Quote
You have to tell. You said no. That's rape.""I can't. I said yes later.""I'm ashamed. Like it was something I did. Like I took advantage of how I looked. Like I made it too easy. I let him care for me and I let me care for him.

Of course false-rape allegations have happened. My friend Astra Taylor points out that the most dramatic examples in this country were when white men falsely accused Black men of assaulting white women. Which means that if you want to be indignant on the subject, you’ll need to summon up a more complicated picture of how power, blame, and mendacity actually work.(“Feminism: The Men Arrive”)
