Only 16 states have no statute of limitations for rape and sexual assault (Filipovic, 2016, p .A23). The Bill Cosby case is

Rape myths are an extremely active concept in society. Over time, the same rape myths have been recurrently applied when the concept of sexual assault arises. In John Hamlin’s (2001) study he defines rape myths as prejudicial outlooks on sexual assault which effectively downplay its severity and discredits the complainant. Hamlin states that “[rape] myths exist for many historic reasons which include inherited structural conditions, gender role expectations, and the fundamental exercise of power

assumed hypersexual and licentious ways. A Mississippi defense attorney summarized this viewpoint well in an 1859 court case in which an older enslaved man was being convicted of raping an enslaved girl under the age of ten. He said, “The crime of rape does not exist in this State between African slaves...their intercourse is promiscuous” (Sommerville, 2004, p. 65).

The Steubenville and Glen Ridge rape cases are two very similar cases. The perpetrators were football student athletes with promising futures and the victims were teenage girls whose capability of consenting to the acts done to them were questioned. One of the victims was seventeen-years old and had an intelligence quotient of 64 and the reading comprehension of a second grader. The second victim was sixteen-years old and was publicly assaulted while she was completely intoxicated. This paper will

21 | Page Preventative techniques/penalties for rape By Tyrese Hamilton March 14, 2017 Mr. Wilson I.

consent and reinforces rape culture is when one of the models is laying on her stomach and a very small stop sign is displayed on her bottom (3:47). This symbolizes that her ability to say stop to Thicke’s implications and his desires is so small that it’s almost insignificant.

There are many examples present throughout history, especially in the new constitutional era, such as fees must fall. In this essay I will consider this concept of civil disobedience, especially in a South African context as well as considering a quote by Jurgen Habermas in an article by William Smith titled Civil Disobedience and

Mayella power because she is female, and has an advantage over Tom Robinson. She can get away with saying that Tom raped and beat her, even though he did not, because many people would believe her, and since males are usually the people accused of rape. In society, females are hardly ever associated with raping someone, which is why it was believable that Tom raped her, instead of it being the other way around.

promotes rape culture in our society. Rape culture consists of misogynistic language, victim blaming, and anything else that involves degrading women. This issue in our society is thought of as inevitable and it cannot be fixed.
