Ugh, society has forced me into making a thread about rape, through stupid opinions and idiotic conclusions. Without further ado, lets cast the shit out of some aspersions; RE: Victims have themselves to blame and defending rapists.
1: Being the victim of Rape because of your own stupidity does not take responsibility from those who did it.
One of the moronic things about these threads is the number of people who latch onto the idea of "The victim attended a party with alcohol. If she/he didn't want to get raped, she/he shouldn't have gone somewhere where she/he was likely to get raped." This is stupid. Plain and simple. Just because you go somewhere you COULD be raped, that does not equal that you SHOULD be raped. Nor does it equal that those who do the raping are less responsible due to your dipshittery. This is a given really, amazingly it's something that always pops up.
2: Being dressed like a slut/Man-whore does not entitle people to Rape.
Again, pops up a lot, not sure why. Legally, you are entitled to dress however you want. If your overall goal is getting raped, then my point is thus moot. However, most people who dress revealingly are doing it for... Fuck knows why, But I'm fairly sure they aren't attempting to get raped. Dressing provocatively does not put the victim at fault in any way. It makes them a dipshit for several other reasons, but it is not an excuse.
3: Rights for Rapists
Look, when this pops up, it is a little bit depressing. When we try and say that people commiting these crimes are some how "Not to blame" or "Accidental" (Pops up more than you'd expect/ want) It's a little ridiculous. These people have commited a serious crime. They are to blame one hundred percent. You cannot accidentally rape someone in the way a murder can happen accidentaly. You cannot be provoked into rape as you can with assault or murder. There is NO possibility of a rapist having done it unintentionally, not meant for it to happen, made a mistake etc. They do it because it is in their nature. Whether this is an excuse or not I cannot comment, but it takes a very sick person to gain sexual thrill over the feeling of a non-consensual partnership. When a crime like this is taken, certain liberties afforded to other criminals and victims of crime should be revoked, due to this simple fact: Rape cannot and happen accidentally.
I expect some form of backlash from some of you.
To you, I say:
And hope to god this fad ends soon...
