Research

It's hard to believe the violence against women. You might think it only happens in movies, book, and soap operas. The reality is it happens every where in this world. For example 30 minutes away from Carbondale where I live. There was a men from selt who had raped 3 girls age of 5, 6 and 7 form Carbondale. The 3 girls where the man family members, they were the daughters of his brother. Now the girls are 18, 19 20 years old the reason the girls did not say anything sooner is because they would make themselves think it was a dream. Just this summer the girls opened up and told the police what had happened. They remembered when he would touch them and make them have sex. There are three main reasons that cause violence against women; 1. Alcohol, 2. Sex and power motives 3. Family, School, and Religion.

Some sex assaults occur in the use of alcohol. Alcohol use has been reported in between 25 percent and 85 percent of beating and up to 75 percent of rapes. Research have found that heavy drinking patterns are related to aggressive behavior and sexual violence. Sex and Power Motives have a big part in raping. For example Violence against women is believed to be motivated by need to dominate women. Rape in particular, represents fulfillment of sexual needs through violence. One thing that really surprised me is that rapist respond more than nonsexual offenders to rape cues than to consenting sex cues. I cant believe that rapist get aroused (turn-on) by a women screaming for her life and yelling for him to stop. Family, School, and Religion is the first step to explain why sex offenders act the way they do. Studies of violent criminals and violent sex offenders have found that men are more likely to have experienced poor parental children, poor supervision, physical abuse, neglect, and separation from their parent. Men raised in family's that the men have the control of every movement in their family are more likely to become violent adults, and rape women.

Every time that I write a new blog I learn more. It's very interesting how women suffer, and go through very hard and painful moments. Men can say that they are the head of the house BUT the women is the neck, The head can NOT move without the nick. The nick is what holds the head. In my eyes a women is very important no one and nothing can compare with the work that a women can do. Women should have respect as well as give respect.How would men like it when women take advantage of them?

You did it! You're finding out a lot of good facts and details related to your topic. In the future, keep in mind that when you write an essay (expository writing) especially in college, that you are supposed to keep it in the 3rd person point of view (don't use "I"). That is more formal and expected for this type of writing.
