RAPE CULTURE
SCORA&SCORP CIMSA UKDW
Rape culture or rape culture defines a society or environment whose social attitudes normalize or underestimate violence and sexual harassment. Launching from The 11th Principle: Consent !, the rape culture is divided into three gradients of sexual harassment behavior that occur in everyday life—starting from normalization that leads to degradation to leading to assault or sexual violence. Based on the 2020 Komnas Perempuan Annual Notes (CATAHU), violence against women is increasing every year. In 2019, most cases occurred in the private sphere with sexual violence as much as 25%. Then followed by cases in the community / public domain, which recorded 3,602 cases, with 58% of which were sexual violence. This data shows the community's growing expectations towards legal institutions to be able to resolve cases experienced in the environment.
