Slut-Walk hypocrisy as women protest for sexual safety

Makes perfect sense to me. Women should be allowed to walk around nude if they so wished without the fear of someone sticking something in one of their orifices.

Arguing that men cannot exercise self-control and act properly in the presence of a sexually attractive female is insulting to all men. We are not barbarians.

Just before the summer, when most people are about to go away on holidays I receive a flier through the door from the local police. The flier gives a series of precautions I can take in order to reduce the chance I will be the victim of a burglary when I'm on holiday. It covers things like stopping my mail & papers, double checking the house is all locked up etc.

Where is the outrage that burglary victims are being blamed for being burglarized?

There is none. This is because the crime of burglary doesn't invoke such strong emotions as the crime of rape. So people accept good anti burglary advice knowing people who get burglarized when they don't secure their homes don't deserve it, but at the same time could have done a better job of ensuring that they didn't become victims.

This slut walk does nothing to stop rape, whereas the advice of the police officer who made the comments if headed could actually in some circumstances prevent someone from being raped. So despite people's emotional reactions, the police officer was doing a good thing, while the slut march is dumb. Given the pictures it looks a lot like a chance for some girls to attention whore.

The type of people who commit rape don't care that women think they should be free to act as they please and not get raped. When this mentality puts some scantily glad girl in the path of such a person, they don't think, "Wait! No! I won't rape this girl, because women should be free to dress how they please". They just rape her.

I have learned something from this thread. I've learned that some people are idiots. Just looking at some of the commenters here it's become pretty clear that some people actually think that there is a significant portion of the population that thinks rape is OK. That's not just ignorant and misinformed. That's not just illogical thinking. That's crazy, actually crazy. Feminism isn't just a religion and an ideology, it's a fucking mental illness. Why don't we have shrinks for this kind of thing?

This whole thing seems perfectly reasonable for me.

As a man, I can walk anywhere I want at any time of day without fear of molestation or abuse.

I mean, why shouldn't I walk around downtime Braamfontein, South Africa at 23:00 with a shiny watch? What's wrong with wombling about Peckham at 02:30, drunk and carrying a big-assed camera?

What could possibly go wrong "

Geez, what are these mad women going to ask for next?

I can't believe some of you guys are justifying this rubbish.

If a woman dresses in a provocative way, then the intention is to provoke. She is therefore not a complete victim. Its called contributory negligence.
