A Critical Analysis of Camille Paglia: “On Date Rape” Date Rape, as defined by the oxford dictionary; “forced sexual intercourse by a male acquaintance of a woman, during a voluntary social engagement in which the woman did not intend to submit to the sexual advances, and resisted the acts”. This defers from other types of rape due to the fact that the victim and the rapist have some type of social relationship leaving the victim more venerable. Rohypnol, also known as “the date rape drug”, is a narcotic used in social events to attempt to sexually assault a person. The drug is normally administered into some unsuspecting woman’s drink. It is colorless, orderless and flavorless, thus making it a very dangerous narcotic.

Ingraham felt this broken system had been pushing women onto the street and into prostitution. The paper tried to place moral pressure on men, urging them to stay away from prostitutes and refrain from seeking their services. The American Female Moral Reform Society also ran "safe houses" for women who had just moved to New York. These safe houses offered shelter and training for "respectable" employment to women who had just moved to New York. The group was also involved in influencing the New York legislature to pass statutory rape laws.

It is hard to stay attached to one side of the story, because the raping of a little girl was bad, but killing the rapists wasn't the right way to take care of it. I would rate this film five stars because it shows that murdering is illegal, but that fathers would do the same as Carl Lee did if their daughters were raped, and that the main characters's lives were in danger proving Carl Lee innocent but still continued to fight for the case no matter how risky it was. I would recommend this movie because the story was touching and inspiring, it showed a father who had his daughter raped trying to find justice by giving the rapists what he thought they deserved, and getting himself free of the crime he has committed for his
A couple of examples are spousal murder and rape. (Gen 14 2012, p.24-26) Women who murder their husbands no matter what the circumstances find it hard to be treated sympathetically by the justice system. This is due to the historical cultural stereotypes of women and the Judicial Myopia of the judges and courts. (Gen 14 2012, p.23) Historically men are given greater latitude when it comes to spousal murder as women are seen as a man’s possession and any deviance from that is provocation. (Gen 14 2012, p.24) Women find it difficult to plead provocation as they are expected to be submissive whereas male stereotypes suggests it is acceptable to be aggressive and abusive to keep the women obedient and in her place.
Qualitative data refers to data that consists of verbal summaries, observations, or analysis. For example, one out of four girls will be raped in their lifetime (National Sexual Violence Resource Center, 2009), this statement is based on quantitative data. After a woman is raped often intimate relationships are difficult and trusting others can be challenging (National Sexual Violence Resource Center, 2009), this statement is based on qualitative data. Both quantitative data and qualitative data are essential to research, and both types of data have equal importance (Shaughnessy, Zechmeister, & Zechmeister, 2009). Another important aspect of research is the process of scientific theory construction and testing.
Slut challenges the beliefs held in association of the powerful word. Slut has been used historically against women; in this case slut is for women. The policeman used the label slut and by reusing it under their own term’s SlutWalk’s name alone is a direct challenge.

Domestic Violence Shelters educate in counseling the victims that domestic violence is about power and control. The abuser wants to dominate the victim/survivor and wants all the power in the relationship-and uses violence in order to establish and maintain authority and power. Perpetrators of domestic violence are usually not sick or deranged, but have learned abusive, manipulative techniques and behaviors that allow them to dominate and control others and obtain the responses they desire. Teaching the victim to view the abusers actions such as: An abuser will often restrict a victim's outlets, forbidding the victim to maintain outside employment, friends, and family ties. This has an isolating effect, leaving victims with no support system, and creating dependency.
