Why does her statement have to be some vast conspiracy? Is it possible that her train of tought applied simply to her own traumatic experiences and did not expand that far? Perphaps she is not interested in girls and was simply giving some of her feelings on men. What you are doing, and she said this herself, is not listening. She mentioned something terrible that happened and you went off on an tangent to berate her. Let me illustrate what you did. This is effectually what you have done: Imagine if I was to tell you that I have an unrelenting hatred of Drunk Drivers because one skided across 4 lanes of traffic and killed my wife. And then here comes Kasz216 riding on his tangent, and says: " YOUR TEH BIAZED, NOT ALL PEOPLE WHO CAUSE WRECKS ARE DRUNK DRIVERS!!!!!11!! LOL. Some times sober people cause accidents." It really doesnt matter, and that would just piss me off. |
Completely false argument. Drunk Drivers are in a car accident because they are drunk. Male Rapists are not rapists because they are male.
Your comparing them proves my point.
Her aguement would be like saying "I hate black people because one of them caused a wreck that killed my wife."
Except it wasn't even that at first because she didn't mention the assault at first.
All she stated was the equivlenet of "I hate black people because they get in car wrecks that kill people."
Not lets say you read the statement "I hate black people beacuse they get in car wrecks that kill people." Are you really going to let that statement stand?
Now then. Say you say "More people then just black people get in car accidents and car accidents that kill people. I once was in a car accident caused by a white person."
Then that reply is "That's not the same"
What conclusion would you draw... I would say even being the victim of such an account by a person doesn't give people a right to having a stereotyped bias. Gives you a better understanding of why they have that viewpoint, but does not make it excusable. Stereotypes should never be excusable.
The problem is she presented it as if only males rape.... and the fact that they rape is because they are males. Then never acknoledged the opposite except with a number meant to minamilize the amount.
Had their been a simple. Yes it happens. No arguments would of progressed further.
