I'm not separating rape culture from the workplace, from the family, from sports, or from the government. I think we separate these things way too much. We live in a rape culture, period, and it is out of control in all of our sectors and all of our institutions. We just don't know it is or the degree to which it is, because women don't report. The conviction rate is under 1% for women who file those charges. It's the same with sexual harassment: when you do report, all kinds of horrible things start happening to you, particularly to children or very young women who report. You lose your job. That's a very likely outcome of doing that. For young girls who report that they've been sexually harassed at school or sexually assaulted, their lives are over. They are pretty much banished from the schoolyard because they have told. They usually have to leave school and go to another school.
