A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Orifice: Women in Gynecology Textbooks
An analysis of 27 gynecology texts written over the past three decades reveals a continuing tendency to present traditional views of female sexuality and personality. Women are sterotyped as primarily wives and mothers and as having a lesser capacity for sex. This study, in the tradition of other studies of sex-role stereotypes, demonstrates sexism in our society

Overview of Women's Studies: Organization and Institutional Status in U.S. Higher Education
At the 1996 Program Administrators Meeting held at Skidmore College, I presented some of the results of an NWSA-authorized study of backlash against women's studies programs and departments and women's centers.1 Program administrators and chairs (hereafter referred to as administrators) perhaps will recall receiving a questionnaire from me administered through the Virginia Commonwealth University Survey Research Lab (VCU SRL).2 One section of the…

Convicted Rapists' Perceptions of Self and Victim: Role Taking and Emotions
This article is an attempt to bridge the gap between feminist structural explanations for rape and the social psychological mechanisms that make it possible for some men in patriarchal societies to feel neutral about sexual violence toward women. The concept of role taking is used to analyze the perceptions of self and victim held by 79 convicted rapists. Men who defined their behavior during sexual encounters as rape saw themselves from the pers…

Attitudes toward women, violence, and rape: A comparison of convicted rapists and other felons
Literature in the area of rape has been dominated by the psychiatric perspective leading to the view of rape as an individualistic, ideosyncratic and psychopathological problem. This leads to a conception of the rapist as a special criminal who is somehow different from his fellow prisoners. This paper proposes to study rapists as emotionally average men who have been socialized to view aggressive sexual behavior as appropriate in various situati…
Riding the Bull at Gilley's: Convicted Rapists Describe the Rewards of Rape
In this paper we argue that the popular image of rape, a nonutilitarian act committed by a few “sick” men, is too limited a view of sexual violence because it excludes culture and social structure as pre-disposing factors. Our data come from interviews with 114 convicted, incarcerated rapists. Looking at rape from the perspective of rapists, we attempt to discover the function of sexual violence in their lives; what their behavior gained for them…

Convicted Rapists' Vocabulary of Motive: Excuses and Justifications
This paper analyzes the excuses and justifications which a sample of convicted, incarcerated rapists used to explain themselves and their crimes. Excuses consisted of appeals to forces outside of their control which, the men argued, compelled them to rape. Justifications attempted to present their own behavior as situationally appropriate and, using a number of common rape stereotypes, to make their victims appear culpable. We demonstrate how the…
