Legitimate Rape

You are probably unaware, but in my spare time which I have been lacking lately due to my desperate attempts to finish my projects while sobbing about how my father was right about how I'm never going to be anything in life because I'm lazy and don't know how to communicate with people I run two blogs on Tumblr. While trying to take a break before my brain exploded from reading about the electoral college for another moment, I went on one of them to find a video that would work pretty nicely here! Congrats, Amy, congrats.

This video has the caption "Legitimate rape - the new birth control method. Trigger warning: contains simulated depiction of rape." It's a pretty odd thing to see and maybe even uncomfortable but I think it was a pretty powerful way to present their message that The fact that we must argue of what is or isn't a legitimate rape is insane, really and that the way we decide is pretty much a game of . A woman's body can't just reject sperm if the rape is "legitimate" and that it isn't if she's a "SLUT".

The thing I found most odd was that it was a video someone else made for RAINN.org, a website I had no prior knowledge of before this video. RAINN stands for Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network. The website allows you to ask questions, look for warning signs of others in trouble, get help, and donate. It shows Christina Ricci as one of the supporters and asks for people to volunteer. With all these celebrities in here I'm really surprised I haven't heard of them before. The overall layout and color scheme is not appealing to the eyes and I honestly got lost with all of the information and not enough sparkley rainbows mixed in.
It also advertises it's "new and improved" website rainnmakers.rainn.org and I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't want to associate this serious network with "making it rain" (or whatever people call these things. I'm not up to date with slang). It's website is equally unappealing but I've kept both sites bookmarked just in case I want to look more into it later.
