(Only 3 percent of rapist spend even a day in jail.)
Colleges can be openly hostile to the victims.
(Campus rape rates haven’t changed in the last 20 years.)
People think rape victims are making it all up.

Rapists can seek child custody in a majority of the United States.
(In 31 states, convicted rapists can sue for visitation rights and custody.)
Politicians thinks women can’t get pregnant from rape.
