Devi & Head/2 Views of Patriarchy
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that contrasts and compares two short stories. While the legacy of patriarchy has receded in Western industrialized countries, it remains entrenched in cultures. Bessie Head in "The Collector of Treasures" (writing from an African perspective) and Mahasweta Devi in "Dhowli" (writing about Indian culture) each show the devastation that patriarchal custom can have in the lives of two women. A theme that is prominent in both works is that women are forced to take extreme measures in their lives because society offers them no viable alternatives. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Discrimination Of Women In Law Enforcement
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. Gender inequity is a social ill that even now as mankind moves into the twenty-first century is still as prevalent as it was fifty years ago. Even though the feminist movement garnered some tremendous strides for gender discrimination in developed countries, it has not had a noticeable impact upon certain industries. Law enforcement and the military are two of the most conspicuous of all labor forces where gender discrimination continues to be at the forefront of staffing issues, mainly because of the twofold reasoning that claims 1) the female physique does not conform to relatively new policies pertaining to strength and weight-to-height ratios, and 2) women fall under the main category of minority, a subpopulation that has not historically performed as well as their more genetically entitled male counterparts. Bibliography lists 13 sources.

Do Women Need To Get Married?

3 pages in length. Had this question been asked one hundred years ago, the answer would have been an unequivocal yes, inasmuch as tradition, economic security and procreation have long been at the forefront of why women have needed to get married. Contemporary society, however, has effectively erased the first criterion, empowered the second and manufactured the third, leaving women with little need - other than perhaps emotional - to become married. Bibliography lists one source.

Domestic Abuse in Australia
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. Wife-battering is one of the most widespread under-reported crimes overseas and in Australia. One difficulty in obtaining accurate statistics regarding the frequency of wife-battering is that victims themselves do not report it. Many women 'keep it in the family' and normalize abuse while others are unaware of the means by which to report it or else fear doing so. This paper explores the understanding of the social and cultural subordination of woman and the topic of domestic abuse in Australia. Delves into the causes and dynamics of family violence. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
