I would request you to keep things simple while writing an essay. Most people can't write academic article level or Dawn level arguments in their essay provided that we are given a limited time of 3 hours. You don't need to refer to specific theories, or give references from gender studies and just need to state your opinion which doesn't necessarily have to be related to course contents in gender studies. Also please be more detailed if I misinterpreted your issue.

I have shared it in my profile but its better to share the essay here as well since many people can pitch in as well and give their suggestions and please refrain from jumping to conclusions.

Dear.. I believe no one should ever go against the topic until and unless it ends with a question mark. Look, essays topic is a phrase or a statement that sums up ur essay in the fewest possible words. If the statement of the essay says one thing and the body contradicts it, it would make no sense at all. However, in case the statement is a question then you have both options: going against it, or justifying it. I hope it makes some sense to you.

Just compare the essay-topic-statement with a window. If the window tells you that you are going to have a
view of a beautiful landscape... Then u expect it to be a beautiful landscape not a marshy place(which is if you contradict the statement).

^ This may be true in most cases but not all. Like "Punctuality is virtue of bored" or "Woman thy name is frailty". For such essay, you have to go against them because rationally if you go for them then you won't have solid argument points. I have seen essays written by CSPs, who have gone against the topic.

You are right in saying that many people write against the topic-statements like "frailty thy name is woman," and get some marks as well. One thing is that You can expect to go away with that only when examiner does not follow the standered procedures. Also, such topics do not mean that you can not write in their favour. If you are familiar with parliamentary style debates you can very well comprehend my point. Another thing is that you can not always get shelter under your comfort zones... Sometimes you have to go to the discomfort zones as well. I believe examiner wants you to be in your discomfort zone in such kind of topics.
Let me explain to you in the inverse manner of why one should always go in favour of the statement-like-topics. You must be familiar with the practice of giving a paragraph a suitable topic. Now tell me, do we give a paragraph a topic which evidently contradict the arguments presented in the paragraph, or the one which most clearly and closely precises the arguments in the paragraph. I hope I did not mess up things. Thanks.

Yes, I see your point. I guess to be on the safe side, one should not go against the topic. Unless the topic is a question and not a statement.
