Men don’t need them, so they don’t care.

Not only do they not know about that, but they also don’t know/realize how many women in their own circles (such as sisters, mothers, cousins, friends, coworkers, and even wives/girlfriends) have been subject to some form of sexual abuse, assault, or rape.
I know, but resist. If I respond, it ungreys them. I would dismiss the comments, but I think it’s important to see what we’re up against. If anything, it proves our point.
It is so, so hard not to respond to the trolls in this thread. So I’ll just say this in general: no, you don’t actually have to “resist” in order for rape to be rape. If someone grabs my purse off the table next to me and runs off with it, and I don’t scream and chase him, it’s still theft. If I leave my house…
How have we gotten to the point where every celebrity has to say precisely the correct thing regarding every social ill? She’s funny and seemingly desires to be a good person. Is that not enough?
So many women I knew in college had this experience. And despite all our best efforts to teach “no means ‘no!’” it continues. It happened to my daughter’s friend last week. And she was scared to report it because the town police have a reputation of trying to discredit the women who report being raped. But what’s…
She could. Also it would be cool if she didn’t have to be the perfect champion of everything progressive because she’s one of a small handful of women making it in comedy.
It is a common tactic of rapists to sue their victims for slander, because the vast, vast, vast majority of sexual assaults are a) not reported to the police and b) hard to prosecute in the rare cases that they are. And because it’s a further way to victimize someone.
That sucks. I teach at a public high school, and I can give you the insights I have, but a lot of it depends on the state and the laws guiding bullying in that state. (and whether your niece at a public or private school, I believe there are different liabilities/requirements then).
Ughhhh that makes me want to bang my head against the wall! I’m glad you stood up to them.
I wish I had recorded it- I was lobbying to my congressman Sean Duffy about campus safety and he told me that campus rape isn’t a problem and the real problem is men being falsely accused. It was disgusting. Thanks for the mansplanation, asshole!
..Cried the MRA. Did it ever occur to you that the reasons why some adult women don't name the people who raped them as teens and kids could be either because it wasn't someone they knew, too many years have passed for there to be any tangible evidence of the rapes, or because the person who victimized them was an…
Once when I was about 21-ish, I male friend and I were discussing sex, and then bad sex. His example was (paraphrasing) “when the girl changes her mind in the middle of it and then cries afterwards”. I was so shocked I didn’t say anything, and the gravity of what he said didn’t hit me until a while later, but I never…
Boogey man stranger in a dark alley kind of thing, yeah.
I am sick to the back teeth of hearing ‘all these women making false rape claims so disgusting’. Where are they even getting this from?! I bet not one can name one woman who has made a ‘false claim’. It's like they hear that statement off one man, pass it on to the next, to the next, to the next...
I had a boyfriend keep going after I said stop because he didn’t have a condom. He definitely does not consider that rape and some of my friends called it a gray area.
After being away from my boyfriend for a month I met up with him in Europe and obviously we got right to the sexing. I was jet lagged and exhausted and even though my mind was reading to go, my body was still playing catch up. I told him “stop, wait” multiple times because I actually wanted to give him a blowjob, and…
Then just to put this in context, because the gif doesn’t make it clear, she is not feeding him the toast. She is eating a piece of toast and he reaches over and bites it. It haunts me.
