Stop Rape and Assault: And That's An Order! - 1 views

  •  
    The page preceding this states that one in three women in the military will be sexually assaulted during their tour of duty. This number is amazing to me and it makes me wonder what life is really like for women in the military. In such a male dominated institution, the women of the military have been silenced. NOW president Kim Gandy is calling for president Barack Obama to address this issue and see that it stops.

Love Your Body: Offensive Ads - 1 views

  •  
    These advertisements portray a particular type of woman. I found that while a few are directly related to violence against women, all of them are working to perpetuate a male dominated society and an unattainable body image for most women. I'd like to note that there is a link on the left side of the page that brings you to positive ads.

Hope for the Sex Trafficked - 1 views

  •  
    This site does a great job at educating in hopes to eliminate the existence and growth of sex trafficking around the world but specifically in the United States. The short clip emphasizes that this is a growing problem and that if it doesn't stop expanding that it will eventually hit home.
