Subject: RE: BS: Some rape victims should take blame
ok lizzie, you are never going to see sense, but here goes anyway.

one the one hand you say rape is never acceptable, but then go on to say it is invited and not the mans fault.

remember when you were young and experimenting? you cannot not have a line. that line says what you are comfortable with. when messing around when you are younger, is natural, but what you are saying is by starting any sexual behaviour is an open ivitation for sex.
no matter what.

ok, a silly comparison. at a festie a few years ago. we give people hugs and kisses on the cheek to people we know, when we haven't seen them for a while. one bloke, gave me a kiss, then licked the side of my face.

are you saying i should not have been upset because i had no right to draw 'the line' at a peck and a hug?

as for men having rights, of course they do! how stupid are you to think that i am not as disgusted as you when women make false accusations? it hurts everyone, the accuser, in case anything does happen in the future, the accused, his reputation, his self worth and his trust.
personally i think you are part of the reason society thinks the way it does about rape, you say one one hand it is outragous and barbaric, then justify it by saying that men are 'lead on'.

which is it lizzie?

i know that i shouldn't let you get to me, as you have no basis for thinking the way you do. you have no empathy for how we feel when you say such stupid, contradictory things. however on this subject as anyone might imagine i get rather passionate and will NOT let you make anyone feel bad or guilty for having had such a horrific experiance.
