A campaign is underway to bring date rape to the forefront. It’s ironic that guys are finding the posters offensive….which is telling of how little men understand the devastation of rape. I can tell you there isn’t a woman looking at the posters and not feeling anxiety and fear and vulnerability.
Someone put up posters protesting the campaign. Note how the headline writer frames this as anti-feminist….instead of anti-woman. It seems like a minor change of words, but has a huge impact because it’s easy to hate feminists, but if they say “woman”….that would be harder to justify.
And I think it is absolutely rape when a woman is intoxicated and is not able to give her consent. And what kind of guy would take advantage of that?? Any decent man, no matter how much he desires her, is going to do the right thing and take her home and let her sleep it off. If he wants to have sex with her, he will wait until she is sober. A good man will want the woman to come to him willingly.
