In essay form, please describe your response to Bacha Posh. What may be some consequences
for gender identity? How may this influence intergenerational relationships within a family?
What are some implications for child development?
Your response must be in an essay format (addressing all the above questions), typed, double-
spaced, and uploaded to D2L as a Word document by June 28 h at 11:59 PM, EST.
The length of your actual response must be between 600-700 words (excluding names, title,
references, etc.). You are strongly encouraged to research other sources for this paper. Your
paper must be in APA style, including in-text citations and references at the end. Please note
that no abstract or cover page is needed for this submission.
Your Turnitin score must be less than 20. After seeing your Turnitin score, you may upload
your revised paper as many times as you wish. I will only grade the final submission that you
have uploaded.
[When you have a score over 20, I always read the Turnitin report to see where the problem lies.
Points will be taken off from your final submission if the Turnitin score is greater than 20 for
reasons other than the references.
To bring down your Turnitin score, a good strategy is to eliminate quotes, unless they are
compelling and must be said exactly in those words. You can always paraphrase what was said,
and give credit to the person who said it as your in-text citation. This will definitely bring down
the Turnitin score]
