Survey results from South Africa expose rape epidemic
Extremely disturbing survey results out of South Africa this morning, indicating that 25% of men in that country admit to having raped a woman at least once.
I was hit especially hard by this quote from the bbc article:
"...practices such as gang rape were common because they were considered a form of male bonding"
It has started me thinking about how this dimension of "male bonding" over sexual exploits still contributes to rape culture in this country...and around the world.
