Exemplars #1 Detailed Explanations of Evidence
It is not enough to include a quote.
Rather, you need to:
Introduce one of the author’s claims which will be demonstrated by the quote. This usually takes 1-3 sentences.
Explain both what it is demonstrating and why that is a relevant piece of evidence that supports the author’s thesis. This part usually, this will take anywhere from 2-4 sentences.
Statement
Exemplar #2 Detailed Personal Response
Your personal response should discuss both the article itself and how you feel about it or the things it makes you think about. You might want to ask some questions. You might want to discuss a real-life example that demonstrates something in the article. Or you might want to hypothesize about something that is stated in the article.
SMART Notebook
Gender in the 21st Century
The world is a better place that at the start of the 20th century
• Spread of education and literacy
• Progress in science and medicine toward disease
• Freer exchange of information
• Women’s issues are being discussed
– Female genital mutilation
BUT … Inequalities Persist
In no developing region do women enjoy equal rights with men – Some lack rights to own land or conduct business
Gender discrimination has raised female mortality rates in some regions
Female-run businesses tend to be less well funded than those run by males
Despite increases in women’s education relative to men’s, large gender wage gaps remain
Women are underrepresented at all levels of government
Defining Gender Equality
Gender refers to socially defined roles and socially learned behaviors and expectations associated with females and males
Men and women are different biologically
All cultures use these biological differences to create expectations about what behaviors and activities are appropriate for males and females
What does the World Bank say?
Gender equality is defined in terms of equality under the law, equality of opportunity and voice
Education
Female primary and secondary enrollment rates and years of schooling have risen over time
Increases are slow and uneven in poorer regions
Health
BUT
often have less nutrition in developing countries, frequent and complicated pregnancies, inadequate prenatal and obstetric care
“missing” number of girls in Asia (prefer boys)
Violence
HIV/AIDS
Men and women commonly perform different tasks and work
Women tend to earn less than men, with a wider earnings gap in developing countries
SMART Notebook
Tough Guise
Emasculating Truth
Costs? violence against women
Expectations of masculinity changing
Costs? Confusion about identity and what it means to be a man
Codes and gender displays in media reinforce role of women as weak, submissive, subject to violence etc.
Second Sources: School Databases!
Silent Suffering: Men as victims of domestic abuse
Collecting Secondary Sources
Most domestic violence committed by both men and women
If only one partner commits violence, wife-only violence up 2X husband-only violence
Violence against women one of largest human rights issues in world
Many stats on violence
Other types of violence i.e. genital cutting, honour crimes etc.
Large numbers of native women missing in Canada

Gender-based violence is one of the largest human rights issues in the world today. While statistics indicate that men are more likely to be victims of certain types of violence, women remain the most frequent target of violence based on gender.
Thesis
Vote With Your Feet
1. In this activity, you are going to explore your own views and beliefs about gender-based violence.
2. Class to stand in the center of the room or somewhere where they can form a line. I will call out a statement. You are to step to the right if you agree with the statement or step to the left if disagree.
Statements
In some circumstances, women provoke violent behaviour.
We can’t judge gender-based violence if it occurs in a culture where it is normal.
Men sometimes have a good reason to use violence against their partners.
Violent behaviour by women against men is not the same as violence against women.
Gender-Based Violence is violence involving men and women, in which the woman is usually the victim. It comes from gender “beliefs” and “roles” as well as from unequal power relations between women and men.
Violence is specifically targeted against a person because of his or her gender, and it affects women far more than men.
It includes physical, sexual, and psychological harm. It includes violence perpetuated by the state.
- Adapted from UNFPA Gender Theme Group, 1998
What is GBV?
Intimate partner violence is common across the world:
A WHO study conducted in 10 countries found that between 15% and 71% of women experience some form of IPV at some point in their lives; in most countries prevalence estimates range from 30% to 60%.
In most countries 20-33% of women reported IPV within the past 12 months.
Sexual Violence
The WHO study found that 6% to 59% of women reported experience of sexual violence at some point in their lives, with most sites within the 10% to 50% range
1% to 44% of women experienced sexual violence in the 12 months prior to the study
Health Consequences
Percentage of women who report health outcomes as a consequence of acts carried out by their husbands or partners
What is Misogyny?
Misogyny is defined as a dislike or hatred of woman and girls.
It can be manifested in many ways, such as discrimination, sexual objectification, and violence.
Television and Radio
Some of the most popular, mainstream prime-time programs now traffic in images so gruesome that until recently you would only have seen them in theatrical movies like “Halloween” or “Hannibal”……And body parts, lots of body parts.
New Gore Values, Newsday, November 3, 2002
The Parents’ Television Council logs instances of scenes of graphic torture or sadism on network television. Between 2000 and 2002, that number almost doubled.
The Washington Post named the 2002 TV season, “Die! Women, Die!” to reflect excessive violence against women.
Nip and Tuck
This plastic surgery series focuses on two male doctors who perform surgery on women, many of whom they have had sex with.
In one show, a man sews together a cadaver sex toy, starting with the decapitated head of his sister.
That Same Season……
A stay-at-home stripper has her throat slit while performing via webcam, women are paralyzed by spider venom, unable to fight back against a rapist who then murders them, a woman is violated by aliens, then found naked in a swamp, and a woman’s head is found inside a newspaper box….with a snake coiled inside her mouth.
What do these scenes tell us about woman?
Directors of the CBS Show, “Criminal Minds” tried to defend a storyline where a would-be used-car buyer end up in a cage with her eyes and mouth duct-taped, awaiting execution. Their response was that all of their show’s demonstrate crimes that are based on real ones. It just happens that the crimes are usually against women.
WWE – it’s just honest fun, right?
WWE star, Road Rage Al, carried around a female doll’s head with the words “help me” scrawled on the forehead.
His toy set was sold in Wal-Mart in Canada and the U.S. until enough people protested
Vince McMahon, CEO of WWE, forced Canadian Trish Stratus to undress in front of the crowd, crawl on all fours and bark like a dog….. All to apologize to him for something.
Does she look happy?
In another match, Triple H chases his wife around the stadium, and drags her by her hair….while the crowd is cheering. She shows up at the next show in a neck brace. Triple H tells her he hopes she has one in every colour because he’s going to “make sure she stays in a neck brace for a long time.”
What does it say when the previous Premier of Ontario appears at a press conference to support WWE? Does he support what they do in the ring?
Generation M – Misogyny in Media and Culture
2009 Cannes Film Festival
“Misogyny – hatred of women – was insidious in the official selection at Cannes this year…It was rare to find a movie where the central female wasn’t playing a whore , a nut case, a victim or all three.
…an appalling drama by Filipino director Billante Mendoza that shows the kidnap, rape, torture, murder and dismemberment of a prostitute”……this drama won for Best Director.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Billboard for “Captivity”
Billboard for “Captivity”
- shown in high-traffic areas of Los Angeles -on top of 1400 taxi cabs in New York City Film produced by After Dark, and distributed by Canadian firm, Lionsgate Films
Joss Whedon, creator of the TV series, Buffy the Vampier Slayer said….
“..the ad campaign for “Captivity” is not only a literal sign of the collapse of humanity, it’s an assault….it “is part of something dangerous and repulsive, and that act of aggression has to be answered.”
Gender-based violence is one of the largest human rights issues in the world today. While statistics indicate that men are more likely to be victims of certain types of violence, women remain the most frequent target of violence based on gender.
