Online rapist register

    RAPE victims should name and shame their attackers online instead of reporting the crime to the police, Germaine Greer said yesterday. The academic and feminist, 71, has for years campaigned for the law on rape to be changed to increase the rate of convictions.

    Speaking at the Cheltenham Literature Festival, Professor Greer said: 'I wish there were an online rapists' register and that it was kept up to date, because we know the courts can't get it right.

    'When I say that to people, they get so scared, and say "Oh, you can't. What about privacy?" 'Years ago I knew we would never get convictions in a court of law for date rape, so I suggested women kept an online dossier, so if a woman had a date and he did something to her, or frightened her, and she asked him to stop and he didn't, then instead of going to the police she should put him online.

    What a terrible idea! I can only assume that Germaine Greer was trolling.

    How do i rape a person online. Explanation anyone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,883 ✭✭✭smokedeels


    Does she imply it would be a wiki-style system? Hmm, It would be a good prank, putting your friends name on an online Rapist-list, like tipping off that facebook-mob that Larry Murphy is living at your mates address.

    Ha, that's completely ridiculous.

    It's bad enough that an innocent man can be accussed of rape, have his name out in the public domain without also having a vindictive bitch posting it on the internet.

    Rapists are bastards btw.

    Exactly.

    But come on, she's 71 now. I know people 30 years younger or more that don't 'get' the internet, and either think it's full of lawless rogues looking for trouble, or it's policed and everything you read on it is true.

    Yes it's great in theory, but in practice it's lunacy.

    Hypothetical scenario

    Man A pisses person B off. Person B is a spiteful so and so, person B registers Man A as a rapists.
    Man A's name is blackened forever

    But for such militant feminists the thought of huge numbers of men losing their good name is of no consequence in comparison to the wrath of a scorned woman being satisfied

    It's a stupid, unmanageable and highly dangerous idea
    I'm going to abuse anyone who supports this

    That idea would undoubtedly lead to many more cases like this where a man would have his reputation destroyed in the court of public opinion and not have the chance to defend himself.
    With her flowing blonde hair and fondness for tight jodhpurs, keen horsewoman Kate Woodhead could have galloped straight from the pages of a Jilly Cooper blockbuster.

    Or so £200,000-a-year IT consultant Paul Joseph thought when he first set eyes on her as she showed him around a luxury rental property in Guildford.

    He didn’t take the property, but got to keep the girl.

    Today, as Mr Joseph, 39, surveys the wreckage of his life, he rues the day he ever set eyes on Woodhead, 31.

    Their volatile two-year *relationship cost him dearly. ‘I was like a lamb to the slaughter,’ he says, shaking his head in disbelief. ‘She tried to destroy me and very nearly succeeded.’

    For, in an act of revenge, Miss Woodhead, 31, stripped her ex-partner of everything he owned when his feelings towards her cooled.

    He lost his job, home, reputation, luxury cars, collection of paintings, his BMW motorbike, Rolex watches, tailored suits and other *possessions worth more than £100,000. At one point he had nothing but the clothes on his back and 6p in his pocket.

    So how did Woodhead achieve all this? By falsely accusing him of rape.

    Ah, but then you would need a website for false false accusers to make sure people knew the people being accused of being falsely accusers were......ah, forget it, just:

    Germaine Greer raped me.
    I feel so happy that I can finaly tell this to the internet. I was afraid to tell the Gardaí.

    Let the word go forth that Germaine Greer is a rapist.

    I have no proof of this, but she insinuates that proof is not needed. That's good enough, right?

    And my anal virginity.
    It's such a shame that the rape of men by women goes unreported.
    I say that we report the rape of men carried out by radical feminsts be reported on the internet. The Gardaí won't take any action, so we need to get the word out that Germain Greer raped me.

    Once again I have no proof of this. You'll just have to take my word for it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,204 ✭✭✭FoxT


    Greer lives in the wacky shack.

    Rape is a serious crime. It needs to be dealt with seriously.

    She indirectly raped lots of families of their mothers for many years, so I don't doubt it.

    Another thing that always bugged me about her, was her book The Boy, not that I found anything wrong with it per se, but ..

    If a man wrote the exact same book, and it had similar photos, only the title was The Girl, she would have been screaming for the guy's balls to removed.

    I can't abide the woman.

    Greer argued in her book, The Female Eunuch, that women do not realise how much men hate them, and how much they are taught to hate themselves.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germaine_Greer#The_Female_Eunuch
    In 1992 Greer wrote an article in The Guardian claiming that that "men hate women" but that "women cannot hate men".

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germaine_Greer#Other_media

    Anyone who listens to a word this woman says needs a good slap to be honest. Just goes to show that any idiot can earn a Ph.D. in something or other.
