My issue with this kind of argument is that it is saying that if something is worst somewhere else (i.e. The treatment of both victims and perpetrators of sexual assault in some Middle Eastern countries), then we should focus less on it, or stop complaining about, in our own lives because it's not as bad. Don't get me wrong, I don't think any of the issues here in the U.S. or Canada related to rape are comparable to the atrocities going on in other parts of the world, but it's still a problem that our society could improve upon.

This is a great overview of the term rape culture! Another point that I might add is the guilt or fear of consequences that many survivors of rape report. Many site this as a reason for delayed reporting of sexual assault.
