Rape Culture

My name is Terrance Ó Domhnaill, and I am back again to your village with more news from the outside world. Come sit with me around the fireplace once again as I bring you something a wee bit controversial today. It is a dark, cold depressing day outside where I am and maybe a fitting day for today's subject. It started out when I read a couple of upsetting news articles about the statistics of rape in the United States and I broadened it out to a world-wide atrocity with more articles from around the world. Stay tuned as I bring it all to you front and center. If you are a woman, this should scare you. For men, this should bring shame on your heads for letting this happen. Due to the sensitve nature and some graphic descriptions of rape, I have set a restriction on this for 18+ adults only.
