Defining Rape: The Problem with Consent

Rape is one of the most commonly reported crimes all over the world. It is a crime under both international and national law although it is still primarily prosecuted before domestic courts. The traditional common law definition of rape articulates three elements of the crime of rape; vaginal penetration, lack of consent and direct participation of the accused person. However, many jurisdictions are moving away from consent-based definitions of rape. Through a feminist lens, this paper explores the place of consent as an element of the crime of rape. It undertakes a comprehensive review of literature and case law and makes an analysis of the articulation of consent as an element of the crime of rape at both national and international levels. It establishes that the legal definition of rape has a significant impact on the prosecution of rape cases and on the victim of rape. If the definition is based on the need for the prosecution to prove the lack of consent, then the legal process is focused on her behaviour and reaction to the sexual assault. It concludes that a definition of rape based on lack of consent is problematic and hinders access to justice for rape victims and it is inconsistent with the contemporary understanding of rape as a crime of sexual violence.

The paper contains a comprehensive analysis of the amendments made to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation by Federal Laws No. 3-FZ dated January 28, 2022 and No. 38-FZ dated March 06, 2022. Noting the next round of strengthening criminal repression for pedophile assaults, the author draws attention to the legislative bias in assessing the public danger of acts, since rape or violent sexual acts committed against two or more minors are punished more severely than the murder of these victims. Having identified technical and legal flaws in the content of Part 5 of Articles 131 and 132 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the author identifies issues that may arise when qualifying violent sexual crimes committed against two or more minors; involving the commission of another grave or especially grave crime against the person; with a special relapse. Critically assessing the content of Part 3 of Article 133 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the author raises the question of the validity of strengthening criminal liability for group coercion to sexual acts only against minors (paragraph «a«); attribution of «use of mass media» to the number of signs that increase the public danger of harassment. The author pays special attention to one of the obvious defects of the norms of Chapter 18 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which violate the principles of equality and justice, namely, the normative separation according to the degree of public danger of sexual intercourse and sodomy or lesbianism with a person under the age of 16, which does not correspond to the principle of gender equality. The conducted legal analysis testifies not to the consistent normative implementation of the strategic course, but to the spontaneity of decisions aimed at solving particular problems.

AbstractThis article examines how women and girls with disabilities who are survivors of sexual and gender-based violence crimes have a right to access justice under Article 13 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). It explains how the right to access justice requires States to actively address gender and disability stigmas and discriminations that create barriers within justice systems, and how the failure to do so violates the CRPD. Further, the author argues that when a State fails to eliminate such barriers post-armed conflict, the International Criminal Court may then exercise jurisdiction over these crimes in order to raise awareness of crimes against women and girls with disabilities, strengthen domestic justice systems by pressuring States to investigate and prosecute these crimes, and act as a court of last resort for crimes against women and girls with disabilities.

Falsification of the Sexual Experiences Questionnaire: No Evidence of Systemic Sexual Harassment in Academic STEM

Herein, the socio-psychological narrative of sexual harassment (SH) is critically evaluated. The notion of systemic SH in university departments of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is contradicted by the overwhelming (>90%) career satisfaction among female STEM academics. The Sexual Experiences Questionnaire (SEQ), central to the study of SH, inheres the nominalistic fallacy. SEQ usage deploys subjectivist methodologies, categorical ambiguity, the post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy, and treats respondents as cyphers. Intercorrelation of SEQ factors reduces response statistics by 42%, while phase-space vector geometry indicates the SEQ does not measure SH. Personality analysis implies that serial abusers dominate the incidence of SH. The widespread notion that 20–25% of female college students suffer violent sexual assault rests on a misreading of published work. The 2016 Campus Climate Survey permits an upper limit estimate that 3.2% of female college students suffer rape at the hands of 4.3% of male student perpetrators, largely accompanied by drugs or alcohol. The 2018 National Academy (NAS) Report on sexual harassment in STEM exhibits negligent scholarship and carelessly generalizing statistics and may itself promote violation of the EEOC legal definition of SH. Despite instances of grievous sex-based abuse, there is no evidence that female STEM academics face systemic sexual harassment. Finally, evolutionary psychology and the social significance of personality provide a scientific understanding of SH.

However, it is not uncommon for views from the community regarding an unbalanced assessment of a community group, namely to men who are often not considered as a serious matter by the community. The majority of sexual violence crimes that occur in Indonesia occur against women and children as victims. The regulation of criminal acts of sexual violence in the Indonesian Criminal Code which is still considered lacking in protection against certain parties or groups is the author's idea or idea to suggest that there is a need to improve the provisions for regulating sexual violence crimes in Indonesia. The problem in this study is how the urgency of regulating sexual violence crimes is expected to be a solution for the community, especially victims of the crime of sexual violence. On April 12, 2022, the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia ratified Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning the Crime of Sexual Violence.
