Are you tired of finding towels on the bathroom floor? Have you ever walked through a supermarket with a thirty-five-year-old child who wants only the most expensive things on the shelves? How do you go about making men understand the difference between helping out with the housework and doing it? And what about violence? 'Help! Im Living with a Man Boy' has forty-one practical scenarios that many women will identify with immediately plus suggestions for dealing with these situations. This book is about relationships. Its overall aim is to encourage women and men to look more honestly at the way they relate to each other, and to strive for a personal maturity that will allow each of them to enter into the give and take that constitutes relationships based on genuine love, respect and equality. The focus is on mens emotional maturity and the harmful and destructive behaviour which usually accompanies such immaturity. Betty McLellan is careful to point out, that this does not describe all men. Some men have achieved maturity and are contributing in a mature way to their relationships. Others, she admits have a long way to go.

They call them women of love, but the lyrical beauty of the term has a hidden dark side: a workforce of very young girls tasked with feeding their families by offering up their bodies for sale. The girls belong to the Nat which includes some of Indias very poorest. For centuries, the Nat men have sent their daughters, sisters, and wives into sex trafficking. Baby girls are welcome arrivals in these towns of love -- everyone knows that one day, they will be the breadwinners. As a Nat, you are untouchable, despised by Indian society. How would anyone dare break free of this legacy of prostitution, when it also would mean being shunned by your entire family? Tamanna dares. As a nineteen-year-old, she breaks free and runs away. But it costs her dearly -- she is forced to leave her five-year-old daughter Rupa behind with Jabbar, in the house with the big gleaming knife. Eight years later, Tamanna knows that time is running out for Rupa. She demands help, both from the police and from the underfunded aid organisation Pukaar. And who could look a mother in the face and argue that saving her daughter isnt worth risking everything? With insight and brutal honesty, Anne Ch. Ostby paints a vivid picture of some of the worlds most vulnerable women and children. And the women of love do exist in India today, in the northern state of Bihar, where the author has travelled extensively and come to know them. Town of Love is a raw and gripping story that is guaranteed to leave you breathless. With a Preface by Ruchira Gupta, founder of the Indian NGO Apne Aap on which Pukaar is based.

Klappentext: Sexualitätsdarstellungen, zumal pornographische, fallen bei Frauen schnell unter Zensur und Selbstzensur. Trotz derartiger gerade in der Frauenbewegung verbreiteter Vorbehalte untersuchen Hofstadter/Körbitz, wie filmische Szenarien von Sexualitätsdarstellungen in der modernen Version des Video-Heimkinos auf Frauen wirken. Entstanden ist ein differenziertes Buch, in dem Frauen über ihre erotischen Phantasien und sexuellen Wünsche nachdenken und ihr Verhältnis zu Pornographie jenseits von Verboten und (Selbst-) Zensur klären. In anschaulicher Darstellung kann der Prozess der Auseinandersetzung von Frauen mit Pornographie in seinem bewussten und unbewussten Dimensionen nachvollzogen werden.

How can information technology (IT) paradigms and design processes be studied from a gender perspective? What does IT design look like when its construction is informed by gender research? Though gender research and computing science seem like two separate worlds, this book proves how inspirational a confrontation and combination of those worlds can be. A deconstructive analysis of advanced fields of computing shows the multiple ways in which software design is gendered and how gendering effects are produced by its use. Concepts and assumptions underlying research and development, along with design tools and IT products, teaching methods and materials are studied. The book not only offers a gender analysis of information society technologies, it also shows practical examples of how IT can be different. A gender perspective on IT design can serve as an eye-opener for what tends to be overlooked and left out. It yields innovative ideas and high quality software systems that may empower a large diversity of users for an active participation in our information society.
