Quote:I am a women and a rape victim and I strongly disagree. Thunderfoot is right.Irrelevant, the fact you are a victim or a woman doesn't lend you any more credibility. I'm a bullying victim, that doesn't make my points about bullying valid (automatically)
Quote:2. Prevention is something women should be taught just the same.You already are and it doesn't work sweetheart
Quote:Dressing provocatively where it is dangerous is stupid. Looking or acting like a victim is stupid. It's as stupid and flashing cash in a dark alley or leaving your doors unlocked. Getting mugged when flashing cash doesn't make theft right, but it does make the victim stupid.This would be perfect if it wasn't for the fact that rape happens to... Just guess... Different kinds of bodies with different clothing, including burqas, niqabs and headscarves. I'm always amused by this analogy because while flashing cash is increasing the chances, it's at least something you can know and understand, while rape comes from someone you know and trust and therefore it's not preventable.
Quote:Yes, there are societies and parts of society (professional and college sports for example) where rape is winked at. That's wrong. But women should be taught about the dangers of bumping shoulders, let alone showing thighs and cleavage to such society.That has no effect on rape. You have ugly and beautiful being raped, and even some older women as well. Clothing doesn't increase the chances - In fact, the only relevant data for being raped is meeting new men
Quote:And I've since gotten off at the wrong stop in the wrong dress. I will tell you that body language can be a life saver. Don't ever act like a victim. It's the ticket to being one.Do you mean the body language you use against the men you know and trust minimally? I thought it was relaxed
Quote:The advice he gives in his video is good advice.Not really. I talk not as a victim but as a criminal law student who has studied facts from various crimes, including rape (I did some papers)... Clothing and body language is almost irrelevant if not completely irrelevant. But you can always prove otherwise.
The case T makes of body language is against psychopathic violent rapists, but those are serial criminals and a minority compared to the rest of the population

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
