There are many forms of partner abuse. There are also many reasons why women have difficulty breaking the cycle of abuse. As is clearly demonstrated in the video Ya no más, patterns of abuse vary from culture to culture. Indeed, in many cultures it is okay for a man to “discipline” his wife.Please take this opportunity to educate yourself further on issues involved in domestic violence, then use this Forum to expound upon some aspect of this phenomenon (e.g., different forms of abuse, why women stay, why men abuse women, a theoretical perspective on abuse, women as batterers, a perspective from a different culture, characteristics of an abuser, institutional reform to stop the violence, effects of domestic violence on children, counseling methods to end abusiveness, etc. etc. etc.).

Part 1 Assignment The Stories of Chuang TzuAs we learned with Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, philosophy has much to do with logic and argumentation to get to the truth about various issues we all face. Asian Philosophy also relies on logical reasoning as for example with the Nyaya school of Hinduism, and in China, The School of Names and the Mohists. But both the Greeks and the Chinese also harbor philosophers who believed that language gets in the way of thinking better. They used humor instead. The Greek philosopher who is a master of comedy and repartee is Diogenes, the Cynic. He used his quick wit to ridicule the mindless and arrogant, including Alexander the Great. The Asian master of wit and storytelling is the Daoist, Zhuangzi (sometimes spelled Chuang-Tzu). Zhuangzi is a master storyteller and he uses that talent to teach important moral and philosophical lessons. The video below (Flight from the Shadow) is an example of the type of teaching he engaged in. Our text offers three additional examples: Nie Que's conversation with Wang Ni; Huizi and Zhuangzi about gourds; the story of Cook Ding (sometimes called Butcher Ding); and the story of Wheelwright Pian. Even though the lessons are in story form, that doesn't mean that they are easy to decipher. One reason for this is that the stories probe deep into human nature and the essence of what we are as persons.So the assignment this week, while easy to read, takes some thinking on your part. Give a short synopsis of each of the four stories mentioned above. Then given what you learned about Daoism in the text, give your view of the wisdom Zhuangzi is trying to impart. What do you think he means in each case? And taken together what do you think Daoism is trying to teach us?Submission:Must be a minimum of 2 1/2 pages with standard 1-inch margins in Times New Roman or Garamond font. Must be double-spaced.Must address the topic of the paper with critical thought.Must include in-text citations and references in MLA style. Name, course, and assignment top left.Include a Title.Cullen Vance. The Stories of Chuang Tzu. EP 1: The Flight from the Shadow. YouTube. 16 June 2015. Part 2 ： Discussion The Vinegar TastersTopicWhat can the three great Asian philosophers tell us?There is an old story about the meeting between Confucius, Laozi, and the Buddha in which they all taste a bit of vinegar. Each of them reacts to the vinegar in a different way, and the way they do reflects their philosophy of life. From the video shown here and from the chapter reading, briefly explain what you understand to be their individual philosophy. Now imagine living a life that holds to their principles. Their claims are that to live in the way they suggest is to live a better, wiser life. Pick three ideas they express and discuss why you think holding to these principles might enhance and enrich your own life.
