Rethinking sexual violence labels: exploring the impact of 'victim' and 'survivor' discourse.

Universities' responses to sexual violence have faced scrutiny for their lack of proactiveness and their failure to address campus socio-cultural norms that contribute to rape myth acceptance. The labels victim and survivor play a crucial role in shaping attitudes toward sexual violence, but there is limited research on how university students perceive these labels. This paper explores sexual violence labels and their role in perpetuating rape culture.
