O presente artigo se dedica a observar o momento subsequente à ocorrência de um episódio de violência sexual praticado contra uma mulher. O estudo busca refletir sobre as categorias acionadas para narrar a pessoa que sofreu violação, bem como suas possibilidades de agência no que se refere à constituição de sua autobiografia após a efetivação do dolo. Para tanto serão apresentadas as seguintes questões norteadoras: É possível pensar a respeito desta mulher sem necessariamente evocar a violência por ela sofrida? Como reconhecer a dimensão do trauma sem reforçar a possibilidade de estigma? Como falá-la? De que maneira conseguimos ouvi-la? Observaremos, desta forma, o Estado - a partir da dimensão jurídica -, o papel das mobilizações feministas na construção dos embates sobre o tema, bem como as práticas de si experimentadas por algumas destas mulheres a partir de suas expressões comunicacionais.The woman in derivation: rape, State, stigmas and vocalized resistanceAbstractThis article is dedicated to observing the moment after the occurrence of an episode of sexual violence against a woman. The study aims to reflect upon the categories used to narrate the person who was violated, as well as their possibilities of agency with regard to the constitution of their autobiography after the act of intent. Therefore, the following guiding questions will be presented: Is it possible to think about this woman without nec-essarily evoking the violence she suffered? How to recognize the dimension of trauma without reinforcing the possibility of stigma? How to speak of it? How do we listen to it? In this way, we will observe the State - the legal dimension -, the role of feminist mobiliza-tions in the construction of conflicts on the subject, as well as the practices of themselves experienced by these women based on their communicational expressions.Keywords: Rape; victim; stigma; autobiography; woman.

Memoir is a literary work genre that belongs to the subgenre of autobiography. Most of the memoir showcases the writer’s particular moment of life, rather than the reels of their whole life. Chanel Miller, for example, showcases her experience during the aftermath of rape in her memoir, Know My Name. Various definition of rape has one thing in common, which rape is something that happens despite the lack of consensus and that creates stress after it happens. Stressful encounters require a coping strategy to conquer them. This study tries to analyze coping strategies on Know My Name memoir because it is due time for us to recognize how rape has influenced the victim’s life to provide better care both physical and psychological wise for rape victims and, even better, to formulate better law to protect the victim. Using descriptive study, the important features were found as Channel Miller’s emotional reactions to choose a way out of the problem.

Daughter Zion (Lam 1–2) is often read as a rape victim. Furthermore, and unlike most biblical victims of sexual violence, she has a voice in the text. As a result, there is a pronounced tendency in the scholarship to treat Daughter Zion as an ideal and praiseworthy victim/survivor. However, this representation is both problematic and contradicted by Daughter Zion’s own speech in Lamentations 1–2. In response, this chapter argues for Daughter Zion as a “gritty” survivor with a fuzzy, messy, and icky survival story. Her story is further illuminated when read together with other survivor texts, including Queering Sexual Violence (edited by Jennifer Patterson), Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha’s Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice, and Carmen Maria Machado’s In the Dream House. Together, these stories form a “survivor archive,” building on Ann Cvetkovich’s description of queer and affective archives.

Indonesia is a Legal State whose all aspects of citizens' lives are always rules and norms, be it sanctions or legal responsibilities that participate in growing in society. Responsibilitycan not only be imposedon the wrong-maker but the victim can shoulder this. From the statement, there are problems, namely the legal protection of victims of fetal abortion rape reviewed from a human rights perspective and criminal sanctions againstfetal abortion perpetrators based on human rights. This study aims to determine how the law of covering rape victims who perform fetal abortion. This writing uses the normative legal writing method where the writing is about principles, norms, and rules. In this writing the rape victim who decided to abort her fetus, this certainly makes the responsibility carried also by the victim who abortions her fetus caused by rape and makes the pregnancy that is not stopped that leads to abortion. Surely this is very contrary to the criminal law as well as the human rights of thefetus. Thispaper describesthat the responsibility of rape victims to the fetus abortion can be seen in terms of the human rights of a fetus and the victim himself.

The potential negative impact of sexualized video games on attitudes toward women is an important issue. Studies that have examined this issue are rare and contain a number of limitations. Therefore, it largely remains unclear whether sexualized video games can have an impact on attitudes toward women. This study examined the consequences of sexualized video game content and cognitive load (moderator) on rape victim blame and rape perpetrator blame (used as a proxy of rape myth acceptance), and whether the degree of humanness of the victim and of the perpetrator mediated these effects. Participants (N = 142) played a video game using sexualized or non-sexualized female characters. Cognitive load was manipulated by setting the difficulty level of the game to low or high. After gameplay, participants read a rape date story, and were then asked to judge the victim’s and the perpetrator’s degree of responsibility and humanness. Based on the General Aggression Model (GAM), it was hypothesized that playing the video game with a sexualized content would increase the responsibility assigned to the victim and diminish the responsibility assigned to the perpetrator. Further, degree of humanness of the victim and the perpetrator was expected to mediate this relation. The results were partially consistent with these predictions: Playing a video game containing sexualized female characters increased rape victim blame when cognitive load was high, but did not predict degree of humanness accorded to the victim. Concerning the perpetrator, video game sexualization did not influence responsibility, but partly influenced humanness. This study concludes that video games impact on attitudes toward women and this, in part, due to its interactive nature.

The objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between modern racism and rape victim and perpetrator blame, and rape perception. Participants from both a community population ( n = 211) and a student population ( n = 200) read a rape vignette and provided their judgements of blame towards a victim and perpetrator, their perception of the event as rape, and later answered the modern racism scale. Results showed a significant positive relationship between modern racism and rape victim blame ( r = .35, R2 [Formula: see text] 100 = 12.1%), while modern racism had a significant negative relationship with perpetrator blame ( r = −.27, R2 [Formula: see text] 100 = 7.5%) and rape perception ( r = −.29, R2 [Formula: see text] 100 = 8.7%). Implications for the criminal justice system as well as suggestions for future research were discussed.
