Family rape

Yes. Report it. discreetly.

Rape is rape.

But what if you can't because of who it is in the family?

Certain things aren't taken as seriously as others when it comes to rape I don't think. It can be seen as humiliating on a certain kind of victim...

Why on earth wouldn't it be considered a sexual assault? Family members can rape one another as strangers can equally force themselves on other strangers.

Depending on what actually happened between the perpetrator and the victim, the charges will be different.

Maybe in a third world country but in the US or other western countries, as LionTamer states, "rape is rape." No matter what kind of familial relationship exists between the aggressor and the victim.

But what if the person commiting it is necessary to the family and without them there wouldn't be anything, the other's lives would be wrecked and it might not even work to report it because of the way it's happening.

Is it fair to suggest that you are rationalizing and JUSTIFYING the brutal, monstrous, violent, and illegal act of rape in order to either get away with rape yourself (if you are the perpetrator), live a certain standard of life (if you depend on the income of this sex offender/income producing family member), or something in between? What about the victim? Does he or she not need protection from any further sexual assault? According to you, the victim should make the ultimate family sacrifice and continue being a victim so that the family can keep a certain degree of livelihood. Whereas the perpetrator should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and the family to move on. The victim needs help and to heal. Keeping this familial relationship as status quo is the ultimate bit of selfishness.

All members of the populous wish, when not hidden from, to have truth and justice, or else even mafia are mobbed and killed.

Your family member will be fortunate, to be reported.

Your failure as far as others are concerned, is irrelevant to logic. Jokes aside of course... That you have 'slack' fantasies is somewhat the tickler! ..Especially to those fighting 'tight is great'.

'your' -- implying the friendly adders amongst us snakes.
