| Summary: | The aim of this project paper is to look at every topical issue which
causes public concern ie. violence against women. Violence canes in many
forms either mental or physical. Coirmon physical violence are rape,
incests, sexual assaults and battery. Mental violence are the mental
torture that the women has to endure in the hands of men.
The writer also attempts to look at reasons behirxJ the increasing number "of
violence aginst women. The way women are portrayed over the mass media is
one of the chief courses leading to this violence. This factor is
contributed by the attitude of security towards women. Society viewed a
woman only as a wife, mother or servant of men. When a woman gets raped she
is ridiculed and society usually puts the blame on her for being raped.
Conservative society viewed sex as something shameful and should not be
discussed in public. As a result girls of tender age are ignorant and do
not know what acts and attention showered on them are right or wrong. |
