Topic : Honor Killings

Answer 1

@Vocaloid

I guess I'm just having trouble with the introduction paragraph and what should go in it. Otherwise, once I have an idea of what should go in it, I should be good typing away

Answer 2

@Shadow

Answer 3

I don't want to put any information in it that I should save for my body paragraphs

Answer 4

Your introduction paragraph brings forth the topic that you are talking about, as well as your argument regarding it. Additionally, the first sentence ought to be a hook, providing an intriguing pull towards the rest of your paragraph and essay.

Answer 5

@zarkam21 Then just briefly acknowledge the sources that you'll be talking about.
Example:

Brian Ford, a professor in theology at Stanford did groundbreaking research on the origins of honor killings.

Answer 6

And you only need a couple of sentences.

Answer 7

It has become a trend these days that murders are done of females by the males in their family for the sake of honor. Honor Killings are not just a Muslim problem, they are the most extreme form of targeted violence against women. This type of trauma violates their rights as human beings. The type of torture that women are put through is absolutely disgusting. The research done by Phyllis Chesler for the Middle East Quarterly has done revolutionary research regarding this horrible phenomena.

Answer 8

so my research paper has to highlight the trauma that women face. Do you think my intro ^ highlights this

Answer 9

@Shadow when you get a chance please

Answer 10

"murders are done of females by the males"

This is grammatically incorrect. Murder is not of, or derived from the female, it is done to-> indirect object

murders are done to females by the males

Males murder females

Answer 11

"Honor Killing" -> Honor killing

Answer 12

No need to capitalize killing

Answer 13

"The type of torture that women are put through is absolutely disgusting."

This sentence is running heavily into subjective. Not worthwhile in my opinion. Also, killing someone isn't torture. Unless you're talking about the fear women have of honor killings and having to subscribe to certain beliefs.

Answer 14

Rest isn't that bad.

Answer 15

I have to incorporate trauma in some way and I'm not sure how

Answer 16

I'm having trouble trying to organize my body paragraphs
