Quote:
Rape is an assault against a person as a person. Rape is a dehumanizing and demoralizing act against an individual. Rape is about turning an individual into a nonperson, a piece of meat to be used and abused.
Rape is about abusing the power one person has over another, whether the victim is younger, weaker, incapacitated or even in custody. Anyone, young or elderly, rich or poor, male or female, healthy or ill, can be raped.
Rape is not just a women's issue. Some priests have sexually assaulted altar boys. Teachers have abused students. Parents, and sometimes grandparents, rape children.
....
Rape is not about sex; it is about violence.
