Title: Implications of Sexual Scripts on People's Perception of Sexual
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction: Several studies have examined sexual script theory from an individual's perspective and how it relates to consent, yet few studies have examined how sexual scripts influence others’ judgments about consent. Sexual script theory outlines expected behaviors in a dating context, which describes men as being proactive, such as asking for the date and initiating sexual advances, and women as being reactive and responding in a way that is not sexually aggressive (Simon & Gagnon, 2003). In July of 2012, a user of the online forum Reddit.com posted the following question: “Reddit’s had a few threads about sexual assault victims, but are there any redditors from the other side of the story? What were your motivations? Do you regret it?”, which allowed us to examine personal narratives from perpetrators of sexual assault and the reactions of others. The current study aims to explore whether the adherence to sexual scripts influences the perception of sexual assault.
