B ritain was shocked by the content of a report published last week describing massive sexual exploitation of teens in and around the town of Rotherham. From police to local politicians, authorities have looked the other way for years as hundreds of youths have been subjected to horrific abuse. The report, written by Prof. Even in the dry, factual language of an official report, it is difficult reading. This abuse left the victims terribly scared. Several years after they had been abused, a disproportionate number were victims of domestic violence, had developed long-standing drug and alcohol addiction, and had parenting difficulties with their own children. How could such widespread abuse go on without being noticed for so long? The answer to that question exposes a terrible sickness at just about every level of British society. This is not a problem unique to Rotherham.

He may have been acting out scenes from pornography he had viewed on his X-box, the judge added. It almost beggars belief. It is behavior where it is experimenting or curious, and perhaps acting out what he had seen using [the girl] as an object to do that. Before the trial began, the victim said she finds it hard to trust people. All of this has made me have nightmares. I cry in my sleep, and when I wake up, I feel scared. Now, I really understand it was rape, and he had no right to do that to me.
Rape is a type of sexual assault initiated by one or more persons against another person without that person's consent. The act may be carried out by physical force, or where the person is under threat or manipulation, or with a person who is incapable of valid consent. Definitions of rape vary, but generally require some degree of sexual penetration without consent, [1] [2] [3] [4] the term "consent" varies as well. Minors , for example, are often considered too young to consent to sexual relations with older persons see statutory rape and age of consent. Many jurisdictions, such as Canada and several US and Australian states , no longer have a traditional common law offence of rape, which always required that sexual penetration had occurred. Some of these jurisdictions instead have created new statutory offences, such as sexual assault or criminal sexual conduct, which criminalise sexual contact without consent, and without any requirement that sexual intercourse occurred. Depending on the jurisdiction, rape may be characterized as a sexual offence [note 1] or an offence against the person. To sustain a conviction, rape might require proof that the defendant had sexual penetration with another person.
