This game is responsible for so much sexual tension. I hope they NEVER stop making them.

You may have gained perspective on this already. Just in case, the short answer is that bias motivated crime laws punish criminals based on the motivation for their crimes. Most attacks on women are perpetuated by men they know. The reason for the attacks aren't "bias motivated" per se, so it wouldn't serve to…

maybe

And I think you're a fucking genius! I tried to find a meme to express my enthusiasm at your suggestion, this is the best I could find. O_o I guess people don't have cause to say that too often.

Thanks for infantilizing me . I don't get that kind of treatment often. We've gone way off course. All I was trying to say is that the emphasis this site is putting on the fact the latest mass shooter, is also a misogynist, is counter productive. Not separating the psychologically disturbed from the hate…

Love this reply.

I can't categorize sexual objectification as always being a byproduct of misogyny. I just can't do it.

thank you for being so invested as to do the work for me.

I agree. Science supports that we all want to be loved, valued, and a part of a community. We are social creatures. Anti-social acts are self-defeating in that they raise the chances that one will be ostracized. IOW people who commit these acts ain't right in the head. I was drinking last night.

There is definitely a systematic element to many types of hate.

Yea, on second thought , most can't plea insanity so..... I get it. I think it was the title that of the post that got me. The sensationalism. "SEE what happens!!!!"

I can support treating violence against women as a hate crime. I can definitely support that. I good way to definitively show our societies stance. I like that idea. On second thought, this many of these dude wouldn't qualify for an insanity plea because it's obvious they knew what they were doing was wrong.

if it went that way, it may give birth to a rise in structured "treatment" for the attitudes and beliefs that support/encourage misogyny. Like the treatment facilities for abusive men. I only know of one of those right now. Would that be so bad?

provide an outlet for the rage their actions have inspired?

thanks, don't know how people experience "moments of clarity" while intoxicated- all I get are " moments of confusion".

THIS!!!!

:) how about a mental institution?

I think women are convenient targets and get a lot of misplaced rage. Which isn't the same thing as acting out of a hatred, mistrust, or dislike of women.

are you qualified to give that analysis?

I disagree, I think they can exist separately and mental illness excuses a lot.
