People believe that more women are offered more assistance after being released from jail compared to men because men typically want to play the “tough man” role to prove that they do not need any help compared to women once being released from jail.

He is ignorant of the issue of sexual harassment and the consequences women face for attempting to speak up. After finding out about the girl who was killed for confronting her accuser from Seales he is taken aback but not before responding with extreme protection suggestions for

Some would say that this therefore false accusation that feminism is about hating men is a ploy used by men to reinforce the patriarchal, male-centred culture. It is true that there are a certain number of male extremists who are now trying to label women as the “problem” while they undergo a role reversal to become the new victims such as when the patriarchy seek to “minimise male violence by exaggerating men’s experience of violence at the hands of women”. For this reason, amongst others, women are reluctant to wholly include men in the feminist movement. It also comes from a real concern that hard-fought-for and scare resources used in working from gender equality would be redirected to men who globally already control the majority of resources and the. Some feminists also claim that men cannot be feminists as they can never truly know what gender inequality feels like for a woman.

The logical is something like ‘’if men can become women, then nothing is certain”. So they feel attacked and they react by lashing out. It isn’t the trans people that are terrible, it’s nothing about them that is terrible that causes people to act this

Sexual harassment has the cumulative effect of eroding women's commitment to careers in male-dominated areas. Purpose of the Study It is clear that gender (Male/Female) based public harassment is pervasive as multiple negative effects on men/women and society. However, little attention has been directed towards this issue. This may be due in part to both men and women viewing harassment as either trivial or with a romanticized interpretation. Gardner (1995) reported that many men/women use a romanticized rhetoric in response to harassment.

Allen is often scrutinised for dealing with female characters as erotic objects merely there for the male gaze. Many of his film including some scenes of Irrational Man includes narrators explaining their own actions that more often than not actively objectify young women. He is known for a depiction of the much-older man pursuing the much-younger woman. The fact that director Woody Allen has been charged with molesting his adopted daughter makes this complex particularly interesting especially in terms of his films. More often than not Woody Allen’s movies are critiqued to As James Wolcott in Vanity Fair noted; “Increasingly, the women in his movies

They are constantly pushed to prove their masculinity and the worst deviation from hegemonic masculinity is homosexuality. An attitude that rendered the life of my friend, Luigi, difficult since he was not willing to hide his sexual orientation and faced disapproval and discrimination including from his family. The relationship between masculinity and morality is complicated since masculinity requires auto-control and a high sense of morality, while men are perceived as violent and predatory. The concept of overly dominant violent heads of family is rejected today and violence against women is condemned. However, on one occasion I had the questionable pleasure of talking to a young man that told me with great pride about beating his supposedly unfaithful girlfriend and her supposed lover severely.

The Sheriff who talked to Brandon had absolutely no compassion for him and what he went through. “Society 's posture on rape, and the manifestation of that posture in the courts, help account for the fact that so few rapes are reported” (Anonymous 247). This quote from The Rape of Mr. Smith relates to this scene because Brandon went through a terrible thing, that no person should have to go through, and he was interrogated about it and shown no compassion. “The law discriminates against rape victims in a manner which would not be tolerated by victims of any other crime” (Anonymous 246).

Rap lyrics today is very degrading, the lyrics encourages a disrespectful response to our young women and sway our young men into domestic abuse, alcohol abuse and drug use. Most people, older men and women are totally against the derogatory language used in these lyrics. Armstrong (2001) conducted a content analysis of 490 rap songs from 1987 to 1993, in which 22% contained lyrics featuring violence against women including assault, rape and murder. His study classified rap songs into different categories in which rappers either pride themselves on sex acts appearing to harm women, justify other acts of violence, warn women who challenge male domination that they will be assaulted, and/or seem to invite male violence against women (Armstrong, 2001). Weitzer and Kubrin (2009) conducted a follow-up study analyzing the portrayal of women in 403 rap songs through a content analysis, in which themes of derogatory naming and shaming of women; sexual objectification of women; distrust of women; legitimation of violence against women; and celebration of prostitution and pimping appeared at the greatest frequency.
