Netizen explains rape to put an end to victim-blaming

  • Netizens slammed all who promotes victim-blaming in rape cases.
  • She explained that victims aren’t responsible for their bodies’ response during the attack.

Rape is one of the most sensitive issues in the society, not only because the act is morally and legally wrong, but also because other people thinks that sometimes the victims are also to blame.

Many people disagree on this matter due to a lot of reasons. Some say that their clothes are one of the contributing factors that trigger offenders to do such thing, while the others say that victims who orgasm or release body liquid during an intercourse enjoys the horrendous attack.

One of the concerned netizens on Twitter named @_clvrarose felt like this issue needs to end once and for all, which is why she decided to fully explain the grounds of rape, especially for those who find it hard to comprehend on a simple matter.

Read her informative posts below:

She explained that it is perfectly normal for a body to self-lubricate or have an orgasm to avoid the pain. However, it cannot be considered voluntary or enjoyable at all times.

Of course, not everyone will get what she’s been trying to point out, so she made it even simpler by comparing it to tickles.

 

Just because a person laughs when tickled, doesn’t mean that they enjoy being tickled. It is a natural reaction of a human body that nobody really has control over.

After her thorough explanation, she preached that people should totally think about what they say, especially when they are using statements that doesn’t actually make sense.

Moreover, she also gave her fellow netizens what the rape victims might have felt during the time when they were violated and sexually abused.

The people of the internet commended her for her bravery and for educating them, most especially the victims who feel frustrated when they body responded to the offender.

To sum it up, rape is a very complicated issue, but doesn’t mean that it is hard to understand. As long as the victim refused to engage in a sexual intercourse, yet the violator forced the victim, it can be considered as rape.

Also, people should try to be more considerate of what they say as they might offend the victims through their statements, whether they mean it or not.

Educate yourself.
