From the Paper:

"Few topics have been written about more in the past century than gender issues. It has been, and remains, a controversial and constantly evolving topic. In her article, "Introduction: Sexual stereotypes as political ideology," Barbara Sinclair Deckard places the debate in its historical and sociological context, reviewing the ways in which women have been reviled by men over the centuries, and the reasons for this abuse. She thus highlights a long history of individual acts of misogynist abuse. By contrast, Gary Teeple in his article, "The fourteen women of Montreal," kicks off his article by focusing on just one specific incident of abuse - the massacre of fourteen female students by a deranged, misogynist man."
