Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with these people? Also...how exactly does she know whether the police give a fuck about sexual crimes or not if she doesn't go to them 'til long after the crime has been committed, and on only one occasion? What the fuck is the police supposed to do? Organize territory-wide patrols, in which cops carrying rape kits at the ready ask everyone if they've been raped?
Fucking magnets, how do they work?! :doh:
This is one of those situations where there's nothing you can say that won't be misconstrued as victim blaming. It's almost like that phrase was designed specifically to shield people who swallow ideological party lines whole and act like children. By, I don't know, repeatedly refusing to go to police to get a rape kid done, because "the police don't care and rapists are never prosecuted." After the 4th time of not reporting and not catching the guy, one would think a "teachable moment" would occur and she'd call the cops.
Oh sorry, that was my male privilege talking. But I just checked it with the coat check lady, I mean the coat check person, so let me give a proper response:
It is so horrible this lady was raped. Everything she did was totally correct, because I as a man have no right to mansplain anything. If she had gone to the police, they are so misogynist that she probably would have been raped several times in the police station while reporting her rape. Then they would have ignored her and laughed in her face. She is much better off concealing the crime, allowing serial rapists to rape again, and working with her therapist to deal with her emotions every time she is raped. She should definitely contact PZ, he is a shining paragon in the mire of Raep Kulture. She cannot speak to trained law enforcement men and women because they are too misogynist, but this old, white male professor always knows exactly what to do to protect victims from rapists. He knows because he cares. He cares a lot. He would never make a rape joke or allow a rape joke to be made about him, because he knows it would trigger real rape victims.
:lol: Seriously, sometimes there's nothing to do but laugh at the absurdity of it all. I'd love to hear what some of the responses were to her post.
