Quotations

“Working towards greater equality is therefore not only important in its own right, but also because it might also weaken the basis for rape to make sense to male perpetrators in war settings.” (“The Elephant in the Room: Sexual Violence as a Weapon of War”, 2010, p. 45; photo prio.org)
