“Repeat Rape: How do they get away with it?”, Part 1 of 2. (link to Part 2)

Sources:

  1. College Men: Repeat Rape and Multiple Offending Among Undetected Rapists,Lisak and Miller, 2002 [PDF, 12 pages]
  2. Navy Men: Lisak and Miller’s results were essentially duplicated in an even larger study (2,925 men): Reports of Rape Reperpetration by Newly Enlisted Male Navy Personnel, McWhorter, 2009 [PDF, 16 pages]

Knowledge is a seed; sow it.

Pretty much.

And that’s not all. 43% of college men will admit to using “coercive behavior” to have sex with a woman… which of course is also rape.

Rape culture trains sociopaths.

this is good to have. I always want these studies and I always have trouble finding them via google.

This is very informative and super interesting. These men obviously know that rape is wrong—if you use the word rape, they freak out, because they know rape is wrong. But the problem is, they don’t seem to know what rape IS…because what they’ve admitted to is definitely rape.

  1. Don’t assume those you intend to help even wanted your help.
  2. You are not there to ‘help’ anyone. Help assumes you are in authority and they depend on you.
  3. You are there to work with people.
  4. Those people are not charity cases: they are human beings with feelings history and personal identities.  Like you. Treat them as such.
  5. That means stop thinking its so goddamn ’beautiful’ to hold a black child’s hand or ‘inspiring’ when you wear their clothes and practice their customs or ‘amazing’ when you see a person wear western clothes.

A kid was walking around school wearing this today and didn’t receive a single comment from administration.

Meanwhile, I was pulled over twice by them to mention how “incredibly short” my bottoms were.

Last time I checked, my shorts don’t reference blowjobs.

Quit sexualizing things that aren’t meant to be suggestive.

Hello double standards.

Being a Fan of Something Does Not Mean That

ughfandoms-in-general:

  • you have to love it unconditionally
  • you cannot say that there are things wrong with it
  • you have to quantify your love for it
  • you cannot live without it
  • your entire existence revolves around it
  • you have to be in a fandom

if you like something, you like it. if you love something, you love it.

you ain’t gotta prove anything to anyone.

The harassment has led to tumblr not being fun for me anymore.  Congrats. You win.  My emotional health is compromised.  I hope you’re proud.

Ugh, people are such assholes. I’m so sorry this has been happening to you. By all means - take a break if you need to. I’ll miss your posts, but you gotta do what you gotta do to take care of yourself. Just know that there are people out there who appreciate what you have to say.
