Reformed gangster says street gang girls see rape as normal and accept it for status

 

Street gang girls will risk being raped in return for their membership of a group - according to a reformed woman gangster. Isha Nembhard, former member of an 80-strong gang in Peckham, south London, said being sexually abused when associating with male gangs was becoming normalised for many young woman. The 20-year-old said: 'It is about low self esteem and a craving for attention. Even if they know it's wrong, they will do it to get acceptance.'
