Resumo

The presence of a picture such as the one that appears in the site (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3252/2843406747_3c135d63d9.jpg?v=0) brings to mind both the enormous efforts made throughout many years to raise awareness about the dangers or rape, and the horrors of rape for women all over the world. To joke with such a subject is offensive both for people—men and women—who have been struggling for so long, and for the victims of this crime. People who use the subject of rape for fun cause immense pain and immense damage.
