So Remember...Always Wear a Condom

China Geek provides an excellent summing-up(I'm pretty sure that's a word) of the ongoing “official implicated in the rape of a teacher”(original Chinese). A middle school teacher was plied with drinks, whereupon she was raped by the city rural land resources manager, Wang Zhong Gui. Typically, the police weren't really interested, claiming that “If he wore a condom, it’s not rape.”:
Recently, the topic “official implicated in the rape of a teacher” has been appearing on forums and has attracted a lot of attention. The person who made the post was the Huajuea City Middle School English teacher, 26-year-old Zhou Qin. She says that on May 17, 2011, the school principal ordered her to accompany 8 [government] leaders for drinks. After she was drunk, she was raped by the city rural land resources manager, Wang Zhonggui. What’s even more shocking is that according to what’s being said on the net, when Zhou Qin reported this to her local police station, the police said: “If he wore a condom, it’s not rape.”

The Shangaiist weighs in dryly noting that "when someone is a victim of robbery, do the police let the thief go free because the victim did not have a better lock on their door? If a person is beaten or killed, does the assailant get a weaker sentence because the victim did not defend himself well enough?"
