“Asian men don’t rape” is a racist generalization. There is no race that doesn’t commit sexual assault. The fact that there hasn’t yet been a high-profile Asian man accused (by a woman) doesn’t mean Asian men are somehow predisposed to be kinder and gentler, it means there are fewer high-profile Asian men. Does…

This really illustrates how hypocritical we can be about believing victims based on how well we know or like the accused. We all know rapists aren’t shadow-monsters but people, many with good qualities and families and friends who love them— but knowing this logically and being able to reconcile it are very different.…

Same here. And the fact that their characters shared this sisterhood where they hung out in their pajamas makes this even more devastating.

ps, to clarify, since there seems to be confusion around this— flirting with or asking out a woman in a social setting isn’t harassment in a legal or ethical sense, provided your idea of flirting doesn’t include grabbing her, following her around refusing to take no for an answer, talking graphically about what you…

This illustrates that it doesn’t matter how violent the assault or how overwhelming the evidence is— women who have expressed certain types of fantasies risk being considered unrapeable in the eyes of…

Teeth! The best movie ever about vagina dentata.

It does seem overrepresented in horror as opposed to other genres. Like it would be interesting to see a romance where one character happened to be a survivor but you just never see that. Movies like to depict the act, but not life going on afterwards.

Because he was only accused by one kid, he couldn’t be guilty? Dude. Do you realize how few victims ever come forward at all? Just out of people I’ve known in my life I can think of half a dozen survivors who never told their families, forget reporting the crime to authorities. Child molestation is shrouded in…
