Extremely difficult subject matter approached with thoughtfulness and kindness. I appreciate that the author discusses communities that are often neglected in these conversations, such as sex workers and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

Rape culture. The totality of all the big and little things we do, say and believe that ultimately lead to the conclusion that it's okay to rape. Perhaps not any one of the little things: serving your son first like a good Indian mother doesn't mean you condone rape; making fun of lady drivers doesn't mean you condone rape; saving for your daughter's dowry doesn't mean you condone rape; saying "boys will be boys" on the playground doesn't mean you condone rape. But each of these chips away at women's and girls' self-respect, and gives boys permission to feel a little more entitled, a little more important, a little more as though they have a free pass to maraud through the world and take without thinking.
