Rethinking rape

This is an in-depth look at rape, particularly rape perpetrated by people known to the victim. In order to understand the high frequency of rape and its social causes, we must examine our cultural attitudes towards women, male/female relationships and rape itself. Six people of varying backgrounds, including a Rape Crisis Centre director, and a social psychologist, share their perspective’s on this topic.
