When Democrats get back power Title IX has to change. Why are rapes in college not investigated as crimes? Just the fact that they aren’t gives men the illusion of privilege. 013

Reposted by Aliciacaptainfrogbert.bsky.social @captainfrogbert.bsky.social · 11hIf a man is drunk and I steal his keys, can I rob his house legally? Many will likely say this is absurd. Then why the carve-out for women and the carve-out for rape? Because too many men still view rape as "getting lucky." Too many men consider women to be non-human property, to be used at will. 1114
Reposted by Aliciacaptainfrogbert.bsky.social @captainfrogbert.bsky.social · 11hThey are saying that being drunk, an act that men do all the time, is de jure consent to be raped. That being unable to consent is consent. Does that mean if you steal a man's wallet while he's drunk you can keep the money? That any crime you choose to commit against a drunken man is legal? 172
