No, you didn't say you held that yourself, you imputed it to others:

No doubt. Prison is a rough environment, but tu quoque is never a proper justification, and that renders this point a red herring. The topic under discussion is how women carry themselves in open society as free people, not how prisoners react to strong negative pressures with further antisocial behavior -- and equivocating the two is very inapt.

Well, you're certainly not acknowledging that they're not conforming to your overbroad generalization, now are you? And how is that not ignoring their points?
And -- I'm not "white-knighting" anyone. I'm speaking my mind, and pointing out how you're imputing views that haven't been aired here in such an overbroad manner that those points reveal more about you than anyone else.
Don't like it? Tough shit.
Don't worry, you'll live.

I am not equivocating the two, I'm pointing out the undeniable fact that males do most of the raping, even of other males. Would you like to take a look at female prisons? http://www.copblock.org/149319/massive-f...on-in-u-s/ Forced prostitution and rape by male guards/wardens/chaplains.
I responded to posts I took issue with, I gave kudos to one's I agreed with. You would despise me even more if I responded to every single post.
I took issue with the notion that it's okay to get black out drunk and think you'll be safe from harm.
If you don't like people taking some responsibility for the situations they end up in, tough shit.
