Gregory's ServerI really didn't expect this to take off.
I generally do not condone violence. However, there are exceptions. If someone is threatening rape with that statement and makes any move that indicates they might follow-through, people need to understand THEY SHOULD FIGHT BACK.
I was taught as a child to just endure. That's fucked up.
Fight back any way you can: leave the room, tell a reasonable authority figure, or... beat the living snot out of the scumbag.
Stop teaching girls to be submissive.
@realtegan We all need to get a lot more comfortable condoning violence when it's in defense of self or others.
Violence has no moral dimension of its own -- it is the relationship between the one doing the violence and the one targeted that creates the morality of the situation.
