Former Army sergeant: "[t]oo much reporting treats sexual assault as a women’s problem, something that happens to military women by military men"

"But this relies on the false assumption that sexual assault is about sex. It’s not; it is a violent crime that is about aggression, domination, and power."

Ah, that old chestnut (can't find a good debunking online at the moment, but Steven Pinker writes about it at length in "The Blank Slate")

Interesting article otherwise.

I noticed that it didn't become a media issue until we started stepping up women's involvement in the military.
