Pervasive Thought

Nov 01, 2011 21:28

I've spent the entire evening reading articles about sex, sexuality and gender (again, instead of doing what I should be, which is--in different levels of importance--either homework or finishing up fic), and I came across a series of articles that really were eye-opening, because I've thought about the topic in an abstract way but never actually found something that fully articulated my thoughts, especially about how society has to change. And I'm really interested on your views.

So, this is what I want ya'll to do:

First, when someone says, "a girl was raped," what are the first few questions you think of?

Second, go read this absolutely gorgeous article and tell me what you think: of your questions, and how the article changed (or didn't change) your view of society, and if you would ask different questions after reading the article.

rape culture, this is why i love reading, fuck yes i'm a feminist
