New ‘Men Can Stop Rape’ Ads Rock

Men Can Stop Rape has a new ad campaign and it is pretty great. When we go on and on about how rape prevention ads should be targeted at men, this is what we mean.

Let’s make anti-rape culture, the new culture.

These ads are smart and a welcome relief in a world where women are often blamed for sexual assault. We need messages that address the different ways we can stop sexual assault. These ads certainly do that.

Is everyone going to have a positive response to these ads? Probably not. The ads may not have an impact on everyone who sees them. This does not mean though that we should not support these types of ad campaigns or criticize them for not being perfect. This is definitely a big step in the right direction.

I want ads like this everywhere, all the time.
