There is always an abuse of power in sexual violence, and considering more than half of women victims of rape reported being raped by an intimate partner (and 40.8% by an acquaintance*), relationships with abusers are often complex, confusing, and layered.

It is devastating that Tara Reade’s credible allegation against Joe Biden hasn’t been investigated.

This is especially grievous after numerous prominent democrats stated in no uncertain terms that #MeToo allegations should be thoroughly investigated.**
