Write a research paper on the Bill Clinton political sex scandal that occurred with Monica Lewinsky.
In writing your essay, consider the following questions, and organize your essay to address each:
- Use your introduction to give a brief description of the scandal. Who were the people involved, and what happened?
- Who was the person in office with the political power? Was is a man or a woman? What was the politician’s class, and how can you tell?
- What ended up happening to the non-famous person? Were you able to find out anything about him/her after the scandal died down? What was it?
- What ended up happening to the politician? Is/was he still in office after this scandal occurred?
Conclude your essay with a discussion of what you noticed about what the scandal revealed about gender and power. Do you think the outcome would have been different if the genders of the people involved was reversed? Why or why not? In what way?
