. This includes public acts such as spouses kissing and people sunbathing in bikini or swimwear. As a consequence, the bill causes controversy.
The  government  argues that  the  bill  is  made to protect  women‟s  right. Women
have  so  far  been  the  object  of  exploitation  in  mass  media  and  this  only  gives more benefits to the owner of the business.
Woman activists, on the other hand, argue that the bill will limit women‟s freedom. They  believe  the  bill  will  dictate  what  women  should  wear  and  on  how  to  dress
and  behave.  If  they  fail  following  the  rule  they  will  get  penalties  between  Rp50 million and Rp1 billion.
