    Rape law also “[assumes] that women lie about their nonconsent to sexual activity for various reasons” (Levit and Verchick, 3911), thus giving the accused much more power than the accuser. This considerable power imbalance further complicates an already-sensitive area of law, and stands in stark contrast to other standing laws, like sexual harassment-related holdings, which instead favor the accusers over the accused (Berk lecture, 10/24). Why have these contradictory methodologies? Why place undue suspicion on people who are most likely hurting and…

    Accompanying the resurgence of popular ‘feminism’, the discussion of rape and sexual assault in places of work, education and duty have been brought to the table for awareness and reform. In many cases the justice system works against victims. Too many stories tell the events of detectives and district attorneys inappropriately favoring the accused and not attempting to investigate the claim of the victim. Further accounts of colleges and universities not complying with regulation to investigate all assault allegations and report felony charges to the police are prevailing as pressure by donors to maintain a pristine reputation dominates judgment. The term ‘rape’ is often substituted with the phrase, “It was a misunderstanding.”…

    Over the past decade, sexual assault has become very topical and newsworthy. The spotlight has become brighter with what is seemingly a constant stream of reports on college campuses and churches across the country and throughout the military. Thanks to a renewed effort to create awareness, legislation (Title IX) and more aggressive prosecution, women (and men) have become more comfortable reporting such abuses. One ugly theme with respect to sexual assault, abuse, or rape is the misconceptions and stereotypes that it carries. It was somehow the victim’s fault.…

    Victims of rape are sometimes led to believe it was their fault that the horrific crime occurred. This is utterly disgusting to even try to pin the blame on the victim. Victims of rape are not at fault. A person's attire, looks, alcohol consumption, sexuality, gender, and/or race does not give anyone permission to take advantage of them. There is no excuse for anyone to commit such a despicable crime.…

This led to perpetrators committing sexual assaults six or more times. Note that, men were assaulted too but they were afraid to report the assaults more than women.

    The cultural construction of rape, or rape culture, is a somewhat misunderstood term in mainstream society. Many people shy away from the expression because it seems at first glance to demonize all men as evil predators. In reality, however, rape culture refers to a much broader social phenomenon that addresses both men and women. In an article for the Globe and Mail, for instance, Jordan Venton-Rublee defines a rape culture as “the environment that puts the onus on the victim, not the perpetrator”. Marshall University Women’s Centre also addresses the concept on their website, establishing that while rape culture does largely refer to victim blaming, it also can be seen more broadly as “an environment in which rape is prevalent and in which…

    When american culture thinks of rape, women are immediately the victims that come to one's mind.
