Flirty women responsible for rape?

Post Reply New Topic

I agree with you. The only way that I would be able to not hit someone who said something that stupid is if they explained that their definition of 'blame' was different from mine. Like wearing skimpy clothes will make it more likely for that to happen to you, but OF COURSE its not your fault.

If you wear skimpy clothes and then men start hootin' and hollerin' at you, then that is very different in my opinion.

It is obvious that you all don't understand the species "man".

For men, the prime directive is to screw women. Sorry, but that's how it is. You want to wear skimpy outfits to attract men, that's your business, but realize that no law is more powerful than the "prime directive". You get raped, please don't come crying to me, I've just warned you.

Since whens it okay to rape someone when they say no?

I didn't say it was ok, I just said it was.

You can be as politically correct as you want, you can pass all the laws you want, but men exist to screw women. As many as possible. As often as possible. That trumps acceptability, because it is reality

Gee, in that case, I'd better book a doctor's appointment. There seems to have been a mistake. I'll have to tell most of the "men" I know that they've been duped as well.

I saw it in a commercial.

I've heard that anout 1/3 of women are sexually harrassed, assualted or raped. This makes some sense. Construction workers and their cat whistles would fall under this heading. Most therefeore are likely minor instances of sexual harassment, The emphasis, of course, is on rape, a small fraction of this.

And even if many reported rapes do not occur, by far the majority of thsoe that do go unreported.

As for accusing women of "deserving rape," it's called "blaimign the victim." DId a bit in middle school.

A reall sick instance of this is Nigeria with its sharia law.

If a woman is raped she can be convicted for adultery, if she complains she can be convicted of libel.
I don't know how common these cases are, I beleive I've seen two mentioned in my lifetime, one on the former, one on the latter.
Yet those laws do exist.

And some people (*cough* Pryor */cough*) seem to want to bring them to the US. Though this, of course, is getting off topic.

where has my post gone?

Everyone deserves to be safe regardless of who they are. To write off rape in such a way as to blame the victim is to put everyone in danger regardless of the circumstances. Also, to say that men can't control themselves is actually an insult to a whole gender. Men are not Neanderthals incapable of controlling themselves. They can run billion dollar corporations, lead countries and other astounding things that take all the self disipline in the world. Surely, they can take responsability for their own behavior.

In my case, I dress very conservatively yet everywhere I go, I've had men try to follow me, harrass me and even had several instances of men exposing themselves at me......while on a crowded bus. I'm tired of not being able to go outside my front door without feeling like like I have to carry a gun because of these fools. The other day, I even had one dude try to block my path with his car while I was walking home when I wouldn't take his offer for a ride.

I tell you what, though. If men truly can't control their "urges", then I'm not going to suppress my "urge" to shoot the next creep with the .38 I'm about to purchase.
