Rape Culture: 20 More Signs [View all]

http://www.nationofchange.org/2015/03/07/rape-culture-20-more-signs/



Rape culture is the “don’t drink because you could end up in a bad situation” lecture being given to women who are the victims of crimes, not the men who commit them.

Rape culture is talking about rape and having someone say, “Yeah, it’s happened to everyone you know.”

Rape culture is not having a discussion about pornography comprising 30 percent of Internet traffic.

Rape culture is rarely talking about how to improve many video games that objectify females, despite significant research by gamers like Anita Sarkeesian.

Rape culture is gamers threatening critics with rape and feminists with killing because, you know, the dehumanization of women in video games has no affect on them.
