Its not a myth is all very true no means no
No.
Some educational establishments, businesses, political groups and other organisations have adopted a culture where rape is trivialised/not properly investigated or swept under the carpet.
Often with the traumatised rape survivor subjected to intimidation, wrongful hostility and abuse- instead of the rapist being brought to justice.

It's not a myth. In lots of american schools the prom queen gets raped by all the football team players and its not even a secret, most pupils know about it and nothing is done, i've seen a video where a girl explains that both her and her sister became prom queen and it happened to both of them :frown:. In lots of other environments rape is also excused and justifiable which is horrible.

If it's well known you'd think that would make girls reluctant to be nominated... Didn't the eldest sister warn the younger one?

Female rapists use drugs like Viagra to force an erection in the victim.

Really? I did hear they use drugs so that might just be a bad example on my part.
