The survey aims to collect some fresh information about what women think and know about rape. It is aimed at any woman, whether or not you have experienced rape, as we want to know what you think on this topic. We are using the word rape to mean unwanted sexual acts that you are willing to tell us about. The questionnaire is limited to women because the Campaign to End Rape focuses on the rape of women and girls and not on the rape of men and boys. This is not because we don’t care about the rape of men, but simply because we believe the issues are different.
The information that we collect from this survey will be used to draw attention to women’s ideas about rape, what we want, whether we can find what we need after rape and what is happening in the law, from women’s perspectives.
Please take this survey – it only take a few minutes – before 20th November 31st December 2009 – https://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=_2fRvhqFXsq3NAiQBSuUa2ow_3d_3d
The Campaign to End Rape is a national coalition of feminist activists from Justice for Women, the Rape Crisis Movement, YWCA, and other individual activists, feminist lawyers and academics, which aims to do the following:
* To campaign against rape and sexual violence perpetrated against women and girls by men.
* To challenge the women blaming and hating myths that exist about rape and sexual violence.
* To challenge misogynist media reporting of sexual violence.
