Paper Summary:

This paper considers a rape in Glen Ridge, NJ, as described in Bernard Lefkowitz's, "Our Guys", and attempts to show how the rape occurred and why the society reacted as it did, using the construct of hegemonic masculinity. The events are outlined, as well as the theory of the rape. The construct is applied and an alternative critique suggested that if implemented could help to avoid such crimes in the future.
