I don't think anybody is saying: "accept that there is a rape culture and all the accompanying beliefs." There are societal norms in place that permit rape and make it easier for sexual assault to occur. I think you accept that basic premise. From there, all that is required is reflection. ie If that is true, what are the possible ramifications for victims living within that cultural situation.
No, I don’t think that society permits or condones rape. Or makes it easier to be raped, other than perhaps current attitudes towards casual sex is perhaps aiding it.
RR, we just had over half of the GOP state that they believe Brett Kavanaugh should still get to be SCJ even if he DID commit sexual assault. That’s a problem that is staring you directly in the face. That is how a society implicitly condones rape. Are you going to choose to see it, or cover your eyes?
