How do these sentences relate to slut shaming or each other?
Hi folks, it seems to me that this article is missing some 'transition statements' or was rearranged unfavourably. At least I find it hard to understand how these sentences are connected to each other or the subject:
However, Kennair et al. (2023) found no signs on a sexual double standard in short-term or long-term mating contexts, nor in choosing a friend, ... Shouldn't "However" imply a some contradiction to the statement before? WHich part of the previous paragraph should this contrast?
The social movement falls into the category of feminism. Which social movement? This raises controversy... What part of the previous sentence raises controversy?
associated with the double standard.... One paragraph claims there is, one paragraph claims there is no double standard but they both don't say which behaviours they are referring to. For the first one, the abstract says "sexual double standards when choosing a mate based on their sexual history". For the second one, I haven't found the source.
Literary characters who were killed or died by suicide as a result of their sexual choices include.... Maybe someone can add some words on how this list relates to slut shaming.
second wave feminism contributed significantly to the definition and act of slut-shaming. The paragraph just describes some aspects of the sexual revolution, but it doesn't explain the two mentioned contributions.
In 2014, The Pew Research Center reported the most common targets of harassment on the Internet are often young women. ... This and the next paragraph mention many forms of harassment but not how they relate to slut shaming.
Maybe I missunderstand the title "Media", but I expected to read about how the subject is represented in media. First, second and fifth paragraph of this section don't seem to fit in.
I'll not cover the remaining chapters hoping that you understand what I mean. It seems like some sentences were added without connecting them with the remaining text. As English is not my first language and I don't know the topic I don't feel confident to fix it. Entinator (talk) 17:18, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
