Document Summary
Sample questions: the official version of law (ovl) claims that all members of society are equal and treated impartially before the law. Kramar readings, the intersection between gender, sexuality, and the law is much more complex. Discuss how the ovl is actually unequal and partial. Use examples from the busby and jochelson and kramar readings in your answer: karen busby (2014) discusses sexual violence towards women and the attempts of the law to address the problem. Discuss five ways the official version of law combines with societal rape myths to reproduce gender inequality in the law. I don"t know if these qualify as the 5 but i basically wrote down any reference in the reading that was related to ovl; here"s what i got: Ovl has two important principles : criminal convictions are extremely serious, state, especially police, should be restrained from using coercive tactics during investigations.
