I have been having a lot of thoughts about writting about the current political state but it seems over done. Than again I was thinking of writing about rape and male dominance from the early ages of the bible until now. With references and comparisons of the different time frames.
Help!!
" rape and male dominance from the early ages of the bible until now. "
that is one big mouthful, sisabonga.
perhaps it would be better to cut it into more manageable slices. and focus on one of those. it's difficult to know what to put down when you must write and nothing comes to mind - i'm a great believer in lists to yourself. so i suggest you cut the idea into slices, either time-related, or cultural context, or continental - surely all dominance was not the same around the world? - or in terms of treatment - focusing only on books, or movie, etc. or rock music. it certainly perpetuates the idea of male dominance.
(i once was going to write a sort-of sci-fi story about women scientists on an all-female-inhabited planet who decided to nip one arm off one of their X chromosomes . . . but what did i know about chromosomes?)
anyway, when you have your list, questions will come - for example: why the bible, why not other religious foundations in other cultures as well? ideas may follow. search terms will come. perhaps surprises, as well, as you dig into the middle ages, a time during which european women had more autonomy than is generally assumed.
in any case, here's luck to you.
Rape and male dominance.
Gender inequality, today, remains the number one problem in social relations. It is the catalyst that "snowballs" into other social problems: interpersonal violence, conflict and war.
