McClendon Law421 Professor: Kurt Lofland University of Phoenix Online Law421 Group Assignment Scenario1 TORT: This is a very interesting tale of how emotions can driver erratic behavior amongst people. First Daniel being upset that his son has gotten beer spilled on him by Malik, shoves Malik.

The social problem is why women stay in an abusive relationship. Men use various ways of physical abuse toward their spouse in many ways. Physical abuse is caused by shoving, slapping, kicking, punching, tripping, choking, pulling hair, arm-twisting, and by raping. Physical abuse creates low self-esteem in women. All of these are all causes of physical abuse by a man toward a woman.
Knowing Tom has a violent temper which was previously seen when he lashes out at Myrtle the reader therefore fears trouble. After Tom’s exposure of Gatsby as a bootlegger and a numbers racketeer, Gatsby’s sinister criminal activities prove to be the cause of Daisy’s ‘lost voice’ and, Gatsby’s loss of Daisy herself. The second narrator, Michaelis, along with the police officer, tells the reader of the events surrounding Myrtle’s death. This use of a stranger to narrate the story is a change in style, as Fitzgerald usually either uses Nick as the narrator or has other characters relate matters to him, which he subsequently retells. In this case, Nick does not speak with Michaelis, nor indeed know what Michaelis knows, until the inquest.
It is hard for anyone to believe that women assault men at the rate men assault women. If men are victims of spousal abuse just as much as women why do so many go unreported? Among these couples who are both victims of violent acts, is it possible that all women are acting in self-defense? These are some of the questions I will be answering. I am only going to address male on female, female on male, and not male on male violence.

Whether they know it or not, the jokers that make these comments are sexually harassing their victims and no matter what gender, they have an impact. When asked to picture sexual harassment, many people would think of old, creepy men in vans with tinted windows. However, this is not the case, so what is verbal sexual harassment and why is it underrated?

Second, masculinity has been such a daring transformation which affects all males from the time they are young. It has caused young and adult males to be more less superior and also show lack of confidence. Kimmel also suggests that feminists have bought a change in men where "feminism" might be applied in ways that actually help boys. Given that the unfairness and misinformation has created back lashes between males and females has clearly argued by Kimmel which he emphasizes how the "traditional masculinity" has affected how a boy portrays himself in society.

I believe that Daniel Sickle did what many others have done and continue to do, manipulate and abuse a plea intended for people who cannot help themselves.
