      Welcome to Christianity.

      If a man sexually exploits a woman, it’s the woman’s fault for leading him astray.

      This is how women are treated in deeply Christian communities.

      Those women fear stepping forward to report assault or abuse because there are many in their community that will condemn them for it.
