What is Normal? Lorber’s Believing is Seeing: Biology as Ideology In her article Believing is Seeing‚ Judith Lorber writes of the very fine line between gender and sex. She argues that neither sex nor gender is a pure category of classification. They are more so just a combination of the two of them in the social construction of gender statuses.

Without oxygen‚ life itself would be nonexistent. Imagine what would happen if wounds did not get better‚ incisions did not heal‚ and burns did not improve. This is where hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) comes into play. Oxygen is necessary for the replenishment of tissues‚ healing of the body and assisting with general ailments. HBOT is used for a wide variety of treatments usually as requested in a medical care plan (Society‚ 1996). In this paper I will introduce what hyperbaric oxygen therapy
