790 words (approx. 3.2 pages) | 3 sources | MLA | 2004 United States


Paper Summary:

This paper examines how the glamorization of violence towards women in the media reflects the skewed mindset of a society that often finds a way to condone or excuse behaviors that oppress and violate a population that is in fact the majority. It looks at how sexual interactions between men and women have changed drastically in some respects over the course of time.

From the Paper:

"The male domination in the perpetration of media supports male domination in all aspects of culture. The exploitation of women may be found in all disciplines and realms of society. The inevitable rise in female status is threatening to the male power structure, and this alarm is reflected in the increase of violence against women. By mainstreaming the topic of rape, society is forced to confront the issue itself, as well as its underlying causes. Media is a construct which enables people to captivate an audience long enough to get a message across in an effective manner. The generational appeal for violence in the form of communication has evolved along with the defining characteristics of the times. "
