I don't understand what you're saying
All i'm saying is that an attractive woman wearing hardly any clothes is much more likely to be targeted for rape because of the attention she is already drawing to herself.
That is the harsh reality. We are drawn to people who are.."pleasing" to look at.
Obviously a disabled person is less likely to be looked at in the way that a very attractive and naturally beautiful person is. There's really no way to change that, it's human nature, it's not the way it should be, everyone should be treated equal, but just because you are looking at the attractive person over the non-attractive person does not mean you are making a statement that she is not equal in comparison. You are simply preferring the outside appearance of someone over the other, we are all drawn toward different people, but a majority of the time, it's people who are "pleasing" to look at. It's not your human right to be seen equally to someone, everyone has different body structures, so yes, that's the way it is.
I tried really hard to not sound awkward while writing that, but I would like to not comment on this issue anymore .
It's not a reality though. I don't think rapists are like mm she's hot and has less clothes than the others so I'll take her.
If you are less attractive, when people do not know your inside appearance[personality, etc.] they will associate you with the only thing that they do know, your outside appearance. So if you are unpleasant to look at they are going to associate you with unpleasant thoughts.
If you are attractive, when people don't know who you are on the inside, they'll associate you with the only thing they do know you by, outside appearance, so they would associate you with pleasant thoughts.
Now tell me seriously, that a rapist is just as likely to go after someone they associate with "unpleasant" than they are as "pleasant"
I hate to be dismissive, but if you deny that point you are just being unreasonable. I'm not saying that people who are seen by the general public as unattractive do not get raped, but to deny that people who are seen by the general public as attractive are not more likely to be raped, is simply not using logic.
I'm not saying anyone DESERVES to be raped, but it is HUMAN NATURE to be more interested in people who's outside appearance you associate with good thoughts.
You need to stop being an idealist, and start being a realist. If you don't know who someone is on the inside, you are going to associate them with their outside appearance, there may be a few exceptions, but it is human nature, you can train yourself to not do this, which is admirable and respectable to not judge someone based on their looks, i get it, but you are always going to have some bias based on their outside appearance, because that is all you have to go on before having an interaction, and if you can be real for a second, do you really think a Rapist wants to disregard a persons outside appearance for the sake of equality? Because that is LUUUUUUUUUUNACY.
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.
