“People don't understand that that can happen in a rape situation. Orgasms can happen. And because of the communal ignorance around topics like this, every time a victim happens to have had orgasm, they dismiss the rape. I've heard arguments like she enjoyed it. A key reason we don't heal is communal ignorance.”
