Rape is an act of violence not sex, an act of power and control, humiliating and degrading. It affects all women. It affects all men. It is a community issue.
Rape is about hate, humiliation, and degradation. It is an act of sexual violence. The crime of rape pervades our society. Our culture creates and maintains an environment in which rape becomes an extension of normal acceptable behavior.
RAPE IS A HUMAN ISSUE... WE ALL NEED TO START TAKING RESPONSIBILITY!
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Listening to your heart is not simple. Finding out who you are is not simple. It takes a lot of hard work and courage to get to know who you are and what you want. -Sue Bender
