TW: Rape

A study has found that 27.6 per cent of South African men aged 18-49 have raped a woman.

In "Why, When and How Men Rape: Understanding Rape Perpetration In South Africa", men listed boredom, a sense of sexual entitlement and punishment as motivation for rape.

🧵⬇️
The men confessed to multiple rapes, adding that sometimes they raped women in groups as "entertainment".

A third of the men interviewed experienced no guilt and consequently had not experienced any form of punishment or consequence for their actions.
In August, over 80 men were accused of gang raping eight women and the armed robbery of a video production crew in Johannesburg.

According to the police, the gang forced their way into the video shoot and raped eight women aged between 18 and 35 from the cast.

Here are 5 reasons that line isn't a compliment.
1. Beauty with Brains: "You can be beautiful. You can be smart, but not both."

That line presents that for a woman to be both, she has to be so mind-blowing and EXTRA.
