It 's Been An Honor

This cruel act has claimed the life of women who were mothers, aunts , a special friend etc continuing to ignore this matter is like saying the victims does not matter and that the abusers should continue to be protected. As a society we need to stop making the victims feel ashamed to speak out , they did nothing wrong they’re survivors and unfortunately not many survived the battle to tell their story because of their untimely death it is time to wake up and make a change for

When in emergencies kids usually turn to their electronics to contact others for help. Students want to have reassurance and know that if any inconvenience occur they can reach their parents or others as soon as possible. Most parents and children like to stay in touch with one another at all times. Especially if there's a change of plans after school or if there's any accidents that appeared and need to be evacuated immediately. Aside from, rivals say that students are most likely to lose their cell phones. In the meantime, students would be responsible and put it in a safe place at the appropriate time. For these reasons, cell phones should be tolerated on school property in cases of

Being victimized is not a part of ordinary life and to be a victim yourself is excruciating to go through. Victims Mariatu Kamara and Ishmael Beah were both children that were affected greatly from the

This essay will discuss the ways in which gender influences patterns and processes of victimisation, identifying key victimological perspectives and typologies. It will consider key authors in the discipline and offer definitions of terms used. The essay will identify three issues which may impact on gendered victimisation before acknowledging the argument that radical victimology offers a more balanced approach to gendered victimisation than positivist or critical viewpoints.

I stand as an outsider looking into a very complex cultural and economic system. I try to understand the perspective of these women but it is impossible because I have not walked in their shoes. Many are resigned to their fate and I wonder if my reaction would not be the same if I were put in a situation in which there were no other options. These women cannot, for whatever reason, be angry about the humiliation and abuse that they suffer, so I feel an obligation to be angry for them and make their plight known to the world.

In our day and age the word honor can mean many different things to different people. The general definition of honor is, a person who is respected, has integrity, is fair and just, hard working, kind, of good moral character, and loyal to the end of time. A person who holds this position of high esteem knows what is being asked of them, and take their service to heart. I feel that honor must be earned and that while not a fragile thing, it can be lost just as easily. We, as Americans, show honor to those who have served, or are currently serving our country. We award them for giving of their time and for sacrificing their comforts to protect all of us. In the past we, as Americans, would teach our children to show respect (honor) to their

In the past few years cell phones have become an object of need rather than want. Everywhere you look people are on their cell phone either texting, calling, ‘facebooking,’ or emailing. The cell phone is the smallest most convenient connection that nearly everyone has. The idea, of course, is fantastic.The ability to communicate wire-free from anywhere is perfect. Cell phones have their advantages, like most digital devices. Parents have the luxury of calling up their children to know that they are safe, but, what are the consequences of that cell phone?

However, in Saudi Arabia killing people in the name of honor will not be considered as illegal and therefore it will not be counted as a crime, an evidence of this is that a women 45 years old originally from Sri Lanka was “being stoned to death after being convicted of adultery in Saudi Arabia - while the man she was caught with faces 100 lashes” (Wheatstone, 2017). Moreover, another evidence which supports this notion is that a Saudi Arabian woman from Riyadh was “woman was murdered by her father for chatting on the social network site Facebook” (Correspondent, 2017). These demonstrates that not all crimes are considered as deviant

Mass Rape is an atrocious violation of person’s human rights. Testifying in an international court can be extremely dangerous and a horrific experience for many people. Whether it is being humiliated and degraded or having ones life threatened , a survivor of rape should always have the option of testifying against their attacker. The international criminal justice system has greatly improved since the Nuremberg trials when rape survivors weren’t allowed to testify or be in court because the courts did not “want a bunch of crying women in the courtroom” .

Many children have found themselves to be victims of cell phone abuse. Students often use cell phones to spread rumors and misinformation. This misinformation can be difficult for the victim to digest and can be quite stressful for a young child to comprehend. This act of misinformation has resulted in the death of several children after their private information and unsubstantiated information had been spread with the use of cell phones. State and local officials have begun to develop laws that establish strong consequences for the spread of personal information. These consequences include fines, jail time and possible sex offender status.

There are still countries who do not have laws against rape and marital rape, which reinforces how women are view as secondary citizens. “There are 127 countries that still don’t have laws against marital rape – 2.6 billion women live in a country where their husbands can legally rape them” (Logan). Imagine being a women who is in a marriage, who is legally allowed to be raped and degraded by their husbands with no justice by the law. “In countries such as Libya and Afghanistan, female victims of rape are punished by law, and sometimes even maimed, disfigured, or killed by a family member for “dishonoring” their family name” (Logan). Which means even if the woman tries to run away from her husband, or even if she is able to escape her husband and divorce him, her family could disown her, or if captured by officials- or even her family, she could be killed for it.

I plainly comprehend what you are talking about when it comes to mother fiqure and suicide bombers. However, in these United States, we don't see women as suicide bombers, women are view as nourishing and care taker of families. In any case, in forein countries women are not respected to an higher level.

In some societies, women in the judicial process have very few rights that are the same as men, and their punishment seems to be much greater. Treatment by the Taliban in Afghanistan, and by other groups such as the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood all contribute to how women are treated legally. Zohreh Arshadi asserts that in countries such as Iran, "The Islamic punishments have encouraged a culture of violence against women...The fact that men receive a lighter punishment if they commit a violence against women undoubtedly encourages such violence. We saw how women could be killed with impunity during alleged adultery. Stoning to death for adultery, although technically admissible for both sexes, has also been carried out mainly against women” (Arshadi 2012). It is in countries such as Iran, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and some non-Middle Eastern countries where the Qur’an is taken as a literal word and law, and there is constituted into actual state law. This means that certain texts from the Qur’an are used to treat women violently. For example a passage in the Qur’an states: Hadith Muslim (4:1982)  The Prophet said, “I saw Hell also. No such (abominable) sight have I ever seen as that which I saw today; and I observed that most of its inhabitants were women. They said: Messenger of Allah, on what account is it so? He said: For their ingratitude or disbelief

One particular article was about a girl. Eight years old, she was just beginning to grow. That is until she was raped by a neighbor and taken into police custody for protection against her parents, who want to kill her because of her dishonorable impurity (The Oppressed of Afghanistan). In a way the girl was lucky; most cases of abuse and honor killings are usually not reported. Sometimes it’s not even illegal.
