Those behind a campaign against false accusations of rape in Edmonton claim they are not advocating rape and call the"Don't Be That Guy" anti-rape campaign hate speech.
"It specifically targets a gender and all members of that gender as perpetrators of rape," said Men's Rights Edmonton in a statement.
Both rape and false accusations of rape are "abhorrent means of manipulation and power.
"As for our campaign, not once did it advocate or apologize for rape," the statement says.
The controversial posters were a modification to the original "Don't Be That Guy" campaign, whose posters read, "Just because you regret a one night stand doesn't mean it wasn't consensual."
