Historic! Radical MRA and famous radical feminist finally fully agree--"Rape is not the worst thing that can happen to a woman."

Feminists repeatedly screaming at female victims that being raped is the worst thing that could possibly happen to anyone must be wonderful therapy.

Imagine some horrific thing that happened to you that in the immediate aftermath involved people telling you you'd be better of dead (if living through rape is the worse thing that could happen then death must be preferable), that your life is beyond repair, and that your identity now is that of a permanently tainted victim who can never be happy again.

I imagine that would not aid in the recovery process. Yet another example of feminists hurting women to advance their ideology.

People who say this 'fate worse than death!' shit are fucking children with no imagination.

Rape is the worse thing that can happen to you? Not having your children gutted in front of you, or your eyes scooped out with a mellon-baller, or having all four of your limbs amputed, or fire-anted, or hell, I'm sure I could go on, but you get the idea. It's a failure of imagination. There are way, way, way worse things that can happen to you.

Germaine Greer also criticised Australian PM Julia Gillard for her dress sense and "fat arse", just to give you an idea of her capacity for consistency.

Canada does have those sexual assault laws with varying degrees.

i have to respect greer for reconsidering a lot of her prior beliefs. for instance, she was in the TERF camp for a long time, but recently recanted her anti-trans stance.

"In fact Greer goes on to state that the "crime of rape" should be "abolished" and replaced with new "sexual assault Laws" with "varying degrees of gravity.""

Well I wouldn't go around giving accolades to Germaine Greer for that reasoning because she borrowed the idea from lawyers in Australia who were campaigning in the 1980's to have all the sex laws re written.

Germaine Greer often contradicts her previous stances on any issue, because she has no real moral compass of her own. She is a provocateur who makes her living out of saying things that others may regard controversial. The more controversial a subject is, the more likely Greer will attach her name to it in order to glean public attention.

Greer will publicly change her mind over a controversy whenever there is a possibility for profit by doing so.

why does rape have to be the worst thing? rape is a terrible thing, is that not enough for the person that was raped?

would you tell someone that was raped to suck it up because worse things happen?
