Rape is a form of assault where one individual forces another to have sexual intercourse against that person's will. It may be defined as forcing a person to submit to any sex act, and is generally considered one of the most serious sex crimes, as well as sometimes very difficult to prosecute. Sexual violence can also be a war crime under international law. Consent may be absent due to duress arising from the use, or threat, of overwhelming force or violence, or because the subject is incapacitated in some way such as intoxication or being underage. In some cases, coercion might also be used to negate consent.

There is no universally accepted distinction between rape and other forms of assault involving one or both participant's sexual organs. Some criminal codes explicitly consider all kinds of forced sexual activity to be rape, whereas in others only acts involving penis penetration of the vagina. Many restrict rape to instances where a woman is forced by a man. In recent years, some women have been convicted of raping men; this is classed as either rape or sexual assault. In some jurisdictions, rape may also be committed by assailants using objects, rather than their own body parts, against the sexual organs of their target. [1]

The rape of women by men is the most frequent form of the assault, with an estimated over 90.5% of rape victims being female.[2][3] Female-male rape is the second most frequent form of assault. Most female assailants convicted of raping men are convicted of rape and/or sexual assault. It is thought that female rapists who rape other women are almost never caught or convicted[4] and research on female rapists is rare.[5] Male-male rape is less common, with less than 9.5% of victims being male, primarily in correctional facilities.[3]

In almost every legal jurisdiction, children are considered unable to consent to sex with adults and thus the sexual abuse of children is considered to be a form of rape

  • @bonesawXtroll I'm surprised because white people do this all the time. I'm in the states and its always on the news, especially when dealing with child molestation so go figure.

  • @thoughtcrime1933 so this doesn't happen in western culture? its very prevalent here so don't forget that

  • why am i not surprised the rapist is black

  • Why should this be shocking? Anywhere you have "black rule" you find a crumbling infrastructure, demoralized public and crime of all sorts OUT OF CONTROL!
