Rape Culture has been described as an environment in which rape and/or sexual violence is normalized and/or excused in popular culture. Rape culture is perpetuated through the use of misogynistic language (this means language directed at the dislike or hatred of girls, women, or things considered as feminine), sexual objectification of other’s bodies without their consent, and the glamorization of sexual violence; thereby creating a society that disregards sexual rights and safety.
Examples of Rape Culture include:
Blaming the victim (“They asked for it”)
Minimizing sexual assault (“It is not “legitimate” rape”)
Jokes about sexual assault
Tolerance of sexual harassment
Inflating false rape report statistics
Publicly scrutinizing a victim’s dress, mental state, motives, and history
Refusing to investigate sexual assault
Scholars have concluded that rape culture effects all genders, races, sexual orientations alike.
