    I've never understood how giving advice like this is victim blaming.

    @IndicaDreaming8 years ago When I was 20 I was kicked out of college because a girl said I tried to break into the shower and sexually assault her. I had other females who lived in the same dorm as me defend me and say that it didn't happen but they were told it was 'none of their business' and when they couldn't actually find any proof they told me 'you're a big guy, you are intimidating' and I was kicked off... Just like that... Her word against mine, with people actually defending me who lived with myself and the person who accused me... But no, because I'm a 'big guy' and 'could have' assaulted this girl if I wanted to, then I must have! But only women are victims of course!!! ... 1607

    @palaceofwisdom94489 years ago No one calls it "victim blaming" if you tell a child not to talk to strangers, or when you tell loved ones to drive safe at the end of a gathering.  If you tell women not to get blackout drunk, you're calling for women to be RESPONSIBLE for themselves, and that's a concept feminists will fight tooth and nail.  Responsibility is only supposed to apply to men. ... 828

Thankfully texting and the time and date shown on the text proved my innocence . Guys, watch out cause there are some girls out there that don't give a rats ass if they get u in trouble or not. As long as they can save their reputation or relationship. Not all but some girls will LIE! ... 233

    @TheToledoTrumpton9 years ago So let me get this straight.
    A female student can have 1 beer, go round to a male student's house, take off her clothes, lie on the floor with her legs open, begging him to have sex with her.  Then when the deed is over stand up and accuse him of rape.
    And he will be expelled no questions asked?
    Or have I missed something?

    @graymatters75845 years ago Brilliant discussion, as usual. So glad I missed all of this nonsense. I hate to say it, but it's my generation that raised these infantile youngsters who can't take responsibility for their poor decisions.
    If you give young women the power to destroy young men, an alarming number of them are going to use it. Why? Because they can. I know many young men, and none of them is sexually active as a result of this nonsense. And I don't blame them. So then I read articles which shame young men for having less sex than previous generations. They're being called "losers" for simply not knowing how to navigate this insane culture. They can't win. Better to just retreat into video games and internet porn. This is progress?

  • @
    @Floandrews3 years ago Not only do situations like this take away all chemistry between men and women. I cannot think of a bigger turn off as a woman than a man asking for consent before everything he does and then checking in mid sex to check in still consenting... surely men KNOW when they’re doing something wrong. Read the vibe, read the body language... if you both wanna get it on then get it on. But also, as both a rape victim and sexual assault victim , these stories diminish sexual assault so much that rape and assault victims are no longer taken seriously. Regretting what was at the time consensual sex the next day, is not assault. Having said that... I do believe it’s rape if a woman or man is drunk to the point of clearly not being able to consent and the assaulted is clear headed enough to know what they’re doing. ... 2
  • @
    @QueenSoap5 years ago I agree with parts of what Joe is saying, but there are different levels of being drunk which complicates this topic. Unfortunately young people in college may not yet know their limits. Most adults who've been drinking for a long time know what they can handle. There's a difference between being tipsy and being blackout drunk. If a woman can barely move or hold herself up and you can still walk...you should not be trying to have sex with that girl. If you're the same level as drunk as the person...that brings in other complications. Also...sometimes it's not so obvious that a person is blackout drunk because they're functioning pretty well. The reality is drinking (when you're young) complicates things for everyone involved. Part of the solution is perhaps teaching young people how to drink responsibly. We're so caught up on telling people not to drink until they're 21, but the reality is people are going to do it and the same way we've pushed people to have safe sex if they're going to do it...we need to do the same with drinking. When I was in college, I met these girls who told me that when they go out that they plan on getting "black-out" drunk which sounded insane to me. Both young men and young women need to understand that if they choose to drink to a point of being completely out of control then the night might end really badly for both people involved...this is not victim blaming, but we need to encourage people to make better decisions. ... 5

    @BWater-yq3jx5 years ago The trouble is there's a continuum, as Joe says. But how do you pick the point at which 'warm & fuzzy' changes to 'not responsible for your actions'?
    The only solution, as I see it, is to stop drinking at the point where you're still in control.
    And I would also apply this to other cases where people use being drunk as an 'out': At some point they made the choice to keep drinking - knowing they would start losing control of themselves.

    I raised my hand and asked her, "What if both parties were drunk?" because in the military it is already illegal to have sex while drunk. The feminist was silent, looked at me, and started crying her eyes out. Then everyone looked at me like I was some kind of fuck up. I swear this happened. ...

    @Kira1Lawliet5 years ago One of things that piss me off most is that good, sensible advice has now been relegated to "victim blaming". "Don't get blackout drunk at a party", "Don't wear overly revealing clothes", "Don't act overly flirty if you have no intention of sexually engaging anyone" are all considered victim blaming, even though each of these examples is simply good advice to avoid getting yourself into these situations where you make yourself vulnerable to rape. Nobody gets offended when people suggest you carry a weapon with you when you walk through a dark, abandoned alley at night—nobody says that's blaming people who get robbed. It's just common sense. Feminists and other people need to stop calling sexism or victim blaming on these kinds of comments. There ARE things you can and should do to prevent yourself from getting harrassed, even if what might happen isn't necessarily your fault. ... 1

    16 If a malicious witness arises to accuse a person of wrongdoing,
    17 then both parties to the dispute shall appear before the LORD, before the priests and the judges who are in office in those days.
    18 The judges shall inquire diligently, and if the witness is a false witness and has accused his brother falsely,
    19 then you shall do to him as he had meant to do to his brother. So you shall purge the evil from your midst.
    20 And the rest shall hear and fear, and shall never again commit any such evil among you. - Deuteronomy -20

    @stevencalkum91288 years ago saying that the state imposing itself inside personal relationships is a conservative action is ridiculous.

    @rycoatney7 years ago Good conversation to be having, thank you.
  • @
    @aikaterineillt98767 years ago Men should be expected to set boundaries and respect anyone they want to get involved with on any level just as much as women should be expected to keep themselves safe and in a state of mind that increases that safety net of rationale.
    And men should not be succumbing to alcohol to alter their decision making just as much as women should.
    It's a two way street when it comes to two relatively ethical human beings.
    But when you throw in a predator into the mix, the fault shifts onto that predatory monster who knows exactly what they are doing. And even if the woman (or man) put themselves into a position of frailty, no blame should be set upon them. A person should be able to get drunk wherever, whenever, (as long as they aren't driving or in a position to harm anyone else) without worrying about getting raped or taken advantage of.
    Also last time I checked, men weren't bears. Poor analogy. Literally sounds like you are promoting the more severe feminist agenda with that one. You want to be treated equally, and not demonized....Don't compare yourself to animals with no idea of right or wrong.
    Oh And rapists and those who commit sexual assault ARE bad people.
    They are monsters.
    Go ahead, let anyone tell them so.
    Sure that shouldn't be the main focus (main focus should be preventing this type of thing in the first place) but it's not irrelevant.
    Besides all that,
    I honestly don't know why colleges/universities are still permitted to handle these issues on their own. It should be a police matter. An outsider looking in.
    Colleges failed women by being in charge of how assault accusations were handled, and now they are failing some men as well by still trying their hands at this issue.
    They don't know what the fuck they are doing. I don't think they ever will.
