The profile of 35 out of the 46 women allegedly raped by American comedian Bill Cosby, has been revealed in New York magazine's cover story.

US comedian, Bill Cosby
 
New York Magazine, on Sunday night, July 27, released a unique cover story revealing the personal accounts of 35 of Bill Cosby‘s accusers.
 
The magazine wrote:
 
“The group of women Cosby allegedly assaulted functions almost as a longitudinal study – both for how an individual woman, on her own, deals with such trauma over the decades and for how the culture at large has grappled with rape over the same time period. In the ’60s, when the first alleged assault by Cosby occurred, rape was considered to be something violent committed by a stranger … But among younger women, and particularly online, there is a strong sense now that speaking up is the only thing to do, that a woman claiming her own victimhood is more powerful than any other weapon in the fight against rape.”
 
A few months ago the media started paying attention to the emerging rape allegations – all of which had a consistent similarity of an aspiring actress/model trying to get ahead in the industry.
 
For a cover story this week, New York interviewed and photographed 35 of Cosby’s alleged victims in black and white.
 
The cover story is coming three weeks after Bill Cosby admitted in a 2005 court deposition made public that he intended to give Quaaludes to young women with whom he wanted to have sex with.
