But those other kids and their parents didn't rape anyone, as far as we know. So while they all may say they didn't know it was rape, only a couple of people actually committed rape. And for those people, it is highly likely that the non-consent was the whole point, here's a great post on that:

Do you think that because some (perhaps most) rapists would not say what they did is rape, this means that if they did understand what "rape" was they wouldn't have done it?

I read that Reddit conversation too but I'm not sure why you believe them when they say they didn't know what they were doing. Would you believe it if it was pedophiles?

Yeah, I agree that one of the issues with consent education campaigns is rapists are aware of what consent is, and they're acting specifically because it is not present. There is a crapton of research backing this up. Their misogynistic attitudes come out in a bunch of ways; one of those ways is rape. You mentioned…

More recent Abbey, "Alcohol's role in sexual violence perpetration" from 2011

Here is more info on Antonia Abbey's research.

I'm dividing my response in two, this post is about the rapist types, and another post about Antonia Abbey's research on alcohol and sexual assault which is probably more relevant to the whole conversation about RAINN.

My thesis is on whether or not rapists who consumed alcohol exhibit common patterns of behaviors that fit into types. Umm, basically, it's this: the FBI developed a rapist classification system, or typology, based on behavior patterns that kept showing up. There are several rapist typologies, not just FBI, but that…

Thank you for this! I'm a grad student who just spent all night reading about rapists, acquaintance rape, and alcohol because that's the heart of my thesis. I've been doing this for a year now and lord knows I am not done. I'm very familiar with Dr. Abbey's work and it is very misleading to imply that her research…

LOL all of this is hilarious! How deep do the layers go?!

Anything to do with any Kardashians. It's not hate, I've just never been given a reason to care. I don't know how many of them there are or what their names are or who is who. I know who Kim is because of Kanye but other than her sex tape I don't exactly know why she's famous. Same goes for all Real Housewives of…

You're the one picking and choosing what aspects of her career to talk about, not her. I mean, you can't just disregard Destiny's Child, one of the biggest groups of all time and one in which she was clearly the lead and most famous. But its not convenient for your argument, so you disregard that period of her life…

You're right, I didn't address them and I really don't think addressing them will change anything. But once again, you're not being explicit. What is wrong with her album covers? What is it you see that means she is putting down blackness? Is it the last cover that's all black with her name in pink font? It must be…

Should she lie about her heritage?

You say always, I've never heard of it. I've never heard her put down black people in any way. She doesn't shy away from being black, she wears braids, calls herself "third ward trill" and is a proud black mother married to a black man. She can't help her skin tone, but when does she ever say or imply she's better…

Yeah let's talk about it. In what way does she "put down her blackness"?

Misogyny is not any type of mental illness, it's a social disease officer krupke

OK, "basically a sociopath" so why should anyone care what you think to answer your boring, banal, narcissistic questions? You're just dull and you know you are.

Jojo's new EP #LoveJo is divine!

Yeah Ciara!
