 Some recent discussions emphasize that a full account of rape’s harm must incorporate both its denial of victims’ personhood and its intimate, sexual and bodily nature. According to Cahill, “rape must be understood fundamentally … as an affront to the embodied subject …. a sexually specific act that destroys (if only temporarily) the intersubjective, embodied agency and therefore personhood of a woman” (2001, 13). Anderson, seeking to define rape’s harm based on the “lived experience” of those who go through it, cites “dehumanization, objectification, and domination” as prominent in the accounts of both rapists and rape victims (2005, 641). Rape, she concludes, is best understood not only as the denial of sexual autonomy, but as “sexually invasive dehumanization” (643).
