[SPOILERS]IRL this is what actually happens to homeless, poor, desperate women
Rape and prostitution.
And this is how men are.
And women.

They do much worse.
I don't find any female character to be better than the males, Kidman's excluded.
At least the female ones are not rapists.
shareI'm not sure that if you're a woman and your man is raping another woman, and you just sit there and wait for him to finish his business, knowing exactly what he's doing, and then you blame the other woman for being the rape victim, I think that makes you as much a rapist as the rapist, you would be his accessory in rape at least.
The rapist’s wife is a victim blaming rape enabler, and even her kids playfully ring the town bell every time a man is ‘done’ with Grace.
The women and men of Dogville abuse Grace with all the tools in their respective arsenals.
