The idea
Prevention increasingly targets potential perpetrators rather than victims; endorsing rape myths predicts perpetration, and programmes for men show mixed but encouraging results.
In practice
Marital rape a crime in every US state by nineteen ninety-three, and the Violence Against Women Act passed in nineteen ninety-four.
Where people slip
Title IX, from nineteen seventy-two, bars sex discrimination in federally funded education.
