This is not an invitation to rape me..
About the campaign
With This Is Not An Invitation To Rape Me, Rape Crisis Scotland wants to confront attitudes blaming women for rape in a very direct way,
and invites members of the public in Scotlandto join us in putting an end to these attitudes.
The campaign comprises a range of images (and supporting materials) that invite you to
examine your own attitude to the situations presented, and enter the debate that we hope
our campaign will generate.
