Rape Culture? What is this “Rape Culture” you speak of?
Seriously though, this is terrifying. God forbid I wear a skirt outside — I’m just ASKING to be raped if I do that.
The 58% statistic actually terrifies me more than any other. Suddenly change the word and you don’t care?
No one will ever be able to convince me that words hold no power.
Are you FUCKING kidding me right now
I love how more than half dont understand what the definition of rape is and/or think that by changing the words around they can get away with it. See by changing the words to something equally horrible but not the word ‘rape’ they can feel better about themselves. I need a good derp gif, anyone got one?
yeah, like even if you change the wording, the words still say "force women to have sex." how is that better? it might even be worse, because "rape" is just a word, but "forcing someone to have sex" is the definition, and that makes it scarier.
that's like being asked if you'd "commit arson" and 58% of them saying "no, but i would burn someone's house down." it sounds even worse when you describe it by its definition and call it what it is. it's like they're admitting that it's a horrible thing to do and they would do it anyway.
