Considering 'Women's Issues' at Harvard

The article reviews Against Rape by Andra Medea and Kathleen Thompson, which redefines rape beyond violent attacks to include everyday interactions that objectify and violate women. It argues that rape stems from societal sexual patterns and attitudes, challenging the view that rapists are deviant. The author finds commonality and recognition in a specific experience the book highlights where an 18-year-old college student is raped by a fraternity brother.
