Micro-Study & Fieldwork Report (For My Clarification)

      I would first like to start of by restating what my topic is and the question. My topic surrounds the view of misogyny. The focus of misogyny is very misconstrued by people. People know different elements of what misogyny is, but they don't know of the word itself. Misogyny happens all over the world.
       My specific research instrument is a questionnaire. I specifically chose to do a questionnaire because to me it seems more valid. I am specifically going to only give it out to females. I feel this gender in particular will benefit my research from a realistic standpoint. It will make my paper stronger because it is evidently particular to the media's view on society.  My questionnaire will raise attention on how there is no correlation between anything between men and women. My method is to go around Southern Vermont Campus and see what females think about my questions. I am very interested to know more about how they feel about misogyny. It will show proof that females choose to be misogynistic against their own kind, themselves.
     I want to talk to females specifically because misogyny is really based on women. I want to know their feelings behind this. I want to know in depth what are their standards of living in a world where many people may be biased. It is extremely important for me to know what women think because it will make my paper better and also become an insight for me on how the world may be changing and progressing toward being more sexist or not. It is just a thought for me.

Fieldwork Data Results

     As I continue to work on my research project I notice how much work, effort, and time goes into it. I realize that I have to have a narrow topic to research so it is on point. But, I also noticed that having different strategies and plans make my research process easier. I learned about different strategies and plans to help me for this project like interviewing, surveying, and questionnaires. This will help me now and in the long-run for my project on misogyny.
Questionnaire
*How would you describe misogyny? Why?
*Do you feel females are misogynistic to one another? Why?
* Do you feel jealousy or hate is a form of misogyny?
*Do you feel women inflict on one another because of their beauty?
* In the media, women may reveal body parts or can be extremely over sexy, do you think that is being misogynistic?
*In this day and age, do you think women are more misogynistic than men?
*Do you think women give men the right to be misogynistic?
