[Serious] PSA: Rape Apologetics

[John 6IX Breezy]

This cultural shit is all based on religious principles. 

Feminists, such as Sandra Bem, attribute what you described in your initial paragraph to androcentrism—the privileging of males and the male experience. I think it would be more accurate to say that androcentrism can infect religion like it can society, rather than the reverse relationship you're suggesting. Consider, for example, that androcentrism can be removed from religion with relative ease, as in the case of woman's ordination, but that removing religion from society does not put an end to androcentrism. Hollywood is regarded as a secular environment, it often clashes with traditional Christianity, yet you can find androcentrism there: movies are often directed for the male gaze (a trope associated with objectifying or sexualizing) rather than the female gaze.
