@jk_rowling Besides the crimes themselves, the awful thing is that no one could be stupid enough to not fully expect this to happen and they just don't care. Because women being abused is just accepted par for the course.
@salltweets I think they are signifying that their hearts & minds are fundamentally with men, they do not consider women separately from men at all.
@hailmaggs I think as a woman, I've always known a man can behave from scary to threatening to violent to utter depravity but you think that's an individual, a lone wolf. Lately all the news is about packs of men & that I find really depressing, that not one of them will stop the others.
@parry_troy@JessamyRx What about the sister ? What is she supposed to learn from her brother's behaviour. Clearly she was not enjoying the 'game' as she was trying to leave, only to be blocked & laughed at. That her distress is his fun ? Where is your concern for the girl in this scenario ?
@modconomics@JessamyRx Behaviour that's 'fun' for the bigger, stronger person. Imagine yourself wanting to leave a room & physically not allowed to, while being laughed at & tell me it's a good feeling. Even in 'teasing', you are being told the other person controls all & you get to suck it up.
@Megan_With_No_H Re Christy's comment, seems to me what he is really saying is that men WILL rape if given the chance. He's blaming the woman because he has zero decency standards for men ie why bother condemning a snake for being a snake. His opinion of men is actually lower than yours.
@Cornell Seems you treat the futures of male students with great gravitas, protecting them, albeit with a little slap on the wrist, no matter what they do. But by doing so, you have actually damaged the innocent young men attending there with the stink of Cornell. Resignations needed.
@infobellusci@QasimRashid Instead of the good v bad man narrative that's out there, imo it's closer to the truth that "decent, normal" men sometimes display very bad behaviour with women & afterwards go back to "decent, normal" behaviour. Maybe one episode, maybe many.
@infobellusci@QasimRashid I sometimes wonder do men think there are good men and bad men. Because from my life experience the thing I know, as a woman, is that some men who in every other situation in life present as good men can turn awful when they have decided they are getting sex one way or the other.
