I doubt that any form or amount of coersion could change this, for their attitude.
is too defensive. They would be distrustful of anything a young man might do or say. In order for this.
type of woman to have sex with a man, she must first truly desi!.
re to, and all women, in my opinion, are capable of being this strong and self-reliant. .
Coersion, as I see it, is a practice as common for most people as brushing their teeth before.
bed. I think that we are all guilty of being coercive, for in our society coersion is the ladder on.
which we stand to reach up and get that which we desire. We coerce others to see things our way, do the.
things we want to do, and to aide in making compromises that will be found acceptable to more than one.
party. Others coerce us for the same reasons, as well as many more. Everyday, we are exposed to an.
average of over seven-hundred advertisements which attempt to cajole us into buying a new product or.
service(often through sexually oriented advertising), or to try out an old product again. Coersion as I.
see it, and not as the dictionary defines it, is any attempt to persuade a person into doing something.
they may not ordinarily do. For that matter, it is even possible for us to coerce ourselves. We.
second-guess our first instincts, we buy act impulsively, and we are all capab!.
le of wanting things passionately. It is not irrational to expect that sex is one of those things. .
I do believe that phrases such as "verbal rape," "date rape," and "acquaintance rape" do diminish.
the substance and impact of the word "rape" itself, and I feel that they should not be used in these.
forms. I feel that the word "rape" is designed to carry a powerful and shocking image, as is does as.
defined at the beginning of this work. When attached to other words such as "date," and "verbal", words.
that carry much different connotations and images, the impact of the word "rape" diminishes.
