In Plain Sight: Unmasking the Rape Academy Epidemic & The Dark Web of Consent
In this episode, Jules & Tessa discuss a CNN investigation into an international “rape academy” chat group and content hosted on motherless.com, which they say received 62 million visits in February and includes thousands of videos of unconscious women tagged “passed out” and “eyecheck,” with users exchanging tips on drugging partners and avoiding detection. They connect the story to broader issues of misogyny, the manosphere, and consent, citing statistics including 10–14% of married women being raped by partners, laws in 17 states affecting prosecution when a spouse rapes an incapacitated partner, and low reporting, arrest, and conviction rates. They share personal experiences of sexual assault and abuse, discuss how mainstream media distractions and institutional cover-ups enable harm, reference cases like Gisèle Pelicot and films depicting “nice guy” predators, emphasize teaching consent and confronting systemic behavior, and provide the National Sexual Assault Hotline number (1-800-656-HOPE).
