I agreed with your whole post, but wanted to comment on this part.


Exactly! This 100x!

If you're the type of guy who can't control yourself if you've been drinking or doing drugs, then don't put yourself in a situation where you might break the law, embarrass your family name, and become a ****ing rapist.

And people are arguing AGAINST that. SMH.
I think you have reading comprehension issues, bc literally NO ONE has said that.

They have just said that rape is 0% your fault no matter what you are wearing, etc.

It's because we've just resigned ourselves into believing that it doesn't matter what we do... we're going to be raped, and we want to be victims, keep it to ourselves and just suck it up because we don't want people to know how stupid we are for not having the common sense that God gave a rock..... according to one poster.

FIVE RAPE PREVENTION TIPS

1) If someone is drunk, don’t rape them.

2) When you see someone walking by themselves, leave them alone.

3) Use the Buddy System! If it is difficult for you to stop yourself from raping someone, ask a trusted friend to accompany you at all times.

4) Carry a rape whistle. If you find that you are about to rape someone, blow the whistle until someone comes to stop you.

5) Don’t forget: honesty is the best policy. When asking someone out, don’t pretend that you are interested in them as a person. Tell them straight up that you expect to be raping them later. If you don’t communicate your intentions, they may take it as a sign that you do not plan to rape them.

LOL. Did you get this from somewhere else, or just make it up.

Colleges should provide this as like a 10 commandments that all frats have to hang up in their living room.

Have you noticed that the poster that you just quoted has laid all the blame on women not using common sense and not one word about men who rape? ( other than oh yeah it's a crime) it's our responsibility to make sure that we're not vulnerable and none of the blame extends to the rapist himself. It's all on us! Dumb s**** that we are.
Can't blame the rapist because if we weren't out there.... he can't rape us!

Nevermind the fact that men and boys can also be raped. It happens, and it's just as horrible, but in those cases, the victim is almost never questioned about his location, attire, or use of alcohol or other drugs. It's accepted as a given that he didn't somehow invite it.

•Approximately 60% of rapes take place in either the victim's home or the home of someone the victim knows.
•When I was a rape crisis counselor, the oldest victim in our town was 84, the youngest was 8 months. Neither one had alcohol or drugs in their system; neither one was dressed provocatively.
•Most rape victims know their rapist
•1/6 of American women have experienced a rape or attempted sexual assault in their lifetime
•1/5 of American women will be raped at some point in their lifetime

Yes, young women--unfortunately, in the United States, a supposed "civilized" nation--must be cautioned/instructed on how to reduce their chances of being sexually assaulted by men. This does not mean that they should be held accountable when making unwise choices, in terms of the company they keep or the locations in which they find themselves. The only person responsible for rape is the rapist. Regardless of the circumstances, no person has a right--at any time, under any circumstance--to sexually assault anyone--man, woman, or child.

The problem is not the behavior or dress of the victim; the problem is, in part, a culture that glorifies the sexual objectification of women (note: over 30% of the people in this country voted for a presidential candidate who boasted about helping himself to women's bodies; 30 years ago, this would have been unthinkable). The other problem is that parents are not doing their job in teaching young boys the notion of moral accountability in connection with male honor and responsibility.
