i think this whole conversation came about because a few people think others are ok with rape, victim blaming, or support the act becuase we like to warn or women about what not to do to place themselves in a situation. because all those are placing blame and all responsibility on the victim and none on the predator.Yes rape is frowned upon...but by your own admission there's instances where people disagree on what is/isn't rape...so that would lead to certain things being tolerated and/or allowed in a culture that could also fall into that gray area. IE the constant image shown of having to get a woman drunk or "trick" her into sleeping with you. How many times in movies/tv shows have we seen that play out? Or the "she's playing hard to get you just gotta convince her" shit...all of that can fall under that umbrella. When most folks think rape they think of some person hopping out the bushes and attacking a woman. Not the fact that a vast majority of rape victims, both men and women, already know and have had some interaction w/ their rapist already. That is why some have an issue processing a rape scenario that doesn't involve walking down a dark street at night or any other scenario people throw out aside from the actual most common occurrences
it just seems people dont want to think and have it only one way.
the predators know this and take advantage of it.
what better time to attack people outside of when they are distracted.
telling any female ...once or a thousand times to be careful is a problem?
how?
should we all just assume every chick knows and say fuck it?
this video in here is a prime example of people assuming something. and thats why no one helped her.
