Deviant Behavior & The Power of Labeling
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page research paper that examines the use of labeling and how it relates to what is considered to be deviant behavior. For instance, the writer points out that if a woman grows herbs, blends them into creams and potions, and sells them on the open market today, she is considered an astute businesswoman in the booming business of natural homeopathic remedies. If a woman did exactly the same thing three hundred years ago, she'd have been burned or hung as a witch. The writer demonstrates how the same concept can be applied to conceptions of mental illness, drugs, and sexual deviance. Bibliography lists 1 source.

The Crime Of Rape / Responsibility, Blame, & Reporting The Incident
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page research paper in which the writer discusses the failure of most women to report rape due to the unfortunate reality that society fails to accept their definition of rape in many cases and is not always sympathetic towards their plea for justice. Comparisons are made between male and female views of rape and who should be blamed. For example, men are more likely to blame the woman if she is known to have acted in a provocative, 'sexy' fashion whereas women may blame a rape victim because of their need to feel that they are in control of a violent situation and also because of their need to distance themselves from the victim. Disparate psychological issues concerning recovery & coping are also discussed. Bibliography lists more than 20 sources.
