Discuss the role that rape myths play in sexual assault.
What will be an ideal response?
Examples should include that the more strongly men accept rape myths, the higher the tendency that they will misperceive women’s attire and behavior as “asking for it” or misperceive their own sexual interest as “uncontrollable.” Rape myths serve to justify sexual aggression and the likelihood of future violence.
