…but when it’s a woman’s body it’s “confusing”.
Told my male friend I would never in my wildest dreams move to shithole Texas because a dog has more rights than I do. He had a moment of clarity afterwards.
I had a job offer (actually several job offers) for a company in Houston. My experience, however, over the two days of interviews actually started my ban on ever setting foot on US soil again.
This was 1998. I can’t even imagine what it’s like now.
In my personal experience, men understand consent perfectly well. They just pretend not to to gaslight you into believing it was a misunderstanding. There’s a lot less consequences for a “misunderstanding” than a knowing violation of consent.
That’s what it’s really about. Escaping the consequences for their actions.It’s deeply disturbing how many men think once they marry a women they are entitled to anything in her purse. No. That is not how this works.
Anyone whi claims to not understand is using that as a smokescreen. Because guarantee they know the difference when we’re talking about these things happening to them.
Yep! Rapists understand they’re raping the victim. Its impossible for them to not know that there needs to be consent. They do it anyway

thanks for your comment, but unfortunately this community is intended for women only. Hope you understand! 💛
This post has got SIX DOWNVOTES. Several people have actually downvoted a piece about rape being inexcusable! Ffs! Thanks for sharing this @ZDL@ttrpg.network the downvotes show there’s a need for it. Wear them with pride.
One or two of those downvotes come from the people who automatically do knee-jerk downvotes of anything that has Chinese in it. Like my username. (I use that username in that form specifically to find the sinophobes, see.)
The rest come from people who don’t understand consent. You know: wannabe rapists.
your username is “ZDL” for me, I use Voyager though so that might be the issue lol
Ah. I guess Voyager doesn’t show the handle part: 🇨🇦🇩🇪🇨🇳张殿李🇨🇳🇩🇪🇨🇦
I use Connect and it displays your name as cadecncndeca above the comment. Which is just the country codes of the flags. On your profile though it displays it correctly.
Ah of course there’s the racism as well

Authoritarian states hate social media that doesn’t kowtow to them.

hey, we have a rule to not discuss politics, this space is meant to be low stress and a break from endless political discussion elsewhere on Lemmy, thank you 😊
Apologies.
hey no worries, thanks for understanding 💕
Why would you say this?

What does that have to do with anything? Do you think people in Cuba don’t experience SA? Or that they don’t understand having your shit stolen?
Strawman argument

Well, robbery. Armed robbery requires, you know, arms. As in armaments. (And all forms of robbery are stealing.)

thanks for your response, but unfortunately this community has a no-politics rule, sorry :-(
Oh wow, that’s a very broad rule for a Women’s sub! Good luck upholding that, earnestly! Great community you have here
yes, esp. in a women’s community (you could argue “woman” is a political category, among other things)
but we had feedback from the community survey that politics was a stressful topic for our users, and while they also broadly wanted more feminism here, they also didn’t want politics.
