Homework due 10/6

In class we have been talking about social roles, specifically with regards to gender and race.  Society sends messages all the time about what our roles should be and how we should act.  Part of what we need to take away from this is that men and women end up experiencing the world in very different ways.

At the link, you will find a blog post entitled Schrödinger’s Rapist.  Please read the article.
Then please write an approximately 1 page response to it.  You should consider any or all of the following questions.  If you had a response that is not addressed by these questions, feel free to write that.

 How did this post make you feel?
Did this post resonate with you for any reason?  Why?
Were you offended by this post in any way? Why?

If you disagreed with any of her points, why?

It does not have to be typed, but it should be written neatly and clearly.  It is worth 10 points.
