I was following this story out of The University of Virginia on this suppose gang rape of a woman named Jackie that is falling apart based on the lack of evidence and that those charged were not even questioned by the female journalist on the story. A feminist lady said before the story fell apart that men in this country hated women. Is this true? Do you ladies on this site believe that the reason we have the epidemic of rapes is because men hate women in this country? I think this is bogus. The feminists who seem to have the spotlight never address the mass rapes being committed around the world. Are foreign men hateful of women? I think women in this country have it better than women in many other countries. Men in this country put women on pedestals and we respect them.
For one... I ran all the women off with my endless victim hood rantings Two...who would actually believe 'men hate women' when all we do is put them on pedestals, lol. Women and children first....no female selective service.....shielding women from combat arms...opening doors for them...widespread condemnation for hitting them....absolutely no say when it comes to abortion.......list goes on and on If these lesbian feminazis want to see women hated by men, they need to go to the Middle East, where a donkey has more value and the female orgasm doesn't exist
Rape isn't just a women's issue. It is a human issue. Not all victims are women and not all perpetrators are men.
Basically lol Just another radical shouting bullshit Only thing worse are the people who actually cosign it
I think women probably have it best (or more equal) in Scandinavian countries. We objectify women as sexual objects and in much of the developing world they are treated as property like herd animals, but neither scenario allows them their full humanity.
BS It ain't a human issue if only one demographic has to suffer it. Most victims are women and most perps are men (excluding prison of course) I think its a mental health issue like murder if you can do such a horrific act there is clearly something mentally wrong with you and it needs to be addressed in order to stop the action.
People are immoral. Moral behavior is something else than health. "Not healthy" means that any warped perception, thought and action structures are present that cause violate acts. But most people know what is forbidden, but out of selfish reasons, they still decide to do. So this is not sick, it's immoral. Healthy people are not in general good people. Sick people are not automatically bad people. Everyone is able to do everything. Everyone is able to kill, to rape, to show a sadistic behavior. The question, whether you do or not, is your decision, the great deal of your self-control.
I completely disagree most people don't have it in them to do shit like that. Even in the poorest of countries you don't see a re-enactment of the Hunger Games because most humans don't have it in them to kill unless directly threatened. I believe most men don't have it in them to rape and there have been countless studies done on serial rapists and its deemed not a behavioral problem which is why so many of them have to be put on drugs to dull away sexual desire. Everyone isn't capable of horrific acts, believe it or not most people are passive.
Murder is often done out of greed,envy, or revenge. That's not related to mental illness. What mental health disorder do you think causes people to rape?
You say it yourself that everyone is able..when you are threatened, you make the decision to loose your self-control and to kill, in this moment your life is more valuable than moral or the consequences. . I won't give those rapists and killers a free pass to do whatever they like, because I assume they are sick. I don't believe that. It's a concious decision of them to go that way. And moral has nothing to do with being poor. During my travels I've had to recognize that poor people are many times very well educated by their parents. But kids of rich people seem to fail in that case, they are raised as someone special, they seem to expect different rules in life
It's interesting that taking life for things like envy greed and revenge isn't considered a mental illness. It's very telling about our society. Truthfully I don't know what causes people to rape but to cause such suffering without remorse speaks to something deeply broken in a person. I don't think its our natural inclination to rape.
Well in a kill or be killed situation it's understandable if not expected to choose ones own survival. And who said anything about giving them a free pass? But a different approach on how to handle them is needed because simply punishing people for sexual offenses doesn't seem to curb the epidemic much.
Most rape victims in the U.S. are men. Just because they are in prison dosen't make them any less victimized. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2449454/More-men-raped-US-women-including-prison-sexual-abuse.html
An evil person could make you want to kill them out of revenge rather easily. Depending on what they did to you, your feelings of revenge could be rather rational and natural. Its up to you to be strong enough to resist the urge and do what's right. Its not our natural inclination to rape, but that doesn't automatically put it in the category of mental illness. They say rape is about power. If that is true, its not hard to believe that people rape because they lack morals. I have met plenty of people that have an obvious need for power, but most of them satisfy their need in a more healthy way like working their way up the latter in a company ect....
Case in point. If someone rapes you, I bet you would want to kill them. That's still considered murder.
I never said it made them less vicitimized but when we talk about the issue of rape we are generally talking about the outside world and the dynamics that lead to it. In prison as you guys stated its more of a power thing, nothing takes away a man's power more so than being raped since our power comes from our physical strength. And there is a deep sickness in person to forcefully push themselves on someone, to ignore the tears and the blood and looks of anguish on the face of a victim is literally disgusting and you'd have to be sick in some way for it to have no effect on you. I think if someone raped me and I killed them I think a large part of it would come from me trying to make sure it never happened again. And if it's a natural feeling and logical reaction then it has nothing to do with morality then right?
