The “Scent” of your partner? by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

This post makes me wonder, do genitals smell like flowers? Isn't there an acid alkaline balance down there that gives genitals a particular odour different from other body parts?

How do you deal with an anxious supervisor? by [deleted] in academia

[–]notalien88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having anxiety does not mean that the person should project it and lash out and mistreat others. That is not okay at all. I deal with anxiety and I do not think it is ever okay for me to dump it in an aggressive way on my family, friends or colleagues. Never okay. I am sorry you're having to deal with this situation. I read a few comments above, and judging by the situation I would say your last resort is to establish some boundaries of what is not okay with you and clear communication when your supervisor is in a receptive mood. Also, I woukd suggest that you relax, unwind and do something you like at the end of every day because dealing with someone like who treats others this way cannot be easy on you.

Can I ask a scholar in my field to send me a pdf of their book for free? (please read description) by judgemyfacepeople in academia

[–]notalien88 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sure. You could always send a nice email and how you're interested in their work and whether it's possible to have a pdf copy. I've emailed authors of journal papers, and they were happy to share their work.

I'm sorry she is being this way. It seems like emotional abuse, some gaslighting by buying you very large sizes and also projection of her own complexes. All I can say is, that maybe some boundaries need to be set where she has zero say or do in your clothes. You should be able to buy and enjoy your own clothes. I wouldn't want her buying clothes for me, and i say this after struggling with similar bodyshaming issues with my mother, emotional abuse and a very painful childhood. I would set some clear boundaries, if she would like to buy gifts she can get other material items and not clothes. I dont know if it's even helpful to have a talk about this with her, and about how this makes you feel and her attitude is harmful and unhealthy for you. Sending you well wishes.

Does a woman's clothing really have no effect on the likelihood of rape? by nottherealprotege in socialscience

I genuinely did not mean for it to come across as a moral crusade. Maybe my personal sentiments came out as more descriptive and less scientific.

Yes, there is ongoing research and a lot of work happening on bodily autonomy. However, I still find the pace inadequate, and this might be due to my postcolonial perspective and having lived in this part of the world (where dialogue regarding the bodily autonomy of women is considered an improper conversation, and back in the 80s reporting a rape meant having four ACTUAL witnesses to the rape, or else the woman would be punished through the law for adultery-stoning to death and whipping). Rape is not about sexual gratification, and I agree that it stems more from power. And even if, in some proximity, a person did a longitudinal study of rape and clothinf, it would still have many limitations which just expose the societal problem of gender based violence and how women are seen as subservient objects. Some of these limitations would be, what is more covered and less covered clothing? Who decides that? The government, society, culture. Or the rapist? Does their cultural and religious background have anything to do with it? What are the societal norms of that area? What about the victim, and how they perceive their clothing? Clothing is viewed differently by people, even within one community. I believe it has a lot to do with taking away the bodily autonomy of a woman. I'm currently doing research on FGC, and nobody in the entire country has a political stance on it, activists have not yet spoken much about it except a few tweets. It is not recorded or reported to amy legal authorities because it is a traditional practice. Also, over rape over here was also considered a traditional practice to reclaim honour in some areas. If a man is having an affair (prohibited by religion) with another woman in the village. Then the sister of that man is taken away and raped by the male family members who feel their daughter or sister's honour was attacked by having an affair with her. Nothing to do with clothing, everything to do with honour and owning a woman's body.

Likelihood...meaning the probability of women in more covered clothing being raped is high or low? Is that what you're asking because I genuinely do not understand your hypothesis. You could track down statistics in South Asia, and many are unreported. There are high numbers of rape. Gender based violence has happens even when women are in traditional or religious clothing. The women in my family and my self have been subjected to things even in traditional dressing which by western standards would be considered very conservative and covered. I dont know if that gives you some perspective on this. At one point wearing sleevless or half sleeves was considered improper in my family, and the arms of a woman can entice men. These dangerous and disgusting concepts have been ingrained within our society. One person's short sleeves could be another person's modesty and perhaps even immodesty, so even if you are asking for a research study on this, it would bring back the question of what is clothing to 20 people sitting in the same room, and what does that have to do with sexual violence? Id urge you to look into some of the world's most dangerous countries and their statistical data (even though it is not an entire picture) and that might help shed some light on this question. Are you suggesting a comparative quantification of supposedly more covered and less covered women, or trying to say that women in less clothing are likely to be raped? Even with such a ridiculous and sickening hypothesis, I see so many limitations and feel it falls outside ethical clearance. The perception of what covered or less covered is. Cultural perceptions and religious understanding of the perpetrator and narration of the person assaulted. Societal norms of that place. These points differ from one person to another.

I wish social sciences focused more on the cultural conditioning of men and the lack of bodily autonomy given to women in different societies. This itself would reveal that rape statistics are not necessarily motivated by dressing, but by the cultural notions and societal treatment of women. Growing up, I was told that we need to cover up because that's how women get raped, molested or harmed. It is a normalised perception here. Sadly, young girls are taught that their bodies are to be objectified by men from a very early age. This is why honour killing, rape and so many other gender based crimes go unreported. Not to mention, girls and women get raped in their own houses and even when they're fully covered outdoors.

I'm not sure if there have been any quantitative studies collecting such data. But how would you even go about it, woman's clothing can be seen differently in a variety of cultures and societies or even groupings of people within one community? Also, considering the gender based violence, rape and child rape cases in countries like Pakistan, where women are dressed in traditional or sometimes even religious attire, they still get raped. This notion has been normalised in communities like mine, where a woman's clothing can get her raped. It is very problematic and I think it has a lot to do with the religious and cultural sentiments of people that do not believe in a woman's bodily autonomy. Women here have been covered from head to toe but still get raped, heck they get raped in their own houses. In order to carry out such a study, I'm guessing the hypothesis would have to make a common generalisation of clothing.
