Stories like the one about Marcus in Boys need to be told so that we all can gain a new perspective on the sexual violence that takes place behind closed doors, everywhere around us. The more we dehumanize the perpetrators, the smaller our chances are of actually dealing with the violence as a structural and social problem. Rapists are not faceless monsters.
