Lots of people think that if you don't literally say "no" at least once, it's not rape. Then there are the people that think you have to keep saying it because obviously if you say "no" then you're just playing hard to get.

I was told that I "wasn't clear enough" about not wanting to have sex with someone despite repeatedly saying "no" and "please stop" and "you're hurting me".

People will basically make poo poo up after the fact to cover their rear end and most of the time there's nothing the victim can do about it. It's your word against theirs and people will do anything to shift the blame and make it look like it was the victim's fault. What were you wearing? Why were you alone with him? Did you even try to fight back?

Edit: sorry for the :smith: post, I was just saying that even literally saying "no" makes no difference really

Agreed. It's one of the things I missed the most when GBS went down the shitter. While momentous things were going on--like the uprising in Egypt and the Boston Marathon bombing--I got up-to-the-minute information, as well a boots-on-the-ground updates from goons, in GBS threads. People could generally contain themselves and not poo poo-post at least within the first few hours to show a modicum of respect for the gravity of the situation, before cutting loose and trying to out-crap each other. That's something that's sorely missing these days.

I was in Japan a few years back during the big earthquake, and GBS was somehow one of the best sources for fact checked up to date information. It was especially helpful that mods quickly said "this is a serious thread and making Hiroshima, Godzilla and Pokemon jokes will get you banned"

It was a nice place to get a pretty balanced look at the Occupy movement, without wading through insane twitter feeds or clueless mainstream media stories.

Spoiling this because it's exceptionally creepy

Met this girl on a dating app. She came right out and said she would be up for a hook up only.
We go out and I take her back to my place. My roommate and three of his male friends are there but leave shortly. She is quiet the whole time. I ask her if anything is wrong while the six of us are talking. She says no and fiddles with her phone.
I ask her to watch a movie. She says ok. She starts talking about how she needs to leave when the movies starts. I joke with her about her promise. She laughs, I laugh. I move in to make out with her. She isn't into it at first. I ask her if she is ok. She says she is ok. She fiddles with her phone a bit (reception is really bad in my apartment/area). I gently take it from her and put it down. She seems ok with this. She smiles. I move in and try to start things again. She is into it.
Sex happens. After, I go to take a shower and I come out and she is gone. My back door is open. I drove so she doesn't have a car.
About 20 minutes later, the police come by and arrest me.
Apparently, she says she felt unsafe and I raped her and when I left to take a shower, she "fled" the house and went to the neighbors to call 911.
They found her underwear in my house and they said it had a bit of blood in it. I don't know how that could have happened but it could have been there before. The sex wasn't rough.
I am not sure where to go from here. They said I'd be assigned an public defender because I am so poor.
I didn't sign anything or admit to anything. I just told them it didn't happen like whatever she claimed.
They won't tell me if the rape kit came back positive for force or not and they won't tell me all of what she said.
WTF happened? How do I not to go to jail forever because of some crazy sensitive person who read the situation wrong? If she had told me no at all I would have stopped or asked me to take her home, I would have.

Yeah - I remember this, and at the time it was a really good source for news.

Hilariously enough, this lead to whines that GBS was 'just an RSS feed'.

Also the fact he mentions some "promise" she was close to breaking. He never mentions a promise until that line.

From the reddit thread:

quote:

Rape doesn't have to be violent. "no" is not a magical word. If consent isn't there, then its rape. By his own telling, she clearly did not consent.

she could have been MUCH more forceful

I guess you forgot, women aren't as strong as men. Escalating the issue could result in violence or death for her. She was alone, no cell reception, no transportation, and when she asked to leave he denied her, and she was clearly uncomfortable.

EDIT: he edited it too. it originally said "She said she wanted to leave, but I reminded her she promised sex and couldn't leave (she was at my place without transportation to get away)."

I think it's that "phobic" implies that a phobia is a bad thing and therefore is ableist against people with phobias. It's the same reason you see people on Tumblr censor words like "id*ot" as if it's a slur.

So at first I thought this was some laughable "The gunman must have been a closeted gay and that's why he killed everyone!" post. But no, he really was a repressed homosexual who used Grindr and frequented Pulse.

My friends dad likes to blame mass shootings on "allowing evil to exist" and believes that we don't value human life anymore. I touched the poop, and suggested that he might be looking at the past through rose-colored glasses. I mentioned the civil rights movement and the trajectory of human rights in the last few decades, and all the atrocities that took place during the era where we supposedly valued human life more.

This was what I got in response. A whole bunch of talking points that had nothing to do with my original post at all. This man is also twice my age.
