Recently we just talked about the alleged gang rape at the University of Virginia. We talked about the sensitivity of the issue and how universities need to be more proactive to prevent these types of cases.
We have to acknowledge the fact that there are numerous of false rape allegations each year that make these cases hard to indicate if it is the truth or not; however, that does not take away from the fact that rape does happen. Rape is a huge deal.
Overall, it all comes down to the way women are objectified by society. Women are often held up to this idea of being sex icons for men, which is wrong. They are held to these standards that make men think it is okay to treat women this way. It is not something that can just be changed overnight. A lot has to deal with the way the media portrays women. It is important to treat each other with dignity.
Rape is something that can be prevented. It involves people being proactive and sensitive to the issue. What do you think?
