we don't carefully talk about rape. We live in a strange and terrible time for women. There are days when I think it has always been a strange and terrible time to be a woman.
In her book "Bad Feminist: Essays," Roxane Gay reflects on the serious issue of rape and how society often fails to address it properly. She emphasizes that discussions around such a sensitive topic are often not handled with the care and seriousness they deserve, leading to a culture of silence and misunderstanding regarding women's experiences.
Gay also highlights the broader struggles women face, suggesting that these issues are not new but rather have persisted throughout history. She feels that the current era is incredibly challenging for women, reinforcing the notion that the fight for women's rights and safety is ongoing and requires collective attention and action.
