Crosspost "Saying ‘Teach boys not to rape’ is just as bad as ‘Teach blacks not to steal’, or ‘Teach muslims not to bomb’." from /r/unpopularopinion:

I don’t understand why people think it is appropriate to aim anti-rape media and slogans at boys or men. Especially at university campuses and colleges where it is very common to separate the boys and the girls at the start of the year for workshops against sexual assault, imagine if they separated the whites and the blacks and taught the whites how to avoid being robbed and taught the blacks the definition of theft. Or if they gave all the non muslims a ‘bomb whistle’ to blow when they think they are about to be bombed. None of this is considered ok but still we see rape as a women’s issue, rape is a societal issue regardless of who the direct victims are. NOBODY wants rape, and yet we treat men like they are rapists by default unless taught otherwise.
