The Campaign to End Rape has put together a survey to find out what women think and know about rape. It is aimed at any woman, whether or not you have experienced rape. They are using the word rape to mean unwanted sexual acts that you are willing to tell them about. The survey is open until 20th November.
The informati...on that they collect from this survey will be used to draw attention to women’s ideas about rape, what we want, whether we can find what we need after rape and what is happening in the law, from women’s perspectives.Read More
