“because we’re the adults and we say so” just strikes me as fundamentally insulting

Yeah, because physically beating someone to teach them obedience works so well in every situation. Pity whoever was in charge of corporate punishment at your school didn’t beat some actual sense into you, but hey, we can’t have everything.

I don’t need to read another testimony from someone saying they paid for theirs.

As for the Compensation Board website that you keep hooting about - you still don’t get that it does is link you right back to the state Crime Victims Reparation Board or its county/parish-based equivalent- which is - surprise! - the entity I referenced right off the bat. Maybe if you’d checked out Louisiana - which I…

I would advise you stop telling victims they can’t report rape due to monetary funds

ABRIDGED VERSION: Take it up with this site, and with commenters who weighed in, since you clearly know more than anyone who’s actually, y’know, HAD the experience.

Pfft - it goes without saying. Everyone know if they’re famous or wealthy they’re de facto sexual magnets - they don’t have to rape anyone.

You don’t have to pay for the rape kit. There are funds available to help. Stop spreading bullshit that makes people not want to report being raped.

That was actually taken BEFORE the trial, on July 2014 - before the Harry Potter defense makeover.

Given what you’ve told me, I doubt she would have made it official because seeking redress in the courts for an imagined crime wasn’t what she was after - it sounds like your ex had a lather/rinse/repeat hard luck story already going for her and getting any authorities involved wouldn’t have benefited her - quite the…

So maybe you should consider changing the picture, at the very least? She mutilated the man while he lay dying - and if that had been a woman whose arm was shaved to the bone, no one would be making dog treat cracks. I don’t even want to think about how agonizing that must have been so I’ll hope he was unconscious…

Is that so? In case you’re under the impression that you’ve made some sort of cogent point that it’s easy - and free - to claim you’ve been raped, let me enlighten you. If you go directly to the hospital to make your report, do you have any idea how long you can sit in chairs have a forensic exam done - during which…

My favorite scream-inducer is “my son’s popular - he has loads of girlfriends, he doesn’t need to rape anyone!” Stabbystabbystabbystabby.

Hold on - I meant “crazy/reckless enough to go to the police and report a rape as in criminal charges/DA/testifying in open court/having to endure cross examination if it isn’t true,” not as in “claiming you’d been raped to a guy you’re trying to scam for money and other benefits because you’re a pathological liar,…

It’s more like as soon as it involves anything resembling sex, there’s a whole new set of ethics involved. The fact is that women are still seen as commodities, which is why it’s important for so many politicians etc. to try to deny them access to sex education, contraception, abortion, health care and overall control…

So far, so good!

Damn, rape is hard. *kicks rocks...but not hard enough as to suggest irrationality*

Are all the Hobbit movies porn for you?

Hey, we already know you’re a douche anyway (KIDDING). Since you can’t delete earlier comments, Kinja is as Kinja does.
