Effects of violent crime (1)
The document discusses the effects of violent crime on victims, society, and the government. It notes that young males aged 16-24 are most likely to be victims, while the elderly are least likely. Victims can experience increased fear, vulnerability, and psychological impacts. Violent crime can disproportionately impact ethnic minorities and LGBTQ individuals. Witnessing violence can lead to higher rates of PTSD and mental health issues in communities. Violent crime surges affect low-crime areas more than high-crime areas. Governments implement programs and policies to curb violent crime and support victims and communities.
The Effects of Crime on Individuals as Victims and Perpetrators
1) Crime can have significant emotional, practical, and financial impacts on victims. Victims often experience shock, fear, anxiety, depression, and changes in beliefs about safety after being victimized.
2) Both short term impacts like trauma and long term issues like PTSD are common in victims and depend on the type and severity of the crime. Ongoing domestic violence or child abuse victims can experience repeated trauma.
3) In addition to emotional effects, many victims face practical problems like repairs, lost wages, medical bills, and higher insurance costs due to the crime. Over 150,000 children in the UK are also affected each year by a parent's imprisonment.
The Effects of Crime on Individuals As Victims and Perpetrators
Victims of crime can experience a variety of emotional, psychological, and practical effects depending on factors such as the type and severity of the crime. In the short term, victims typically feel shocked, terrified, and anxious and may have nightmares or flashbacks. Over months, victims may become preoccupied with the crime and have relationship or trust issues. Untreated trauma can lead to long term issues like depression, substance abuse, or post-traumatic stress disorder. Crimes also have practical impacts like property damage, lost wages, and increased security costs, as well as financial impacts through medical bills or lost income. Children of incarcerated parents can feel a lack of control and stability.

The document discusses the impact of crime on victims, criminals, communities, and countries. It notes that crime can have social, financial, and physical impacts. Victims may experience loss of confidence, financial costs, and physical injuries. Criminals often face social isolation, difficulties finding employment, and health issues like drug addiction and mental illness. Communities with high crime rates can experience social problems, lack of economic opportunities, and run-down infrastructure. Countries bear large costs for police, courts, and prisons to address crime, while crime also negatively impacts public health and the environment.

The document discusses gender differences in crime rates and various sociological explanations for these differences. Males are much more likely to commit crimes than females. Some theories proposed to explain this include that males have more opportunities to commit crimes, are socialized differently from a young age which can promote "tough" or risky behaviors, and spend more time in public settings where crime is more likely. However, statistics also show crime rates increasing among females. The chivalry thesis suggests females are seen as more "sad" than males and deserving of help rather than punishment, but some argue females may face double deviance and harsher penalties for deviating from gender norms.
Chapter1
The document provides an overview of the history and current state of corrections in the United States. It discusses how corrections has evolved from the colonial period, through the development of penitentiaries in the 18th-19th centuries, and the reformatory and community corrections movements of the 20th century. Currently, over 7 million Americans are involved in the corrections system through prisons, jails, probation, or parole. The document also presents frameworks for understanding corrections as a system and discusses ongoing challenges around rehabilitation versus punishment approaches.
Chapter2
This document discusses the history and theories of punishment from ancient times through the American Revolution. It covers early legal codes from Mesopotamia and Rome. During the Enlightenment, thinkers like Cesare Beccaria and Jeremy Bentham promoted the classical school of thought that punishment should be rational, consistent with the crime, and aimed at deterrence and prevention over retribution. Modern approaches to punishment include restorative justice focused on the offender, victim, and community. The document also examines various forms of criminal sanctions like incarceration, probation, fines, and the death penalty used today in the United States.

This document discusses gender-based violence in the U.S., focusing on domestic abuse and sexual assault. It explores the historical relationship between patriarchy and violence against women. While such attitudes remain normalized in society today, women of all backgrounds experience these forms of violence. The document then outlines two approaches to addressing this issue: responding through improving police response and supporting survivors, and preventing further assaults through education and awareness programs. It stresses the importance of continued research to evaluate effective policies and methods for holding perpetrators accountable and changing social views.

This document discusses sexual abuse in juvenile corrections facilities. It begins by defining the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) of 2003, which aims to eliminate sexual assault and rape in correctional settings. It then discusses the "code of silence" among both inmates and corrections staff that can enable illegal and unethical behavior. Statistics from a 2012 national survey find that 7.7% of youth in custody reported sexual victimization by staff, with some experiencing over 11 incidents. Specific examples from facilities in Tennessee and Louisiana illustrate how widespread and systemic the problem can be. The document raises important issues around protecting vulnerable youth in detention settings.
Gender and crime draft
There are gender differences in criminal offending rates, with males committing most crimes. Sociological theories seek to explain this difference. The functionalist sex role theory argues that females have a nurturing role that prevents crime. Control theory argues that greater societal control over females through domestic and public roles limits their opportunities and ability to offend. The patriarchal control thesis and gender deals theory build on this, suggesting controls in the home, public sphere, and workplace restrict females' activities and mobility. As females gain liberation from patriarchal constraints, the liberation thesis argues their crime rates may increase to match males.
How do feminists explain crime 2013
Feminist theories of crime seek to address the fact that traditional sociological theories of crime have largely ignored women and taken a male-centered perspective. There are several strands of feminist thought on explaining crime:
1. Liberal feminism argues that including women in research and developing theories that consider both male and female perspectives can lead to better understanding of crime.
2. Radical feminism asserts that crime can only be understood from a female point of view and that male domination and threat of violence against women must be considered.
3. Postmodern feminism critiques traditional criminology for focusing on male concerns like street crime and argues feminists should examine a wider range of harms against women both legal and illegal
Anti rape gloves
This document proposes the design of "Anti-Rape Gloves" to help protect women against sexual assault. The gloves would deliver an electric shock and heat to anyone the woman touches, injuring would-be attackers. The gloves would contain an aluminum foil circuit connected to a battery that the woman could activate with a thumb button. This would allow her to shock an assailant by keeping her palm on them. The document argues such a device could help reduce India's high rates of rape and molestation by empowering women to defend themselves.
Corrections chapter 12 ppt
The document discusses the history and current state of the juvenile justice system in the United States. It covers the following key periods: the Puritan period (1646-1824), the Refuge period (1824-1899), the Juvenile Court period (1899-1960), the Juvenile Rights period (1960-1980), and the Crime Control period (1980-2005). It also summarizes several important Supreme Court cases that shaped the juvenile justice system. The document concludes by discussing factors that influence juvenile offending and different sanctions used for juveniles, such as probation, incarceration, and community corrections programs.
Right realism mind map
Right realism is a criminological theory that criticizes other theories for failing to offer practical solutions to rising crime. Right realists view labelling theory and critical criminology as too sympathetic to criminals. They believe the main causes of crime are biological and social factors like low intelligence and a lack of nuclear families. Right realists argue that individuals make rational choices to commit crimes when the costs are low, such as the low probability of being caught or receiving lenient punishment. The theory emphasizes maintaining social order and control through zero-tolerance policies, greater use of prisons, and ensuring punishment closely follows criminal acts to maximize deterrence.

Gender and crime the basics
Women commit less crime than men, but the gap is closing. Women tend to commit different types of crimes like shoplifting, receiving stolen goods, and prostitution, while men more commonly commit violent crimes, sex crimes, and burglary. Statistics show men are far more likely to be convicted of crimes and to be repeat offenders. However, some argue female crimes may be less likely to be reported or prosecuted compared to male crimes. Sociological explanations for differences in male and female criminality include socialization into different gender roles, the effects of patriarchal control over women, and theories that women's crime rates may increase as patriarchal control diminishes.
Is the Criminal Justice System biased towards or against women?
The document discusses evidence for and against the "chivalry thesis" which asserts that women are treated more leniently than men by the criminal justice system. Evidence for it includes self-report studies showing smaller differences in admitted crimes between men and women than official statistics. Evidence against includes arguments that the criminal justice system is biased against women, for example by scrutinizing female victims of crimes like rape more than male perpetrators. Overall, the document suggests the criminal justice system may treat men and women differently based on societal gender norms and expectations.
THREE KEY EXPLANATIONS FOR GENDER PATTERNS IN CRIME
1. Four key theories are discussed to explain patterns in female crime: functionalist sex role theory, control theory, class and gender deals theory, and the changing women's role or 'liberation thesis'.
2. Functionalist sex role theory argues that differential socialization patterns result in boys being more disposed to violence and crime. Control theory suggests that patriarchal social control mechanisms reduce crime opportunities for women.
3. Class and gender deals theory proposes that working class women commit more serious crimes when rewards for conformity through class and gender deals are unavailable.
4. The liberation thesis argues that as patriarchy weakens and women take on more male roles, female crime rates have risen; however, critics argue this

She is motivated to participate more in politics to make the future better for her children and teaches them the importance of voting. Something that surprised her was how interest groups can make a difference by joining together. An important political issue is fracking, as it poses risks to the environment and fresh water supply. Texas plays a large role in the federal government through its large judicial system that practices the most executions, border control and immigration issues, and influence on criminal justice policies. Misty has learned the importance of getting involved and facts about the prison system and education funding.
Unit 12 Sociological Theories Of Crime
Strain theory argues that people engage in crime due to strain or stress in their lives. They may commit crimes like violence, theft, or drug use to reduce or escape from strain caused by issues like harassment, financial problems, or abusive relationships. Social learning theory claims people learn criminal behavior through association with criminal peers and by being reinforced for criminal acts. Control theory takes a different approach, arguing that people naturally want to satisfy their desires through crime but refrain from it due to controls like rules, monitoring by authority figures, and the threat of sanctions.
Persp2012obama 121101140426-phpapp02
The document summarizes the sociological and economic models of voting behavior. It discusses how the sociological model looks at how social influences like class, religion, ethnicity, and relationships affect political socialization and voting decisions. It argues this model is highly influential in the current election. It also describes the economic model as voting based on self-interest and issues like inflation, gas prices, and economic conditions. Projections are given showing Obama winning the national popular vote but Romney winning in Georgia based on its conservative leanings. The document concludes by listing references used.
2013 why is most crime male crime?
This document discusses theories around why most crime is committed by males. It summarizes the work of criminologists Maureen Cain, Bob Connell, and James Messerschmidt who link crime to concepts of masculinity and gender roles. Specifically, they argue that there is a dominant and idealized form of masculinity (hegemonic masculinity) that some males feel pressure to achieve through actions like paid work, subordinating women, and demonstrating an uncontrollable sex drive. For some males, especially those lacking other resources, crime and deviance may be ways to accomplish this ideal form of masculinity and prove themselves as men. The theories are criticized for being circular, overpredicting crime, and potentially overgeneralizing
Explaining female crime sociologically
1. There are three key sociological explanations for differences in female criminality: functionalist sex role theory, control theory, and the changing women's role or 'liberation thesis'.
2. Functionalist sex role theory argues that women are socialized differently than men and taught to be nurturing rather than aggressive, which makes criminal behavior less likely. Control theory suggests that tighter social controls on women through patriarchal structures reduce opportunities for crime.
3. The changing women's role thesis proposes that as women take on more 'male' roles in society and experience greater liberation, female crime rates have risen as social controls have weakened. However, critics argue that most female criminals are still working class women who are least

Acid attacks and wife burnings are common forms of violence against women in some Muslim-majority countries. Victims are often poor women who have little voice or power in their societies. Perpetrators are rarely prosecuted. One activist in Pakistan has documented over 7,800 cases of acid attacks and burnings against women in one area alone since 1994, but only 2% of perpetrators were convicted. Because women have low social status, their attackers face little consequences. The violence has become normalized.
Legalisation of sex work opposing it
1) The document opposes the legalization of sex work for several reasons. It argues that prostitution violates basic human rights, promotes an exploitative view of women as commodities, and increases health risks, violence, and human trafficking.
2) Legalizing prostitution has not solved problems in countries where it has been tried - there is still exploitation of trafficked women, increased demand that fuels trafficking, and lack of protection for sex workers.
3) Sex work perpetuates patriarchal ideology and gender inequality by viewing male sexuality as uncontrollable and women's bodies as objects to fulfill male desires. The state should protect citizens' dignity rather than legitimize the harms of prostitution.
What Sex Workers Have to Say
This document summarizes a study on the impact of job-related violence on sex workers in San Francisco. The study consisted of qualitative interviews and surveys with 13 current and former sex workers. It found that physical attacks by clients were common, with 7 out of 7 surveyed experiencing such violence. Intimate partner violence also had a significant impact and was a major source of anxiety. While various identities like gender, ethnicity and sexual orientation were examined, they were not found to be the primary factors influencing violence according to the participants. The conclusion calls for anti-violence programs, like counseling and support groups, to adequately address the issues of job-related and intimate partner violence experienced by this community.

The study found that 8.5% of adolescents and young adults ages 13-20 reported perpetrating some form of sexual violence in their lifetime. Male perpetrators were more likely than females to report attempted rape or coercive sex. Female perpetrators tended to be older and victimize people older than themselves, while male perpetrators tended to be younger when they first offended and target younger victims. Very few sexual violence incidents were reported to authorities, with only one male perpetrator in the study reporting being arrested. The results provide initial nationwide estimates of adolescent sexual violence perpetration but have limitations due to sensitivity of the topic.i want a conclusion for 3 drafts my group wrote and please i want it.docx

It is clear that there are serious medical consequences to same-sex behavior by having too many diseases.
Male Homosexual Behavior
Men having sex with other men leads to greater health risks than men having sex with women19 not only because of promiscuity but also because of the nature of sex among men. A British researcher summarizes the danger as follows:
"Male homosexual behaviour is not simply either 'active' or 'passive,' since penile-anal, mouth-penile, and hand-anal sexual contact is usual for both partners, and mouth-anal contact is not infrequent. . . . Mouth-anal contact is the reason for the relatively high incidence of diseases caused by bowel pathogens in male homosexuals.
Anal intercourse
Yet human physiology makes it clear that the body was not designed to accommodate this activity. The rectum is significantly different from the vagina with regard to suitability for penetration by a penis. The vagina has natural lubricants and is supported by a network of muscles. It is composed of a mucus membrane with a multi-layer stratified squamous epithelium that allows it to endure friction without damage and to resist the immunological actions caused by semen and sperm.
Anal-genital consequences
-Anal Cancer
Chlamydia trachomatis
Cryptosporidium
Giardia lamblia
Herpes simplex virus
-Human immunodeficiency virus
-Human papilloma virus
Isospora belli
Microsporidia
Gonorrhea
Viral hepatitis types B & C
Syphilis
Female Homosexual Behavior
Lesbians are also at higher risk for health problems than heterosexuals. However, the health consequences of lesbianism are less well documented than for male homosexuals. This is partly because the devastation of AIDS has caused male homosexual activity to draw the lion's share of medical attention.
Shortened Life Span
The greater incidence of physical and mental health problems among gays and lesbians has serious consequences for length of life. While many are aware of the death toll from AIDS, there has been little public attention given to the magnitude of the lost years of life
AIDS and homosexuality
• 2% of U.S. population is gay yet it accounts for 61% of HIV infection: "Men who have sex with men remain the group most heavily affected by new HIV infections. While CDC estimates that MSM represent only 2 percent of the U.S. population, they accounted for the majority (61 percent; 29,300) of all new HIV infections in 2009. Young MSM (ages 13 to 29) were most severely affected, representing more than one quarter of all new HIV infections nationally (27 percent; 12,900 in 2009)." (Center for Disease Control,
cdc.gov/nchhstp/newsroom/HIVIncidencePressRelease.html

Do you feel the assessment was an appropriate tool If so, why, an.docx
Do you feel the assessment was an appropriate tool? If so, why, and how could it be beneficial? If not, what were the drawbacks of the assessments?
The Female Sexual Function Index comes out as an assessment tool which mainly focuses on women, therefore, accomplishing its intended purpose. Each of the 19 items tested by the series of questions in the questionnaire touches on the sexual experiences of women prior to, during, or before sexual intercourse making it an appropriate tool to measure the sexual functioning of women. This tool is beneficial for clinical diagnosis of female sexual dysfunction and can be used to identify signs and symptoms of female orgasmic disorder (FOD) and hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in women (Metson, 2003).
How? The series of questions focuses on six domains which are; desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain. Each of the questions is classified under either domain mainly focusing on the female experiences over time. For example, when it comes to desire, there are two questions which ask about the frequency of sexual desire in the past one month as well as the degree of sexual desire over the same time period. Thus, we can argue that each of the domains has been intensively investigated to come up with the most viable result to be used for the relevant clinical purposes. Besides this, the assessment tool is reliable and relevant since it can be used to indicate different variables in each of the tested domains. The different responses for every question have been assigned different scores which are consistent with the kind of feedback which is to be expected.

According to the CDC the HIV/AIDS reports, African-Americans are disproportionately affected by HIV/AIDS and disparity continues to widen. African Americans represent approximately 12% of the U.S. population, but they account for approximately 43% of HIV diagnoses. The African-Americans who die of HIV/Aids represents 44% of the deaths in the U.S. The worst hit category are the black women, the youths, gays and bisexual men. Dr. Donna Hubbard McCree (2013) notes that HIV/AIDS epidemics among the blacks results from factors including poverty, lack of awareness of HIV status, stigma that prevent the majority from seeking help, high rate of sexually transmitted infection, sexual networks, lack of access to adequate health care and lack sexual education among the most affected population.
Even though recent reports demonstrate encouraging trends of reducing HIV infections among the black population, new diagnoses still occur among the black gay and bisexual men. Therefore, even with continued intervention, disproportionate trends continue among the black population continue to be re.
sexual harassment at work place
The document discusses sexual harassment of women in the workplace in Asia. It begins by defining sexual harassment and explaining its prevalence in Asia, where many women face harassment but are reluctant to report it due to social stigma and fear of retaliation. Sexual harassment has negative impacts, lowering productivity and job satisfaction. While laws prohibiting sexual harassment exist in many countries, reporting is still low and harassment remains widespread. Effective policies include strong anti-harassment policies, workplace training, and protections for those who report harassment. Overall the document analyzes the issue of sexual harassment in Asian workplaces from various perspectives.
Sexual harassment and gender inequality in the labor market
Sexual harassment and gender inequality in the labor marketStockholm Institute of Transition Economics
Authors Olle Folke & Johanna Rickne
We study sexual harassment in nationally representative survey linked with register data,
combined with a novel survey experiment. Across the Swedish labor market, one sex has a higher
risk of sexual harassment from colleagues and managers than the other. In gender-mixed and
male-dominated occupations and workplaces, women have a higher risk than men, and men’s
risk is higher in highly women-dominated contexts. A hypothetical job-choice experiment with
vignettes for sexual harassment measures the disutility of this risk. Respondents have a large
disutility for high-risk contexts, described as having a harassment victim of their own sex, but a
low disutility when the victim was of the opposite sex. We argue that the lack of disutility among
the low-risk sex, coupled with information frictions, prevent economic compensation to the highrisk
sex. Wage patterns that would indicate economic compensation are also absent in data from
tax records. We conclude that sexual harassment should be conceptualized as gender
discrimination in workplace amenities, and that this discrimination reinforces sex segregation and
pay-inequalities in the labor market.Similar to How do we in the law profession change our workplace culture? (7)

The Rise of Christian Persecution In Islamic Countries
Christian persecution in Islamic countries has intensified, with alarming incidents of violence, discrimination, and intolerance. This article highlights recent attacks in Nigeria, Pakistan, Egypt, Iran, and Iraq, exposing the multifaceted challenges faced by Christian communities. Despite the severity of these atrocities, the Western world's response remains muted due to political, economic, and social considerations. The urgent need for international intervention is underscored, emphasizing that without substantial support, the future of Christianity in these regions is at grave risk.

How do we in the law profession change our workplace culture?
- 2. The first major shift in workplace culture internationally occurred in Hollywood with the Harvey Weinstein allegations.
- 3. In New Zealand, the legal profession is the first profession to have so much publicly front up to its culture. Russell McVeagh is just the beginning.
- 4. #metoo The Workplace Environment Survey carried out by the New Zealand Law Society this year found that 31% of women lawyers and 5% of male lawyers have been sexually harassed during their working life, with roughly half of these in the last 5 years.
- 5. #metoo 52% of lawyers have been bullied in the workplace. About a third of the bullies are women. 6% of lawyers in New Zealand are suffering frequent bullying now.
- 6. For the public, it's shocking - that those who are supposed to uphold the law so flagrantly breach it. For those in the profession, it's shocking that it's public, but it's not a surprise.
- 7. How do we in the profession start to correct this behaviour? We have to report it. 28% of lawyers surveyed had witnessed sexual harassment in their working life. Had they objected and reported it? Called out the offender? Did I?
- 8. How do we in the profession start to correct this behaviour? Changing perpetrators' attitudes is the long game. Everyone else saying "no" loudly and clearly is part of the short game. – Shelley Eden, partner at Sheiff Angland
