I have a theory

jessicavalenti:

That young women in the U.S. probably have learned more about rape culture on Tumblr – or other places online – than in school. True? Iā€™d be interested to hear peopleā€™s storiesā€¦.

Not a single word about rape culture was uttered, from kindergarten to my college graduation.Ā  My family was always very liberal, and my sister is an outspoken feminist and always was, but I didn’t start learning about rape culture and contemporary feminism until 2006 or so, when I started dating my boyfriend.Ā  He’s super liberal and a feminist, and introduced me to a few feminist blogs.
