| 1 | Study that strongly supports the concept that rape culture leads to more rape.The briefest way I can state it is that this study design is one of the most careful I've seen and seems to be careful about being gender neutral. "Data collection. We reviewed all daily and weekly U.S. newspapers listed in Lexis-Nexis -- most of them local -- and coded every article mentioning the keywords 'rape' or 'sexual assault.'" This introduces a significant gender bias in that when a rapist penetrates her vagina with the victim's penis without his consent is is often not recognized as ra… | /r/MensRights | 16/09/18 06:42 AM |

| 1 | Study that strongly supports the concept that rape culture leads to more rape."Areas with more X have more news reporting of X" seems like a more rational interpretation of the correlation than "Areas with more news reporting of X have more X". It's also relatively clear that the researchers adherence to Feminist rape culture means that their discussion of "rape" effaces the majority of rape victims. You can't ignore half the problem and pretend to have a whole solution. This interaction produces four possible outcomes: (1) the perpetrator does not commit rape, (2) the pe… | /r/MensRights | 13/09/18 04:05 AM |

It's a nonproductive thought processes obsessing over preventing something in the past (which is impossible) or planning for it happening again (which is improbable). The recommended approach to victim blaming, btw, is to emphasize that the traumatic event is unlikely to be a recurring thing.

| 1 | Woman killed tropical fish with bleach after breakupI'm pretty sure even the larger pet fish are still caught with nets.

| 1 | Friend accused of statutory rape several years laterA commonly appearing term in caselaw regarding "a drunk person who cannot consent" is the phrase "wholly insensible", that is, unconscious or nearly so.

It's unclear about the timing of their birthdays and the start/end of the relationship, but even if they started dating shortly before her 15th birthday and stopped shortly after his 18th birthday, it would not be implausible that they did not bang during those time periods.
