Scottland Moves Forward With Anti-Rape Campaign Geared to Men

Fnally Scottland is doing it right with an anti-rape campaign that accompanies new laws stating sex without consent is rape. The campaign, “We Can Stop It” targets men, both hetero and homosexual.

This is the educational campaign we need in all countries, in our high school sex ed classes, and on our college campuses. I’m so tired of victim blaming and men thinking they have an inevitable right to have sex whenever and with whomever they want. We’ve created a culture that encourages boys to become men by having as much sex as possible as early a possible. That pressure increases the group mentality of gang rape, fraternity initiation rape, and tragedies like Steubenville. This is a small success, but very important because once you bring legal rights into a social issue our social fabric changes.
