Last night at a town hall in Jonesborough, Tennessee, a woman shared her story: she was denied prenatal care by her OB-GYN because the doctor objected to the fact that she isn't married. She's been with her partner for 15 years and has a 13-year-old son. The doctor told her that because she was unwed, according to a new law in Tennessee, he didn't feel comfortable treating her because it went against his "Christian values."

"The way I see it, Trump is just saying it's not the government's place to suppress religious belief either."

Because he supports religious beliefs like black skin is the Mark of Cain, and women who have sex before marriage can be shunned for their morals.

Corrective rape is a religious belief. It wouldn't be right to suppress a religious belief.

Information Processing Theory

Resick & Schnicke (1992) developed an information processing model to explain reactions to interpersonal trauma. According to their model, when confronted with a schema-discrepant experience, either the discrepant information is altered so that it fits within previously established schema (i.e., assimilation) or the schema is changed to accommodate the new information (i.e., accommodation; Resick & Schnicke, 1992; Hollon & Garber, 1988). In other words, one may alter their perception of the trauma (e.g., "Itwasn't really rape") so it can be assimilated into their pre-existing schema about the safety of the world, or they may change their view of the world (e.g., "The world isn't safe") to accommodate their experience. Schematic overaccommodation may also occur such that one's schema is altered to be maladaptive (e.g., "I can never trust anyone again"). Assimilation occurs more often than accommodation (Resick & Schnicke, 1992), which may explain the phenomena of unacknowledged rape.
