_Not That Bad_: Lessons Women Learn In A Rape Culture, Sydney J. Selman
Pursuit - The Journal of Undergraduate Research at The University of Tennessee
In 2018, Roxane Gay assembled an anthology that addresses the severity of rape, rejecting the common belief that some sexually violent acts, compared to others, are not that bad.
