Subject: RE: BS: Some rape victims should take blame
I really do not need the kind of protection that Lizzie seems to offering us poor undertrod men but I think that our children need saving from the kind of nonsense that she seems to believe.

If you choose to dress like a whore, then you'll be viewed as one.

Does that mean that if you dress in the afore mentioned manner you will be paid for sex in a business like manner or does it mean that if you are a whore you deserve to be raped?

We seem to be educating them almost to tease, to dress like any rapists fantasy

Surely to dress like a rapists fantasy you would need to be meek and subdued, not bold and forward. Besides if every girl dresses in your prescribed manner what are us poor blokes who, by your own admission, are not all rapists, going to oggle at?

If you lead someone on to believe that you want something, are 'gagging' for it, then change your mind at the last moment, chances are, you're going to get a reaction you may not like.

So, if I was to come to your house, offer you thousands of pounds, wave a few crisp twenties under you nose, take you to the bank, draw out all the money, let you see it and then... Change my mind. You would be justified in robbing me with violence? I would like to see that stand up in court.

I coukd say that this is just plain nonsense but it is worse than that. It is downright dangerous. What if anyone reading this stuff had just undergone the trauma of a sexual assault and decided against reporting it because they felt they had dressed like a whore, indulged someone elses fantasies or led them on? What if because they decided to not involve the police someone else got attacked?

I do believe in freedom of speech but this really is shouting fire in a crowded theatre. I feel it should be stopped before any harm is done.
