Most rape cases go unreported and uninvestigated. There are a number of reasons: shame, unsurity, the victim doesn't want to go through the pain of an investigation, the victim doens't want to incur the wrath of their attacker, etc. I don't know if we'll see a trend of more rape cases being brought to trial or not.

I don't know if we're creating a victim-like culture. Rapes have been going on for ages and the victims, both men and women, just had to take it because often, in their attacker's mind, they did want it. They had no voice to speak back. Our culture is now allowing victims to have that voice.

Unfortunately, I think that more people today might be quicker to cry rape than before, especially in cases where it may be questionable, but people still need to be educated about it.

So anyway, back to Pledged. Is that Alexandra Robbins hot or what? Even with the wonky eye.
