Reviews with content warning for Rape - Not That Bad: Dispatches from Rape Culture

Methodical inclusion of a variety of voices as it pertains to sexual violence, eplxploitation, exploration, and adativity. Layered and dynamic, as well as diverse, points of view and moral compasses. The anthologies in this book provides a lot of teaching points and does a phenomenal job of rejecting mindless rumination without purpose. Life's not always fair. At one point, the palpable frustration and certainty told by one of those authors had me screaming alongside her in shock and dismay. I was reminded of just how broken and misogynistic the therapeutic world can and has been, which can lead to haphazard interactions od damaging interventions interspliced with effective/hope-giving counseling. This book was uncomfortable but really an amazing/expansive read.

ok obviously this is about rape culture. so it was very difficult to read. i think this is a one essay a year type of book, not an all at once.

So important. I wish I could make everyone who doesn’t understand or take rape culture seriously read this. It took me a while to get through because it is very difficult and triggering, so proceed with caution.
