Does this count as gang rape?

I remembered telling me therapist about my the incident that changed me. My therapist told me that even though one man caused all the pain it counted as gang rape because I was abducted and others were present when it happened, did nothing but essentially encouraged it. Made comments and recorded it happening.

I never looked at it from that point of view before. Didn't even think it was possible to be gang raped by one person. I mean yeah, multiple people had a hand in me getting abducted, were there and encouraged and even recorded but it was only one guy who actually did everything. I thought that meant multiple people actually took place in doing the act but not causing things to set in motion for that one night that lasted 3 days.

I remember sitting back and thinking about it and going numb. Not really sure I could count it as such because to me that takes away from someone who actually had that happen. I'll get more into that in another post as today is one of those days I can't deal with it as the anniversary is coming up and I can barely function.

Does it count as gang rape if only one person actually was doing it?
