What do you think, Streeters? Paranoid or pragmatic?

When you approach me in public, you are Schrödinger’s Rapist. You may or may not be a man who would commit rape. I won’t know for sure unless you start sexually assaulting me. I can’t see inside your head, and I don’t know your intentions. If you expect me to trust you—to accept you at face value as a nice sort of guy—you are not only failing to respect my reasonable caution, you are being cavalier about my personal safety.

On the other hand, if you are both at church accompanied by your mothers, who are lifelong best friends, the woman is as close as it comes to safe.

Thanks for the handy tip!

You want to say Hi to the cute girl on the subway. How will she react? Fortunately, I can tell you with some certainty, because she’s already sending messages to you. Looking out the window, reading a book, working on a computer, arms folded across chest, body away from you = do not disturb. So, y’know, don’t disturb her.

So ends the human race, out not with a bang, but with a mass whimper from a billion wussy metrosexuals.

But the "1 in 6 women will be raped" statistic never says what they constitute as "rape"?

When is rape not rape?

The thing is, guys can walk down the street to the local 7/11 and not have to think much of it. You can be at home drinking and find you need more beer and simply take a stroll to the liquor store. Women can do this, too but - yeah fucking right if I am going to walk around at night, aimlessly drunk of course, to the beacon of light for drunk frat guys, white trash, and just the all around creeps.
Not that I walk around fearing every guy is sight is going to attack me, for fucks sake.
When the BF finally lets me out of my cage, and I mention I want a slurpee he tells me to go walk down and get one. To which I reply, "fuck you, I'm not walking alone!"

More from the Washington Shitty Paper

More Semantics

When I hear the term "Gray Rape", it brings a whole different image into my mind...

That look on her face is from her regret of not leaving the plastic covering on the couch.

Think about how JLP feels.  He probably lives in abject fear of his hand since it is attached to his body.

While the post seems overtly paranoid, I've been told by several rational, intelligent, well-socialized women that, yes, they are afraid of being on the streets alone at night and do worry when they encounter a strange man while they're out. Years ago, after being told that the first time, I began to make it a point to avoid appearing to follow women who were out under those circumstances. I'll cross the street or alter my route in some other way to avoid freaking them out. By the same token, I never let female friends walk alone at night after we've been out together. They insist it's unnecessary, but have yet to ever turn it down.

Properly chivalrous.

When I'm approaching a woman from behind, I generally make sure to make some noise as I'm doing it so that I don't catch them unawares.  Crossing the street is probably a better idea.

I would suggest this woman buy a vibrator and get a cat.  While it’s necessary in America for women to be aware of their environment and take precautions, this woman is totally fixated on the idea of men as rapists and has lost any ability to form a relationship with one.

Edit: I just remembered this woman is a dog lady in training, not a potential cat lady.

I completely disagree - this is the type of woman who will, in private, be asking you to please rape her (and make sure to be very rough) after her third glass of wine.

But, do they not see the ether-soaked cloth coming that way?

Post-Script:  And, on Goober's point, false claims of rape have all-ways seriously pissed me off.  And, yeah, de-spite the continued false-claims over the years, you still have people like the spasm-in-ducing-voiced Nancy Grace ready to take every word out of a faux-victim's mouth as fact.  Wo-Men who make false claims of rape do a serious diss-service to the real victims (In my rather boisterous op-inion).

Well, I finally settled in and read the thing, and while the paranoiac tone is off-putting, there are some good points in there:

Mr. E-mail has made it clear that he ignores what I say when he wants something from me. Now, I don’t know if he is an actual rapist, and I sincerely hope he’s not. But...a man who ignores a woman’s NO in a non-sexual setting is more likely to ignore NO in a sexual setting, as well.

So if you speak to a woman who is otherwise occupied, you’re sending a subtle message. It is that your desire to interact trumps her right to be left alone. If you pursue a conversation when she’s tried to cut it off, you send a message. It is that your desire to speak trumps her right to be left alone. And each of those messages indicates that you believe your desires are a legitimate reason to override her rights.

For women, who are watching you very closely to determine how much of a threat you are, this is an important piece of data.

Like it or not, fellas, this is excellent meeting/dating advice.

Yeah . . .  Could it not be that most wo-men simply can-not spot an ass-hole when they see one?  You can-not blame our en-tire gender for your short-sighted-ness.

I wonder how many attacks have ever been provoked by a woman's negative reaction to an attacker.

I smile at everyone and look them in the eye.

What I'm trying to say is, if a psycho's having a bad day, why make him feel worse?

Besides, woe betide the motherfucker who tries to attack me. He better have a gun.

I've been lucky, I guess.
