What is a rape culture?
Rape culture is a culture where the victim is
usually blamed for getting raped. People would say
why did they wear that dress or why did they go to
that place at night rather then punishing the rapist.
Which leads to sexually assault considering as the
norm.
Parts of rape culture
“As a culture, we still refuse
collectively to accept that most rapes are committed by ordinary
men, men who have friends and families, men who may even
have done great or admirable things with their lives…” – Laurie
Penny
Anyone Can Be A Rapist
-
The idea of “Gray Rape” - a term that was made to reduce
the importance of women being raped. They will just say you
were drunk so how do you know if you said yes or no.
• “No means Yes” - American law should clearly
state that if your partner say “no” then no means no and
if they say “yes” then yes means yes, so that it wouldn’t
be rape.
• “Victim Blaming” – Victim blaming is another
problem where people blame the victim because the
victim was drunk or they say that the guy is too nice
to do that.
• “Slut Shaming” – And there is “slut” blaming
the victim gets blamed as slut for dressing
inappropriately and this blame prevents people from
taking victims seriously.

The Unvictims
Had the 1993 rate held steady, about 9.7 million Americans would have been
assaulted in the last 20 years.
Thanks to the decline, the actual number of victims was about 4.2 million. In
other words, if not for the progress we've made in the last 20 years, an
additional 5.5 million Americans would have become victims of sexual violence.
While we should be happy that we’re making progress, we are still a very long
way from solving this problem. Every two minutes, another American is sexually
assaulted.
