Debunking the "1 in 4 women are raped" myth.

freebroccoli:

Also, are feminists against murder jokes, e.g. “you got murdered in that game!” or “Man, that test was murder.” I’m pretty sure murder is worse than rape.

This is frighteningly offensive, ignorant, hurtful, and harmful.

Not only is the majority of rape unreported, I would propose that the majority is unrecognized. How many women are taught and believe that they deserve, should expect or accept the treatment they receive? The lucky ones realize that what they’ve experienced is rape and get help. The lucky ones often aren’t even sure they’d like to keep living, so…no, I don’t think murder is worse.

Assholes.
