So... what you’re saying is if I find you passed out on the sidewalk and I kick the shit out of you and take your wallet, it’s not my fault and I shouldn’t be arrested?
Good to know, can I get your drinking schedule?
Anyone who’s first question to their daughter after she’s been raped is “why did you drink so much” should not be a parent. That’s never an appropriate way to respond to a victim of a violent crime, but that’s particularly horrible for one’s own CHILD.
And the implication of “why did you drink so much?” is “this was preventable.” And if it was preventable, if she hadn’t drank so much, then it is her fault.
Seriously.... if somebody, male or female, is passed out on the lawn or the sidewalk, what I expect to happen in any sane society is for people to (1) maybe shake them and ask “hey are you alright, do you need some help?”, (2) call the police or other authority to check on them, (3) at least just ignore them if…
I never claimed to be an expert on anything, but I have been to shit-ton of parties and grew up being told that bad things happen to girls who like to have a good time.
Gay. Straight. You’re a victim-blaming peice of trash.
If this is your personality I fear for any women you cross paths with.
*Raising hand in solidarity. Fuck this guy. Victim blaming. People shouldn’t rape others not matter what. So fucking simple. But these douche canoes feel that they have to still blame the victim.
If I accidentally left my door unlock, is it okay to steal my stuff? No, and I know you said he shouldn’t but you are still victim blaming. Maybe she was with someone or she walked out of the safety of her house because she was drunk, or...DON’T RAPE PEOPLE!
Have you never made a mistake? Most people make mistakes and end up with ant bites. This poor woman ended up raped. Do you think she doesn’t feel bad enough? Do you think she doesn’t think that she could have done something to stop it? If it wasn’t her, it would be someone else. Don’t add to this poor woman’s…
I am a woman and occasionally camp outdoors alone. Should I be raped for sleeping outside? Just making sure I don’t need to rig up some kind of anti-rape sleeping bag.
Nope. If my son were raped, the first and only question I would ask him is also “How can I best help and support you through this?” I don’t care if the victim (or the rapist) is male, female, androgynous, gay, straight, black, white, purple, anything - the responsibility for rape always belongs entirely to the rapist…
Maybe you should read about the case before you spout off with your victim blaming bullshit.
He will not care.
And the answer to that would be: “Why not? I’m an adult of legal drinking age, so unless I’m planning on driving afterward, I am fully allowed to consume as much alcohol as I feel like.” Since that’s the answer, the only possible reason to ask the question would be to suggest that, in fact, my daughter should not have…
Well, Like I said, the advice is sound. Bad people exist and it’s a good idea to protect ones self.
You don’t seem to understand that women take one sip of beer and it’s open season. Or their skirt was “too short”. Or they did or said something that the guy in question thought was a “come-on”. Or they were alone. Or they shouldn’t have gone to a frat party in the first place.
How long did that stern warning deter the Affluenza kid? A whole year?
I don’t think it will “embolden” him.
