[Serious] PSA: Rape Apologetics

[tackattack]

Then let’s use modern day examples. Movies and commercials and add imply that women are x or should be y. None of those x or y variables are property. I assume, women may feel like property if they believe they need to be x or y but it simply isn’t true. Property is something I can purchase and own and have full control and rights over. No commercial, religious book, ancient text or movie has ever made me feel that way about women. Why? Because I don’t believe other people should ever be owned. I don’t think I could ever own anything with a will of it’s own. Whether we r talking pets, women, children or advanced AI cyborgs. Now if I did want to own any of those things I could point to a myriad of sources that make that seem like the right thing, but that’s all it is, a justification. It could be a right or a wrong justification, but that doesn’t mean that it’s the source of the belief that it’s ok. I simply don’t believe anything with a will of it’s own CAN be property by my definition.

Edit: if you’d like an exegesis on Christian views of a woman’s role that would be another thread.
