Reposted by MichelleK.C. Clyburn, Author @kccomplainsalot.blacksky.app · 11ha key reason why rape culture persists is because men do not fear reprisals from *other men*. they do not expect other men to care if they raped someone. they do not expect other men to treat them poorly. they believe that most men will doubt a victim's story and demand evidence. 24824
