Identify modern advances in rape laws
What will be an ideal response?
Most states have removed the corroboration requirement. Corroboration requirements required rape victims to show evidence such as bruises, ripped clothing, and evidence of physical struggle. Rape Shield Laws have also been developed. These restrict admissibility of the victim's past sexual history at trial. The martial rape exception has also been abolished. At common
law, a husband who forced his wife to engage in sexual intercourse was not guilty of rape, which is no longer the case in the United States. Men are now acknowledged as potential rape victims. Today, rape is acknowledged as gender neutral.
