Erica, Someone To Watch Over Me Shirt, but your experience doesn’t change the reality that you really can’t teach sociopaths to refrain from rape. If you could, you could teach them to refrain from every other crime, couldn’t you. If you were not able to physically fight off your rapist, maybe you should be looking into training with a handgun.By the way, do you believe that the man who raped you did so because he just was never taught that rape is wrong? I don’t wish to hurt your feelings.

I’m sorry you were raped. It shouldn’t have happened. But I believe that the approach of “teaching boys to not rape” is an implausible solution. Erica LaVoie I’m so sorry to hear you went through such a horrific experience. The rapist is weak you are the strong one. You are not a victim. You are a survivo. I can’t believe someone said you should label yourself as a victim instead of a survivor. No, not all men are rapists but most rape is by a male. No matter how many men try to defend the fact, it’s true.
I am so sorry for all those stupid comments. Don’t listen to them, they are just beyond ignorant. You are strong. You will have to realize not everyone will be supportive, or believe you, some may even blame you. It’s 100% wrong, but that’s reality. And that’s okay. We will rise up and be strong together. effrey, the point that is missed is there are people subjected to unwanted sexual experiences (perpetrated by men at significantly higher rates than by women.) By men who may not consider their actions ‘rape’.

Not talking about sociopathy. Regular guys who learn about sexual boundaries from their buddies and more frequently porn. ‘Normal’ kid stuff. Sex with a person passing in and out of consciousness is not consensual sex. Even if it started that way. That was never spelled out for me. I know personally and have worked with many victims and perps. These ‘regular guys’ aren’t evil rapists. No hiding in bushes. Just operating out of a belief system that doesn’t respect the body of another person
It is a struggle and concerning to see so many male commenters so resistant to taking ownership or hell, respectful or even believing in the existence of this social issue. Women have been expected to prevent their own rape(and their ‘buddy’s if they are walking to a car at night) forever. Why is it too much to ask men to take some responsibility? Share the message of ‘dude not cool to try to hook up with her. she was super drunk’? Our culture used to be cool with pregnant women smoking.
Then we realized it wasn’t ok and we launched education campaigns and it became socially unacceptable to do so. Some outliers still smoke but it happens way less. Not because less ‘evil’ moms exist but because they know better. (I am leaving out predatory rapist scenarios for simplicity. That’s a whole other can of worms. ). for all the ‘regular kids’ out there:Someone To Watch Over Me Shirt. Emphatic consent is needed. Rape starts when any party decides ‘no’ and the other person disregards(or stops paying attention) and anytime a party stops being able to consent emphatically.
