Question 3

Feminist scholars, according to Lorena Garcia in &#34;'Handlin' Your Business': Sexual Respectability and Peers,&#34; have argued that young girls' sexual agency is limited by what kind of dichotomy?&#10;A) the male-female dichotomy&#10;B) the good-girl-versus-bad-girl dichotomy&#10;C) the heterosexual-homosexual dichotomy&#10;D) None of the above

Accepted Answer

Feminist scholars have argued that young girls' sexual agency is limited by the good-girl-versus-bad-girl dichotomy. This dichotomy reinforces the idea that there are certain ways in which a "good girl" should behave, including being modest, not showing too much skin or being too flirtatious, and not being sexually promiscuous. This idea perpetuates the myth that women who dress and act a certain way are "asking for it" or somehow deserve to be sexually harassed or assaulted. It also creates social pressures that can limit young girls' ability to express themselves sexually in safe and consensual ways.

Question 4

In &#34;The Migration of Entertainers to Japan,&#34; Rhacel Parre&#241;as argues that &#34;a culture of ______ shapes the migration of women, resulting in the state's impulse to support their social and moral values with protectionist laws.&#34;&#10;A) strict sexism&#10;B) hegemonic feminism&#10;C) benevolent paternalism&#10;D) None of the above

Accepted Answer

Question 6

In &#34;The Sex Tourist, the Expatriate, His Ex-Wife, and Her 'Other': The Politics of Loss, Difference, and Desire,&#34; Julia O'Connell Davidson defines &#34;sex tourist&#34; as &#34;tourists who enter into some form of _________ exchange with women, men or children resident in the host destination.&#34;&#10;A) sexual-economic&#10;B) sexual-cultural&#10;C) sexual-political&#10;D) All of the above

Accepted Answer

Davidson specifically defines sex tourism as involving some form of economic exchange, which is consistent with the term being commonly understood as a type of tourism in which individuals (usually from more economically privileged countries) travel to other countries to engage in sexual activities in exchange for money or gifts. While there may be cultural or political aspects to this exchange, it is primarily driven by economic motivations. Therefore, "sexual-economic" is the most accurate term to describe the exchange at the core of sex tourism.

Accepted Answer

This is particularly relevant for transgender inmates, who may face further deprivation and harassment due to their gender identity.
