Harassment And Abuse In Sports

Women athletes and women workers do not get the recognition they deserve. Men especially, look down upon women when it comes to their appearances, their knowledge and a women's physical and mental strength. In certain cases, a woman loses out on a job in the sports industry because she is exactly a woman. A male trainer can refuse to train women because of the parts her body has. Men and women have grown up in a world with the mindset that women know less than men when it comes to sports.

In relation to abuse, in health and social care people tends to abuse individuals by doing it physically and this involves slapping, pinching and punching. However, in the health and social care sectors, individuals have no rights to put on such behaviours because it can cause serious harm on an individual 's. Also in terms of abuse, abuse can be done sexual and this involves doing unwanted sex with a child or an adult. So for example, in a school where a male teacher is teaching a female child and he want to have sex with the child and the child refuses. However, if he went on to do it forceful this can be refers to sexual abuse because the child is not in support of it. In addition, abuse can also be done through hate crime, neglecting, verbal

In the context of sexual assault, inadvertent recklessness is part of the mens rea, when the prosecution determine the existence of the mens rea, he or she would have to think about advertent recklessness and inadvertent recklessness. If either of the element exist, there is a mens rea and therefore the person is guilty of the offence and can be convicted. However, in the context of indecent assault, it is more difficult to prove advertent recklessness and inadvertent recklessness. Sections 61L and 61N of the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW) did not mention anything about recklessness.

There are many negative beliefs towards the male gender because of the stereotypes society believes in. When people hear about a news of a rape incident between both genders, they automatically assume the female is the victim and the male is the offender. They make this assumption based on real statistics - since 99% of sex offenders are male and over 80% of the victims are female (sapac.umich.edu). For this reason, parents with daughters feel skeptical when their daughters is around a male since they believe she might be forced into sexual conducts. Society believe when males have a high tendency to feel sexual pleasure, they can not control themselves and will force another individual into sexual conducts in order to satisfy their urge.

In the example of NBA and the WNBA receiving unequal screentime gives evidence for this statement. Women are neglected, or shown less care in the media, and more often than not, male athletes are idolized by children as well as adults because of their frequent appearance on media, such as social media, magazines, or television. This should also be available and open for women sports players. Only in rare cases are women paid the same amount of attention to, such as tennis player Sharapova, and that is only because of her model-like looks! The immense extent of gender bias in sport should be diminished as soon as possible, and this will be a big step in levelling out gender equality in

While some male athletes have the mindset of not wanting to lose to a girl, other males may become an awkward train-wreck. Due to this athlete being nervous, he may choke and not perform to his full extent, all because a female wants to compete with the

Everyone talks about not doing coed sports because it could hurt the girls’ self-esteem, but telling them they can’t do a specific sport because they are a girl is really hurting the girls self-esteem. That is basically putting them down. Those remarks of how they can’t do anything a guy can do because they are a girl is called, a put

Female sex offenders are assessed with an aim of establishing the future likelihood of re-occurrence of such sexual offensive behavior and to establish mechanisms that can be used to decrease the risk and rate of recidivism. They exhibit a higher level of vulnerability connected to these sexual offensive behaviors. An extensive victimization history and social and psychological alienation are issues that are common among most sexual offenders. Static risk factors associated with female sexual offenders include history of criminal offenses, child abuse offenses, drug arrest and prior sexual offense arrest. Dynamic risk factors include substance abuse, problematic relationships, wanting revenge, desire to be intimate with a victim and using of sex as a tool for regulating emotional state.

That is due to them being women this shows that they are sexist. This come from mostly men but also women being sexist to each other. They believe that women aren't capable to play or do the same sport as men. Women are capable to

Victims are lied to, threatened, and abused. Victims can be men, boys, women or girls of all ages. According to this quote slavery is horrible. Sex trafficking is horrible because slavery is considered abuse, assault and is against human rights.

Chapter eight of my book talks about Sexual Assault. Rap, sexual abuse and assault happens more than we think and not just among women, however, men as well. The odds are that the person who abuses you is likely someone that you know. Many sexual abuse cases involving children is unreported as a result of being scared, ashamed, guilt or threatened, same goes for being raped or attempted rapes. There are several myths about rap in the manner that women provoke or wanted to be raped, cry rap to take revenge, women wanted it since they did not resist and many more.

Boys are taught to “suck it up” or “be a man about it”. Due to many trials about women having experiences with domestic violence everyone seems to forget that men go through that too. When it comes to the law there is a higher chance that the government might side with women, making it unequal because both genders can be affected by this. Sexism is brought into this and makes it hard for men to receive the same amount of help because it is not considered a common case. When being told that men go through that they take to take it as a joke and ignore it instead of helping them.

The way female athletes are portrayed in the media is something that I take personal interest in,because I am one so I sympythaize. I may not be competing in the olympics and fighting for the medias attention equvialent to the attention male athletes recieve. I think that the lack of athletic recognition of female in the media not only plays a huge role in motivating a woman to continue her athletic goals but it also gives motivation to young aspiring female athletes. Photos of successful male athletes show them in body revealing poses, while women who do the same often potrayed into being less important, romanticized, and sexualized.

Sexual assault is a very controversial issue in our society. The video by Mini Law, Understanding Sexual Assault Law, gives a detailed overview of Sexual Assault Law. It is presented by Professor Elaine Craig, from the Schulich School of Law. In her presentation she explains that the fundamentals of sexual assault law are the definition of sexual assault, definition of consent and rules of evidence. Overall, Sexual Assault Law in Canada is flawed and there is a lot of reform that must still be done.

So I feel women’s sports aren 't as popular as men’s sports because of the misconception of women in America, Lack of Media coverage, and sponsors are unwilling to finance individuals and teams that don’t get good exposure. In a way it’s kind of like a vicious cycle, in the since that all these reasons are linked together. Though I feel if we found a good balance between media coverage and sponsorship 's then this problem would be drastically reduced, however as I stated earlier the misconception of woman in America is still somewhat of a problem. I personally don’t think this problem will ever completely go away due to the fact you’re always going to have that one guy who thinks he’s better than a woman due to his gender. You may put me
