Unhealthy relationships and harassment can take many forms, including physical, verbal, emotional, and sexual abuse, as well as bullying, discrimination, and harassment based on factors like race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. Bullying involves cruel behavior that causes harm between individuals who know each other, often involving a power imbalance. To prevent harassment, individuals should ask the harasser to stop, avoid the situation, and get help from trusted adults. Witnessing harassment without intervening encourages continued abusive behavior.Who are our clients

Domestic violence against men is a serious issue. The document discusses several cases in Britain where men have been physically abused by their wives through actions like being scratched, kicked, bitten, or attacked with bottles and knives. A refuge organization reported that some abused fathers had moved into their safe house with their children to escape abuse that for many men had lasted an average of six years, and included being beaten with iron bars or threatened with knives. While the actual number of abused men is unknown due to underreporting, studies estimate that in the U.S. roughly 300,000 to 400,000 men are treated violently by their partners each year.Genre violence

Women often stay in abusive relationships due to fear of retaliation from their abuser if they leave, economic dependence on their abuser, and influence from social and cultural norms that promote women as subordinate to men. Some of the specific reasons given are fear of threats from the abuser, lack of financial independence, abusers controlling women's thoughts, cultural expectations that wives obey their husbands, influence of family values, and lack of awareness of options available.Abuse against women

An abusive man will use tactics like dominance, humiliation, isolation, threats, intimidation, denial and blame to exert power and control over a woman. He will make decisions for her, insult her to undermine her self-esteem, cut her off from others, threaten violence if she disobeys or leaves, and blame her for his own abusive actions. The goal is for the woman to feel worthless and powerless so she remains dependent on the abuser.Gangs

The document summarizes the 2006 video game Bully. It discusses that the game follows a teenage rebel named Jimmy Hopkins who attends the fictional Bullworth Academy. As a student, Jimmy can interact with other students and teachers at the school and in the neighboring town. While the game includes some violent elements like a crime system, the makers deny it encourages violence and say it is meant to be an amusing look at school life and teach players how to stand up to bullies. However, some critics argue the game could influence young people's perceptions of violence and cause them to respond violently to bullies.Acknowledging Male Victims of Domestic Violence - Weinberger divorce family l...

Bullying involves using force or threats to intimidate or dominate others. It can occur in various contexts such as cyberbullying, disability bullying, and school bullying. Bully-victims, who are both bullies and victims themselves, are more common than thought. They may bully others to cope with abuse they experienced at home or from siblings. Being a bully-victim can lead to greater psychological stress, trouble fitting in, struggles in school, inability to manage emotions well, and aggressive responses to stress. Parents should watch for signs in their children like somatic pains, losing possessions, bruises of unknown origin, not wanting to socialize with friends, and resisting school as potential signs of being bullied.Abuse and Harassment

Some dominant American values mentioned are individuality, freedom, equality, democracy, and achievement. It also outlines four dimensions identified by Hofstede as impacting culture: power distance, uncertainty avoidance, individualism vs collectivism, and masculinity vs femininity. High power distance cultures have a large gap between those with and without power while low power distance cultures value equality and independence.Bell hooks where we stand-class matters

This document is an introduction to a book about class in America. It discusses how class has become an unspoken topic in society, yet the gap between rich and poor continues to widen. The nation is becoming more class-segregated, with the poor isolated in poor communities and the rich living separately behind gates. While many citizens want to believe the US is class-free, this is not the reality. The introduction calls for an open dialogue about class to understand how it intersects with issues like race and gender.Victims of Virtue

The document contrasts traditional Victorian values with modern values, noting how people of tradition are often marginalized. Victorian values included a strict moral code, Christian beliefs, hard work, and loyalty, while modern values emphasize appearance, wealth, borrowing, and distrust. This decay of values has led to a society where families, children, and the elderly are disrespected, and virtue is not respected. However, the document argues that being virtuous through respect, understanding and diversity actually improves society's health, trust, and productivity.No fair treatment based on human values.pptx

The Link Between Masculinity And Social PrejudiceJonathanHunt

This document summarizes a presentation about the link between masculinity and social prejudice. The presenter witnessed a group of men harass and threaten a gay man at a bar until he left. To understand this, the presenter interviewed "Mr. X", a 20-year-old man from a rural area. Mr. X defined masculinity based on strength, sports ability, and drinking large amounts. He looked down upon less masculine traits. Mr. X learned prejudice from his family and friends as a way to fit in, rather than from hatred or fear. While progress has been made, the presenter believes discrimination remains a tradition for some New Zealanders to uphold masculinity.Chapter 10 Social Class In The United States

White privilegeKayden Johnson
油
Kayden Johnson explores the concept of white privilege in American society in a paper for their First Year Seminar class. While acknowledging that as a white male they have not directly experienced racial barriers, Johnson recognizes that looking at how other races are affected shows some truth to the idea of white privilege. White people are able to go through life without facing racial obstacles that can prevent economic or academic success as minorities such as Black and Hispanic people regularly do. White privilege means white people experience everyday situations, like shopping or interacting with police, in a more neutral way while minorities often face negative reactions. Though white privilege cannot be fully removed, steps can be taken to promote fair and equal treatment of all races without advantages based on skin color.Cultural Diversity & Bias, Prejudice, & Discrimination

1) Corning, a US glass manufacturer, and Vitro, a Mexican glass company, formed a $130 million joint venture in 1992 to produce cookware.
2) While the new product was initially successful, cultural differences in management styles between the US and Mexican companies led to conflicts that caused the partnership to dissolve in 1994.
3) Factors like centralized vs decentralized decision making, risk tolerance, and views on competition and loyalty contributed to clashes that made the joint venture unsustainable.Corning Vitro

The Corning-Vitro joint venture between American company Corning and Mexican company Vitro failed due to cultural differences in management practices. Corning had a decentralized, risk-taking culture while Vitro had a formal, hierarchical culture. Corning encouraged competition and individual rewards, while Vitro focused on cooperation and group rewards. The cultural clashes led to communication issues and misunderstandings. After two years, the $130 million venture was dissolved and the companies now simply distribute each other's products. The failure showed the importance of understanding cultural differences before entering joint ventures.1920S Gangsters

Capone's gunmen included Jack McGurn, who planned the St. Valentine's Day Massacre, and Sam Giancana, a triggerman and bootlegger.
