According to birtian women can't make choices for themselves

Judging from the reports of more reliable sources than Brietbart, it seems like the guidelines are intended to get police to question whether the person was inebriated or if the supposed offender knew of any mental vulnerability, and that the many inferences that Brietbart are making about the handling of cases beyond questioning methods and attitude are unfounded, especially given that if you check the CPS website, the CPS Policy for Prosecuting Cases of Rape hasn't changed since 2012. The new action plan doesn't seem to be changing the burden of proof at all, it seems to be mostly aimed at assuaging the fears of people who think their behaviour will affect whether the police will listen to what they have to say ('An effective strategy in the investigation and prosecution of many cases requires a focus on the actions of the offender, rather than those of the victim') (that's a link to the new document in question, the 'Joint CPS and Police Action Plan on Rape,' if you want to check it out.)

There's plenty to complain about in the UK approach to sex crimes (the gendered nature of that approach being the most prominent,) but I think this is a non-issue personally.

Women don't really believe in their own agency. Otherwise, they'd consistently act in a way that affirmed it.

They would take responsibility for their own safety to a bare minimum of reason, instead of ascribing any criticism or advice as victim-blaming. They would not place sole responsibility of ascertaining their consent to be on their partner either. They would not consider themselves raped instead of the rapists when one of two inebriated partners. They would, as a cause, support equally strict punishment of women for same crimes instead of fabricating nonsense like the pay gap and demanding that industry fix it for them. They would adapt to or create institutions instead of demanding inclusion having done nothing to earn it.

Women just want to look like they have agency. Because its cool to have it and embarrassing to not.

Gotta love how the usual TRP brigade resorts to reflexive circlejerking without so much as checking the source of that "news" article.

All this time, the TRP has been unfairly receiving the credit for saying "women are children".

That honour belongs to England.

[I acknowledge this was a misunderstanding, but eh, I'mma stick to my statement]

All of this would be solved if the world went back to how it was always supposed to be--if "consent" was merely an arrangement from a lovely lady's father to you, promising him 24 goats in exchange for his daughter's maidenhood. O how I miss the times of yesteryear! Five hundred years too late I was born...tips trilby
