[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 88017, member: 35"] According to a CNN article, "If you are a man and you log on to Twitter today, perhaps you'll now learn that sexual pestering, sexual blackmail, sexual assault -- the full gamut -- are everyday concerns for the women around you. Although one wonders. Perhaps no woman in your life has felt comfortable telling you this in the past. Perhaps you've never noticed it for yourself. Are you going to have your mind changed by the latest trending hashtag?" Here it is again. These feminists act like every man on Earth is some dumb ape that is incapable of understanding what women go through. Yes, we get that some men are shitheads that take advantage of women. But why do they always talk down to those of us who aren't rapey, as if we're somehow responsible for the men who are? Are we going to have our minds changed by a hashtag? No. Those of us who aren't committing sexual assault already realize it's a horrible thing that happens. The problem is that men are lambasted for not doing more to stop it. If we actively witness sexual assault or harassment and do nothing, I can see the problem. But there's this weird implication that we can somehow prevent it from happening in the first place, as if we're solely responsible for how these pigs turn out. Why aren't they this condescending towards their mothers? Didn't they have a hand in raising these abusers? It just feels like misdirected criticism to me. They mistakenly believe that men are oblivious to sexual assault or that they side with the predators. [/QUOTE]
