Sex, Rape And Shame, Katharine K. Baker
Sex, Rape And Shame, Katharine K. Baker
All Faculty Scholarship
This article explores how shame sanctions may be able to change the social meaning and decrease the prevalence of date rape. Arguing that men's tendency to date rape is fostered by social norms that treat sex as an accomplishment and, importantly, an accomplishment that enhances a man's masculinity status, the article suggests that one way to curb date rape is to curb the extent to which it is associated with masculine behavior. This strategy is necessary because the high premium society places on masculinity and the cultural confusion about when date rape is morally wrong and how it is different …

The Diminishing Sphere Of The Cooperative Virtues In American Law And Society, Ana M. Novoa
Faculty Articles
Exploration of destructive developments in American law and society show that family law is completely askew. Although family law deals with the most intimate and basic personal relationships, it applies a legal process based on autonomous individual public and private economic rights to those intimate relational realities. It is a hallowed expression of male virtues and a paradigmatic example of the use of the law to protect vested interests and shape society, rather than a reflection of reality.
The split between the private/family/female and the public/business/male spheres of the nineteenth century created the separation of competitive attributes, virtues, and vices …

Law Faculty Articles and Essays
FIRST PARAGRAPH: In the short amount of time that we have together today, I would like to accomplish three tasks.
