Brazilian women: "We don't deserve to be raped!"

I applaud them all for their stand.

Article here.

Great article but a waste here where most forums have more than a little hostility towards women who are not here to act like sluts.

Not to mention ownership that claims a rule against rape stories yet has a non consent section that contains countless number of them

The lit answer to the women of brazil would be yes you do.
 
Actually I am quite knowledgeable about the rapes in Brazil. This has been, to my knowledge, going on since the early 1990's.

However, my point was, I thought that anything activist belongs in the general forum.
 
Probably for good reason.
The Café is a kind of free-for-all forum, topic-wise - pretty much whatever strikes us as interesting or discussable. BDSM Talk is more limited to topics, issues, concerns, and/or questions about BDSM as a culture or specific BDSM activities.

Suggestion to everyone reading the article: Don't scroll down and read the comments. The sound of the point whizzing over nearly all the commentors' heads is practically deafening.

Where I live, journalists often refer to the stream of comments after an article in the papers as "the urinal" and not the most polite word for urinal either.
 
No one deserves to be raped. Not men, women and sure as hell not children.

Unless it's in a predetermined scenario, no means no and that should be respected. Rape fantasy, be it online or in real life, is very different than rape reality.

Rape's been going on for millennia, doesn't make it right.

Would this mean that you think anyone who publishes Nabokov is in favour of underage sex?
 
What aggravates me on these types of stats - aside from the rape issue itself - is that there are women agreeing that other women deserve to be raped.

It's like women who blame the "other woman" when their husbands/boyfriends have an affair. The "other woman" doesn't have a monogamy agreement with you, she hasn't been lying to you, she owes you nothing. Yet, I can't count the times I've heard the "other woman" vilified and the male partner excused because, "That's just how guys are." WTF!!! :mad:

Its bad enough that rape blame is assessed to the woman; its inexcusable that other women are colluding in it. And, seriously, if guys are such ravening beasts they can't be held responsible for walking around unchaperoned why are we letting them run free in the wild at all? :rolleyes:

Mind boggling.

Why would anything activist belong on the general forum? Have you ever ventured over to that forum? :eek:
 
Why did I read the comments? It looks like the general board down there. :mad:

Ugh!
 
Good for them. It seems amazing that we'll probably have colonised Mars before this message gets through to people.
