Is covering up sexual assault as bad as sexually assaulting someone?
It goes back to our childhood and enculturation. Sexual abuse and viewing Internet porn is rampant in many neighborhoods. As we have seen in the news, both male and female teachers prey on youth. It seems to be inherent in power dynamics despite gender. Finally, covering up sexual abuse is just as bad because it means you agree with the occurrence. If I saw my boss murder someone in the parking lot should that be a time to worry about keeping my job?
