We viewed this video in my deviant behavior sociology class. It absolutely shocked me! To see women treated so horribly IN PUBLIC! Most of the footage is from a Gay Rights rally in NYC's central park. The men in the video are adopting a group think mentality and believe that they can act however they wish. They sexually assault a huge number of women. The video compares many of these men to ones we see in hip hop and rap videos. It goes to show that the media and society drill into people's minds that women are sex objects and men are the possessors. That they can act as they wish and should act aggressively and sexually towards women. I was absolutely appalled at the footage in the documentary and immediately though of sharing it on my blog.
I remember this footage when it happened, but the commentary in the documentary is very insightful. the images in videos are shockingly similar.
