Aziz Ansari Doesn't Pick Up On "Non-Verbal Cues" and Gets Treated Like A Rapist
RE: Aziz Ansari Doesn't Pick Up On "Non-Verbal Cues" and Gets Treated Like A Rapist
(January 21, 2018 at 1:10 pm)Shell B Wrote: Neither was anybody on the "other side" of this debate. There is no definitive victim or non-victim, so people can't be said to be "victim-blaming." If it turns out she was definitively assaulted, we'd have another attitude. Furthermore, no one is blaming her. They're not saying, "It's your fault such and such happened to you." They are questioning whether it was assault based on her and his actions, which is how you analyze any scenario like this. To victim blame, you have to say something like, "It's her fault she had that dick in her face because she was wearing a short skirt." not, "It's unclear whether this is assault because she appears to have given consent and then decided later that she didn't consent." (I'm not going to argue whether anyone's interpretations of the events is the same as mine. We've been over this.) What revived this thread was a wall of text aimed aimed at insulting those who disagree.

My issue is with those proclaiming that nothing untoward happened. That's all, nothing more.
If The Flintstones have taught us anything, it's that pelicans can be used to mix cement.
