Paper Summary:

The paper discusses how in our society, women are more often victims of crime and other deviant behavior than are men. The paper explains that what is defined as deviant behavior is in the "eye of the beholder" depending on whether the participants in the deviant situation are male or female, and, the gender of the audience perceiving the behavior is also important in how the situation is perceived. Additionally, the paper points out that although perception is important, so is data, which indicates men commit more violent crimes than do women do.
