In this groundbreaking work, Martha Knuthbond provides a clear legal scholar's perspective on the major social challenges of sexual assault and harassment, drawing on philosophical thinking and detailing how pride and greed can Leads to male objectification and dominance over others. She also sharply points out the flaws in the accountability system that result in some big figures never being able to escape justice; and how the victims' desire for revenge ultimately distorts the goals of justice.


Regarding accountability for sexual assault and the legal recognition of sexual harassment, the legal profession has long had its own clear historical context. Nasbang carefully combed through these contexts, and then faced head-on three "fortresses of arrogance" that are still unbreakable: the judiciary world, art and sports. She demonstrates the proud privilege of the legal intellectual community, the narcissistic behavior in the arts that is never truly punished, and the toxic masculinity and attendant corruption in American college athletics; she discusses some How men sexually abuse and exploit others because of their "natural entitlements." In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, many people have put in various efforts one after another, some successful and some failed. This book also explains this in detail and puts forward solutions and impactful strategic suggestions.


Nasbon's purpose in writing this book is to explore the consequences of "arrogance" through her expertise in legal and philosophical analysis. This book also emphasizes the techniques needed for justice, how to distinguish various differences in detail, and the various strategies required to bring the warring parties to a place of justice and peace. Therefore, this book will have many technical (legal) above) analysis, not just emotional feedback and feeding. Nasbon believes that punishment can only achieve its goals if it is grounded in law, when nuances are seen and precisely calibrated to the seriousness of the crime.


In this era of #MeToo’s ascendancy, the punishments and accusations in many cases may be too harsh, and mass shaming replaces procedural justice and produces a large number of “#MeToo”-type narratives, which often end up with a sense of victory in punishment. Give up on reconciliation. As a pioneer in feminist philosophy, a music connoisseur, and a sporting event enthusiast, Nasbon's perspective sees the importance of structural issues and reconciliation. This book offers a hopeful way forward, opening up the possibility of true accountability without malice and forgiveness that is on target and truly unapologetic.
