TW: DISCUSSION OF RAPE, RAPE CULTURE

feminist-space:

“A survey of 11-to-14 year-olds found: ·
  • 51% of the boys and 41% of the girls said forced sex was acceptable if the boy, “spent a lot of money” on the girl; 
  • 31% of the boys and 32% of the girls said it was acceptable for a man to rape a woman with past sexual experience;
  •  87% of boys and 79% of girls said sexual assault was acceptable if the man and the woman were married; 
  • 65% of the boys and 47% of the girls said it was acceptable for a boy to rape a girl if they had been dating for more than six months.”

Societal Attitudes Supporting Rape (via searchingforavila)

This is fucking scary, and it shows that we do live in a “rape culture” in which abusers and rapists have little idea that they are doing something wrong. My abuser didn’t….

In which we despair for the universe…

There are so many of these horrible survey results, and everyone should know them and then tell me there’s no such thing as misogyny and rape culture.

(via wretchedoftheearth)

These stats need to be reblogged all the fucking time because SHIT

What the fuck.

so, uh this is why we need feminism. because it’s okay for guys who “spend a lot of money” on girls to force sex on them, and because by extension it’s okay for relative strangers to take “less extreme” liberties with our bodies without our consent.

because it’s okay for gender policing to happen because omg if people transcend these boundaries it’s hard to know who to victimize. because it really shouldn’t fucking matter what gender people read you as (or if they can tell at all), you should be treated with just as much respect.
