Abstract

This chapter is a dialogue between two generations of feminists: 1 one a teacher and the other, a student. 2 Both of them live on the same private university campus where a case of prolonged sexual exploitation ending with a gang rape was unearthed in 2016. It was not a quintessential ‘stranger in dark alley’ kind of rape: it involved the football stars of our university, and the main accused and the survivor were in a conjugal relationship known to all – hence, it threw open considerable numbers of debates and questions about whether it was rape at all
