When we use violent language to characterise the act of sex we normalise violence in sex 👏
’, widely used by feminists and activists worldwide, is a passive construction. The perpetrator is absent, leaving only the victim present; there is no one committing the act of violence. The result is a shifting of accountability from those perpetrating the vast majority of violence onto the group who are overwhelmingly the victims of violence. Here, victim-blaming is subtle yet profound.
The media is also notorious for spinning language to shift the public's perceptions. This can be seen in how rape cases are presented and how sexual predators are portrayed, with victim-blaming featuring heavily in media narratives and headlines.
