Abstract
Every year, approximately 30,000 rape cases are reported in India, and the number of unreported cases is even higher. The aim of the present study is to analyze the relationship between rape myth and sexism and also to observe the difference between males and females around these two aspects. A sample of 99 individuals including 71 females and 28 males completed the Illinois Rape Myth Acceptance scale and Ambivalent Sexism Inventory. Findings suggested that there is a significant and positive relationship between sexism and rape myth but the difference among genders isn't substantial.
