her sign is alright i guess. it does suggest we start from the standpoint that you're more likely to be a rapist than not but i mean, i've seen more goofy misandrist shit than that for sure. if we apply the same typical language revisionst tactics as an nth-waver we could say "HEY HOWS ABOUT LESSONS IN AND DEFINING CONSENT FOR ALL SEXES"
I don't get that at all... some dudes are rapists-to-be and any guy who's going to complain about anything that might PREVENT rape is a rape culture apologist IMO
I certainly wouldn't mind seeing this discussion become a game of oneupsmanship re: hands-on rape prevention...

good thing I'll be dead soon, cause I'm tired of liars winning
and Geoff, I was being sincere, and not trying to bust on you with the oneupsmanship!
unfortunately you have to be embedded pretty deep to even take on these kinds of missions; i.e. if you're not around scummy dudes and wasted chicks you're not really on the front lines
my record is not flawless... I guess the only sort of story in my past is when I was 18 and at a party with buddy's sister and her friend who were both 16... they were both blacked out and were mindlessly taking their clothes off to the delight of a bunch of dudes... I ushered my buddy's sister to a different zone while (I'm pretty sure) her friend got a train run on her in a bathroom

I skimmed the last page pretty quick, but if "don't rape" lecture is offensive or whatever because it suggests something about college males, isn't "how not to get raped" lecture suggesting the same thing?

I feel like a would-be rapist wouldn't be swayed by a class on how not to rape, whereas a rape prevention class would empower and increase awareness for would-be victims.

"This just doesn't make any sense. He scored straight A's in his "Don't rape that girl" class, and yet, he rapes...."
How do these fucking naive, incapable of critical thought beyond an incredibly shallow level retards end up with the idea that what they have to say is somehow important and unique enough that they have to voice it ? Is this just one of the side effects of being this fucking stupid ?
No wonder that worthless moron decries them; these are well-reasoned pieces written by sharp women who can actually write. "Oh but I don't like how they're saying it." Fuck off. You argue for women being in the home because it's all you personally are good for.
These types seek to customise feminism to fit in with their own life experiences and worldview. Ergo, if they're not suffering discrimination and stuff (poverty, lack of autonomy, insufficient childcare, lower pay, exemption from boardrooms, government and other male-dominated echelons, not to mention domestic violence, sexual assault and murder), then it isn't happening to any other woman either. Well, how could it be when it's not happening to them?
and that Mette Poynton (WTF?) was some of the worst writing I've seen in a piece that didn't include the word "blog" in the URL... the internet is absolutely ruining the internet
