Female Sex Offenders Years ago sex offenders were majorly male. In fact it was unheard of for a female to even be thought of as a sex offender. Today we hear of more women being arrested for molestation‚ incest‚ and other sex crimes. All too often teachers are being found guilty of having relationships with their underage students. Female sex offenders have not gotten as much attention as male sex offenders. It is because of this that the offenders cannot be studied as thoroughly as males.

Breaking social norms seems to be a common assignment among high school and college professors‚ as I have done this assignment twice already‚ with varying results each time. I hate making myself known to people‚ and often stick to the shadows to avoid drama or human interaction. Depending on who I am with‚ however‚ I can be ridiculous and outgoing. My focus then is shifted to making the other person laugh. Having fun boosts my confidence‚ which is why I chose my partner in crime carefully. An assignment

Sufferings of a Female Slave “Slavery is terrible for men; but it is far more terrible for women. Superadded to the burden common to all‚ they have wrongs‚ and sufferings‚ and mortifications peculiarly of their own” (Gates and McKay 294). Although male narrators like Frederick Douglas had touched on what slave women went through‚ the public had yet to hear it come from the mouth of a woman. Harriet Jacobs tells her story in Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl and brings attention to the problems

According to James Henslin‚ values are the standards by which people define what is desirable or undesirable to them‚ and norms are the expectations of what is “right‚” which develop from our own values.

All societies in the world develop their own expectations
