No, I am wondering why the people on this board act as rape apologists if they like the politics of the rapist.

:ff: I need your help, but first here's something I found while looking for authorative essays referring to the appearance of the euphemism "sexual conquest" in rape apologetics:

St Paul's school rape trial begins with account of sexual conquest game | US news | The Guardian



So on fb I have been responding to some Trump apologist who said "A lot of men like to brag about their sexual conquests ..."

Now, leaving aside the thorny issue of whether and how the metaphor of conquest disguises the reality of rape, my problem is this; google can give me nothing, absolutely squat, about the use of "sexual conquest" as a trope of rape apologetics, which surprises me.

So please, share my surprise. And if you can, link me some linx. Thx.

Everytime I hear shit like this I think "This is why we need better sex education!"
Like recently a guy on facebook claimed birth control guarantees you will get pregnant. Since it fails 3% of the time, if you have sex 40 times you will have at least one baby.

I finally talked in person to a Trump supporter, and he was exactly like this. He's pretty much just a li'l edgelord with a bunch of childish ideas that he's got himself heavily invested in, and he will shut you down if you try to explain anything to him. The guy I talked to made up a conspiracy theory on the spot denying the existence of launch codes (or maybe he was saying they exist but don't actually do anything), and then, for good measure, said it doesn't matter if the whole world blows up anyway. Edgy like a dodecahedron, that guy.

Just a dumb, sheltered white boy jerking off to his own hot takes. I'm going to go ahead and blame the schools.

So, he's not only completely ignorant of the subject he feels qualified to pontificate about, he has no interest in actually learning. Sounds like an MRA to me.

No interest in learning, in fact gets hostile in response to questions (although this specimen does not seem very hostile, just remains pathetic throughout) - responds to any introduction of actual facts by reshuffling those facts back into his cherished mistakes.

:professor: This (an unwillingness to cope with reality, and a syndrome of active distortion of reality) is perhaps the most serious unacknowledged disease of the modern world, and it afflicts young white men disproportionately. When is society going to wake up to this?

Young Scholar, Now Lawyer, Says Clarence Thomas Groped Her in 1999 | Law.com

As Campos points out at LGM, the facts that she told her story to several people at the time and that she has very little to gain and quite a lot of potential vilification to suffer by coming out with it now make her story fairly credible.

Men Look After Men: Sexism and Domestic Abuse In The Australian Comedy Community | SBS Comedy

From the linkSo this is a story about how the Australian comedy community treats women in my situation because that’s what I know about. I don’t know how it’d be if we’d both been lawyers or zookeepers or astronauts. But when I am asked the question, about why more women don’t go into comedy? Well, it’s for the same reason we don’t leave our abusive partners. Because men look after men and in the end, no one wants to hear your grievances.

The private dance video that went viral - BBC News

From the link An 18-year-old Egyptian woman, Ghadeer Ahmed, sent a video of herself dancing in a short dress to her then boyfriend in 2009. After they broke up, three years later, he posted it on YouTube. But when critics started to shame her on social media, by linking to the video, Ghadeer bravely reposted it her own Facebook page and told the world she was proud. This story is part of the BBC's Shame series, which examines a disturbing new phenomenon - the use of private or sexually explicit images to blackmail and shame young people, mainly girls and women, in some of the world's most conservatives societies.
