What is Hunting Girls : Sexual Violence From The Hunger Games to Campus Rape about?

Kelly Oliver examines popular culture's fixation on representing young women as predators and prey and the implication that violence—especially sexual violence—is an inevitable, perhaps even celebrated, part of a woman's maturity. To underscore the threat of these depictions, Oliver locates their manifestation of violent sex in the growing prevalence of campus rape, the valorization of woman's lack of consent, and the new urgency to implement affirmative consent apps and policies. Female stars of popular films and novels no longer need men to help them fight, but what purpose does all of this violence serve?
