If someone doesn’t like someone else, they simply don’t hang around each other. However, in some situations and cultures there is less mobility, so enemy relationships can develop with repeated exposure to those people you don’t get along with. What situations might increase the likelihood of developing an enemy and how having an enemy might lead to violence or aggression? One example of a situation where enemies might form is the workplace, where you typically don’t get to choose your colleagues.CyberbullyingDiscuss the impact of cyberbullying today. What experiences with cyberbullying have you encountered or heard about? What are some factors that make cyberbullying more damaging than face-to-face bullying? Discuss how cyberbullying can be reduced.Sexual JealousyDiscuss sexual jealousy. If a man is aggressive in a fit of jealousy, why do people excuse his behavior? Why do people get more lenient sentences for “crimes of passion” than for crimes which were premeditated? Is it excusable if a man becomes aggressive for jealous reasons because he cannot help himself? How does intention play a role in the U.S. judicial system, and does this excuse some types of violence? ***This can be adapted for sex or gender, however you perceive it.RevengeDiscuss our tendency for revenge when we have been victims of aggression. How can this be an evolutionary adaptation? Maybe revenge lets others know that if they harm us, they will likely encounter harm themselves. What will it take to just turn the other cheek and not react?
