First a bit of background. I'm a senior in high school and am in class everyday with a group of girls, who I consider friends who are very smart. There is only one problem, they are all feminists. I'm not talking reasonable compromising feminists, I am talking "rape culture" "everything is an attempt to subjugate women" feminists. Today, we were in a class called Theory of Knowledge discussing the knowledge issue of feminism, all of these girls are ripping all men a new one throughout this class, I remained silent until they agreed that "Men in society contribute to rape culture." At this point I calmly say that I do not believe that all men do and that while some men do, so do some women. They then flatout deny that that is even a possibility. Their justification to me was word for word "When do you think the list time one of us raped some one was?" I was speechless. I asked "When do you think the last time I raped someone was?" That shut them up a bit but they maintained that there was nothing wrong with their remarks... How do I deal with these people?
TL;DR- Feminist high school girls use "When do you think the last time we raped some one was?" as a defense that women do not contribute at all to their own theme of "Rape Culture." I then respond "When do you think the last time I raped someone was?" but they maintain that as a man, I still contribute... Feels bad man
Edit: Something worth mentioning, my male teacher, has been sitting listening to the discussion the entire time and looked just as uncomfortable as I felt at all the misandry these girls have been saying. Thing is, he never says anything. Ever. He just takes it...
