- Abstract
This paper prepared to solve what kinds of stigma suffered by victims in the MeToo movement in China. Through analyzing texts selected from Sina Weibo according to an incident of Xianzi, we concluded four types of stigma affected individuals and showed the dilemma in asking for women’s rights. Victims were under pressure from rape myth, feminist, profit and politics when the regulations of Weibo about reporting did lead to the negative outcome of stigma on wealth or mental health.
