College Men: Stop Getting Drunk

Tastysalad101 · 2013-10-20T11:38:14+00:00

I stopped reading at "A 2009 study of campus sexual assault found that by the time they are seniors, many college men will become rapists."

we are failing to let men know that when they drink their decision-making skills into oblivion, they can do terrible things.

That's because it's not true.

It's a lie.

Serious studies on the subject - and by that I mean studies conducted by genuine researchers in behavioral science with relevant qualifications who have no bias and are not seeking a particular outcome - show that overwhelmingly, rapists are sociopathic predators who rape many times and display narcissistic behaviours centering on lack of empathy and moral structure.

They are absolutely NOT average people who drink too much and "end up raping". That implication is not just offensive, it's extremely dangerous and should be filed alongside, "black men smoke reefer and rape white girls".

For a serious look at this subject, I recommmend David Lisak's work.

When men get drunk, they are responsible for their actions.

When women get drunk, they are no longer responsible for their actions.

Well then the answer is obvious. We need to make it illegal for women to drink. If they can't handle the responsibility, then they can't have the right.

Years at college/ university: 4

Number of times ive been drunk: too many to count

Number of rapes ive committed: 0

This article is some kind of BS, fuck them. Ive never heard of a rape case at any uni ive gone to. Its ridiculous and i love how its all men too. Ive seen women at uni do some pretty terrible things when they've had a drink. I once saw a girl get so drunk she vomited four times while going home. Or the time a girl willingly took of her shirt and bra in a bar. Or the time i was getting a drink in a club and a girl patted my crotch.

Im not saying the men are clean, ive seen them do some pretty stupid stuff too, but this article is ridiculous on its face.

I'm a man, I got drunk in uni, yet I never raped anyone. I guess I'm not really a man? (Feminism really has this subtext of shaming less thuggish men).

The article is a response to

http://www.slate.com/articles/double_x/doublex/2013/10/sexual_assault_and_drinking_teach_women_the_connection.html

Of course the article is total nonsense. Men don't call it rape when they get a bit drunk sleep with a fat girl then wake up in the morning and regret it.

Women it seems can sometimes call that regret rape. If you don't like what may happen then don't get drunk. How's a man supposed to know how drunk a woman is and that yes doesn't really mean yes. You see the thing is as a heterosexual it doesn't matter how drunk i get i will never have sex with a man. So we still have some control over our actions.

Sounds like an argument for reinstating the 18th amendment to me.

How about this instead: I won't drink where women are present, except those that are serving. I won't pay for alcohol for women nor give it to them. In return, leave me alone and let me drink in peace.

BrambleEdge · 2013-10-20T15:48:20+00:00

And so the feminist narrative of female victim - male perpetrator continues.

Women who have drunk sex are raped, men who have drunk sex are rapists. The absurdity of it would be funny, if it didn't ruin lives.

nativeofspace · 2013-10-20T19:34:22+00:00

You just have to be a good looking guy, they never decide consensual sex was actually rape if they don't regret it the next day.

Thank god that the comments were reasonable...

"Frequently, both the man and the woman have been drinking. The men tend to use the drinking to justify their behavior"

Whereas the women tend to use the drinking to abdicate responsibility for their behavior?
