or giving of dowry is our trend and become mandatory. But poor families are not in the condition to give dowry. They want to escape from this type of condition and then they commit female feticide.

Physiology, Anthropology, Sociology, Sex, Crime, Religion and Education. In chapter seventeen of the book he writes about, adolescent girls and their education, and compares with the opposite sex. In the chapter we see that the adolescence in woman is looked at from a biological standpoint, a medical standpoint, Nubility of Educated Women, Fecundity of Educated Women, and then just simply education alone.

and testicles, but without a penis or with a smaller one (David Myers, 2014). For these people, the line drawn by society can be blurry and it can be difficult to tell where they belong, “One study reviewed 14 cases of boys who had undergone early sex-reassignment surgery and had been raised as girls. Of those cases, six had later declared themselves as males, five were living as females, and three had an unclear gender identity” (Reiner and Gearheart, 2014). Gender can be defined as, “…the…

Men are strong and must always be strong. Men experienced more physical violence than women in the last twelve months but women also face rape and stalking (Mantel). Domestic violence is often down played because many don’t realize it is a crime. Mantel explores that the CDC found that reports of domestic abuse are almost even between men and women, “About 55 percent of the victims (6,982,000) were female and 45 percent were male (5,691,000).” The mentality that a man must be strong and can’t…

cultural and environmental factors. This associates with the “nature vs. nuture” argument, as I will be exploring and comparing sociologist views on whether biology has more of an influence on gender or sociology. From a sociologist’s point of view, sex is referred to the biological approach and status for instance, a child will be indentified as boy or girl at birth due their genitals, for examples females have vaginas and males have penises. On the other hand, some sociologist may refer…

too complex to be created only from social pressures and stereotypes (Both Biology and Culture). Blum states that males are inherently more aggressive than females, as evidenced by copious amounts of crime statistics, and "[...] thus the issue becomes not whether there is a biologically influenced sex difference in aggression-- the answer being a sold, technical "You betcha"-- but rather how rigid the difference is." (Both Biology and Culture). Blum believes that how much value people place on…

Is Deviance Okay Understanding the meaning of the word “deviance” allows me an opportunity to put the word into a different light. Like most people when I hear the word deviance I immediately associate this with something of negative value and or negative behavior. We never once take into account that we ourselves can be view and labeled as deviant. We seem to believe because we follow the social norms that society has implemented, we are not “deviant”. Needless to say it, but we all engage…

Additionally, domestic violence happens very often and most of people consider it—not as a crime—but a norm of marriage. And the reasons for it? The reporters of DHS Program give us some instances: disrespecting in-laws, neglecting the house or children, arguing with husband, going out without husband’s consent, etc. and even not cooking properly—putting less or more salt—is enough to be beaten (Hindin, Kishor, and Ansara, 27). Similarly to the case of rape victims, these women cannot run to…

progress is often criticized, topics like pay discrepancy between males and females are considered issues. The government of Afghanistan is so different that they are hesitant to discuss crimes against women. When a rape occurs, the women is immediately assumed to be at fault. It is taboo in Afghanistan to discuss sex abuse, and officials are reluctant to describe the struggle of opium brides despite their awareness of…

Video games have been a way to express the ideas and creativity of a person, but it has been taken to another level. In the two articles, “Sex, violence and video games” by Mitch Krpata and “Not a Hater, Just Keepin ' It Real: The Importance of Race- and Gender-Based Game Studies” by David J. Leonard, the theme of racism is presented in the form of video games. Although video games are just fantasy, major social issues that affect all us in different ways have risen. Moreover, Leonard makes a…
