I have noticed, from the comments on several American news sites, that lots of people seem to consider rape to be part of punishment of state incarceration. Not that they say so outright, because that would identify them with the few barbarous societies where rape is in fact used as a mob punishment; instead they tolerate prison rapes, joke about it, and seem to relish the idea of convicts being raped. I think it is shocking and despicable that people joke about men being raped in prison; it should be every bit as abhorrent to the right-thinking person as a woman being raped in prison.
Comment by Anonymous on Boing Boing about the findings of The National Prison Rape Elimination Commission. And even though I’m not really loving the wording in the last sentence, I am agreeing with the entire sentiment. (via subjecttomeg) (via igather) (via katoleary) (via gauntlet)
