Part 2: Violated: Chatting about Our Book with Remy Green
Update: 2025-06-18
Description
This episode is a continuation of the previous one where Julie and Remy discuss their book, Violated: Sexual Consent and Assault in the 21st Century (with obvious trigger warnings for discussion of sexual assault). They begin by discussing aspects of the BDSM subculture that can might be able to inform consent practices in the broader culture. Then they focus on the discussions of rape law in the book, which include the historical development of rape and sexual assault laws, followed by their take on mens rea (intentionality) and the desperate need to "grade" rape laws more like we currently grade homicide--by intent, not just offense.
