This is horrendous. If there’s been a thousand in a decade, that’s a hundred a year, and over eight women a month being raped in the (supposed) Peace Corps. This whole thing should be seriously overhauled, yesterday.
8 a month eh, anyone know how many women volunteer?
1,000 haven’t been raped. If you read the article, 700 some-odd of them were groped, kissed, etc. The press likes to categorize any unwanted male attention as a sexual assault. By lumping all these actions together, they trivialize rape. I have a friend who is a missionary doctor in southwest Asia. She is careful in how she dresses and where she goes.
