鉴于最近越来越多的关注性侵犯的社会运动，如#MeToo运动，必须了解当前对性侵犯和这些运动的态度。这项研究的目的是通过定性分析社交媒体帖子（即，tweets），其中包含流行的社交媒体平台Twitter上的标签“metoo”。最初的样本包括Twitter用户在四天时间内公开发布的4，559条推文，这些推文代表了关于原告和被告的事件和态度。数据被清理和编码，剩下的508条推文被包括在内，因为它们包含的内容被归类为消极的态度或信仰（无论是通过谴责的态度还是对指控者和/或#MeToo运动的矛盾心理）。对推文内容的定性分析结果表明，在#MeToo运动的背景下，对性侵犯的负面态度和信念通过六个主题传达：（1）作为#MeToo运动的一部分提出的指控无效;（2）坚持认为，并可能相信，提出的指控是错误的;（3）声称这些指控有其他动机;（4）声称这些指控是错误的。（4）对指控可能对被告造成的伤害表示担忧;（5）对运动对男性权力，特权和地位的影响表示担忧;（6）质疑整个#MeToo运动的完整性。这些发现提供了对#MeToo运动的态度和信念的更深入理解，包括文献中不常提到的新颖信念。最重要的是，这些调查结果表明，尽管目前有干预措施和社会运动，强奸文化仍然存在。研究结果强调，未来需要采取干预措施，旨在教育和改善社会对性侵犯的态度。
Given recent and growing societal movements focusing on sexual assault, such as the #MeToo Movement, it is imperative to understand current attitudes about sexual assault and these movements. The aim of this study was to examine negative attitudes and beliefs about sexual assault in the context of the #MeToo Movement by qualitatively analyzing social media posts (i.e., tweets) containing the hashtag “metoo” on Twitter, a popular social media platform. The initial sample consisted of 4,559 tweets that were publicly posted by Twitter users across a four-day timeframe and represented events and attitudes regarding both about an accuser and an accused. Data were cleaned and coded, and a remaining 508 tweets were included because they contained content that was categorized as negative in their attitudes or beliefs (either through attitudes of condemnation or ambivalence towards accusers and/or the #MeToo Movement). Results from a qualitative content analysis of tweets demonstrated that negative attitudes and beliefs about sexual assault within the context of the #MeToo Movement were conveyed through six main themes: (1) invalidating the accusations made as part of the #MeToo Movement; (2) insisting, and likely believing, that accusations made were false; (3) claiming that there were alternative motives for those accusations; (4) showing a concern for the harm that accusations may cause those accused; (5) exhibiting concerns about the effects of the Movement on male power, privilege, and status; and (6) questioning the integrity of the #MeToo Movement as a whole. These findings provide a deeper understanding of attitudes and beliefs about the #MeToo Movement, including novel beliefs not often addressed in the literature. Most importantly, these findings show that rape culture continues to persist despite current interventions and social movements. Results underscore the need for future interventions that aim to educate and improve societal attitudes towards sexual assault.
