Are you offended by Geraldo Rivera's victim blaming remarks?

Strawmen, strawmen everywhere.

No, I am not offended by such remarks, even though I wear hoodies all the time.

I think I know why though. Men are so accustomed to hearing that everything is their fault, they actually start believe it a little bit. But then when they take some of the advice they are always getting and start to apply it to women, they are monsters.

Yes, I absolutely am. I am also offended by people who victim-blame women for being drunk, going to a bar/party, dressing provocatively, etc. I am also offended by people who say men/boys can't be raped, that boys who are raped by older women are "lucky," etc.

No I'm not offended because it's not victim blaming. Just like it's not victim blaming to tell a woman to be aware of her surroundings and to be accountable for her own safety, be mindful of her alcohol consumption...you know things she's in control of.

A link to said remarks would be useful.

This is not an issue of Men's Rights.

It is a straw man argument to claim that MRAs believe women "asked for sex" simply because of the way they dress. A person saying "no" is still a person saying "no".
