i'd say that perhaps what is actually said is that a woman by dressing in a provocative fashion may have a greater chance of catching the eye of a rapist

i'd say that this is true a woman who is showing off more skin than normal will draw the attention of the men around her more than if she was not

Actually, there have been studies showing that attire is not a major motivating factor in how rapists choose their victims. Instead, they find that rapists tend to foremost target women with more passive and submissive body language, who generally tend to dress more conservatively.

Why is this addressed to me and not Tachikoma?

Why does it need to be addressed to Tachi?

It was her story, her point.

You replied to it. We're on a forum.

You even spoke for her. Why don't you talk to her and find out her opinion instead of assuming it?

What did I say for her and what did I assume?

Anyway if you have an issue why don't you PM me or write on my wall?

It's not an issue I'm invested in enough to pursue, I just thought you should bring it up with her, that's all. Peace.

Can't piss of a girl cause she will claim rape.

Can't play with kids or have a camera on the beach cause you will be a pedo.

That last bit is painfully true, I'm Japanese, my husband is white, we were in the UK not too long ago with our daughter (who for the most part looks mostly japanese), i left him with her in a mall to use he bathroom, and when I came back a woman was stood next to him with a security guard attempting to hold him down for "abusing someones kid", all the while he was saying "what the hell, its MY DAUGHTER", when i ran over and asked what the hell, the security guard instantly turned to me and said "is this your daughter", I obviously sad yes, and before i could say another word he says "we've caught this man trying to interfere with your child", the police have been called and are on their way.

I was like, HELLO, IDIOT, THATS MY HUSBAND, AND HER FATHER.

Stupid ass woman stuck her nose in the air and says "hmpf, doesnt look like it" and walks off, meanwhile the security guard borderline forces us to stay until the police arrive, to "double check".

People need to stop being so fucking retarded and paranoid, all they ever seem to do is attack others and the second the person/group they attack so much as raise an eyebrow, they play the victim card and the media both laps it up and sides with them.

Firstly a sad story and such a disgrace that it happened.

The reason I brought that up is because they did a social experiement on one of the news shows here in Australia. They got a Guy to go to a beach with a camera and he was taking photos of the ocean might I add. Then within like 5mins all these so called child protectors come over informed life gurargs at the beach and he was told to go away.

Then 30 mins later they did the same experiment with a woman. She was actually taking photos of kids and stuff and not one person gave a shit.

 

As for the girl bit, unfortunetly there is a lot of crazy woemn out there these days who cry rape if you piss them off. Then you get articles were a woman is complaining that men do not approach r anymore at the bar and hit on her and that men have become weak pussy cats who don't knwo how to woo a lady. I WISH I BOOKMARKED IT, was a great read. If I find it in my history from 5 months ago I will post it. This supposed mythical rape culture has cause men to be reluctant to talk to women. They will wait for the woman to approach him.

Their was an airline that refused to let single men sit next to unnacompanied children due to "the high risk single men present to unnacompanied minor's".

Wonder what would happen if their took race or religion into consideration for matter like that?

yep I saw that story. That poor guy would have been shamed so badly on the plane.

I won't. Feel free fucking prostitutes in it. And have fun I guess...

If the white man was not her father she'd be thanking the lady.

Someone put two and two together and things went wrong. Shit happens.

If the white man wasnt the father, i would have to have just left my not-even-1-year-old baby alone on the bench in the middle of a shopping mall (no pushchair) for that to have been the case, in which instance there is just as much blame to be placed in the mother than the person holding the baby.

So, to be blunt, If the white man wasnt the father, the baby wouldnt have been left in the first place.

WTF is wrong with some peole? You don't become a rapist from a video game. You need that special "fucked up in the head" as well...


So you are saying that Rapist are just people who are messed up in the head? Our culture plays no part?

So you would treat your wife like this because our culture likes to watch this show?
