Louise O Neill on rape culture.

Ralf and Florian

She presented a documentary on rape culture during the week on RTE which focused on the issue of sexual assault against females. It's interesting to note her response to a (male) follower would tweeted that it would be hilarious to see a remake of Deliverance featuring "pissed up dickheads on a drunken stag". For anyone who's not seen the movie Deliverance its about three city dwellers who go for a weekend fishing to what could be described as a backwoods community. Central to the storyline is when they are held captive and one of them raped by a bunch of rednecks.

What a good post!!

I've been saying that for years:

Women want equality in the workplace - but want to be able to take five years off, come back at the same level and earning the same as if they hadn't left.

Women want gender equality but will accept unfair quotas to get them into politics, business etc

Women want sexual equality but want to be able to be treated differently when drunk "men should be gentlemen".

I feel for blokes sometimes - my "sistahs" (ugh!) are bat crap crazy at times!!!

Ah but you see you wouldn't.
The vast majority of women are awesome. Like 99.7%.

There are only a tiny tiny few bitter people who buy into this ****, and they generally don't appear in real world society where men would be. Consider the "go your own way" boys who buy into the "game" horseshite. They are socially awkward recluses who you don't really bump into.

It's just concerning when they get a platform, and the fear being that sadly they might just spread their vitriol and bile to others.

Would it not be usual for men to verbally clarify that the woman wants to have sex?
I remember my boyfriend stopping to check, when (before) I lost virginity to him. I remember being slightly surprised because I thought it was fairly obvious, but looking back I wonder if that was unusual. It was about ten years ago so before the consent classes etc took off in the media.

Well you can answer your own question (perhaps) - is it usual for women to have verbal clarification sought? Is it usual for women to seek verbal clarification??

I wouldn't have thought so in either circumstance.

As an adult, I'd have a preference for things to happen organically. I can't imagine I'm in the minority.

The subject addles my brain. If I was a man I probably wouldn't be happy with verbal consent. And I wouldn't have drunk sex just in case. Not since reading this thread. And that does make it impossible for things to happen organically.

The whole wretched business is starting to remind me of "The Naked Sun", from Isaac Asimov's "Robot" series of novels. :pac:

Accidentally on purpose pregnancies aren't a new thing. They don't sound that bright though.

''The final Whisper confession comes from a mother who already has a six-month-old baby daughter.
She admits that her and her fiance are 'lucky' to be able to afford to buy things for her but she is secretly hoping she falls pregnant again.''

So, you already have ''stuff'' from the first baby!

Reproductive coercion and sabotage are not new, but it is part of rape culture and domestic violence . Would you shrug off a man removing a condom without consent before penetrating as him just not being too bright?

It's definitely immoral! I didn't mean to sound dismissive there at all. The Daily Mail just made it sound like a new trend or something.

Poor guy. Thinking he's being safe and getting caught for a lifetime he clearly doesn't want if he's slipping a Johnny on.

I'm surprised the lads on 4chan haven't doxxed these devious feckers yet. Would love to see their Facebook's exposed to the world.

Whispers would make a hackers wet dream!

This new wave of feminism is a lot of ****e. Personally if you respect everyone and treat them well we wouldn't have this problem . I'm sure a lot of feminists would judge me for being male It's new age liberal bigotry if you ask me. Sexism of the highest order. If there are two f#cking things I am tired of hearing about at this stage is celebrities IE Kardashian's and feminists ... The media are completely pointless at this stag

Great quote from Tomi Lahren the other day i think it was who said that as a woman she was voting for Trump because she believed in his politics and the politics of the Republican party and as a woman she wouldn't be made feel ashamed for voting with her brain and not with her vagina.

Would love to see the likes of Louise O'Neill & Tomi Lahren on the same discussion panel.

She'd (literally) take lumps out of the liberal bedwetting snowflake looney Lou.

I'd say more than one or two of those confessions are guys with an axe to grind. There are a lot of them around.

Shocking stuff though.

I'm a woman, can't say I hate either gender in their entirety because of their gender. That takes some doing.

For the record -
1) hating feminists =/= hating women
2) disagreeing with feminists =/= hating women
3) disagreeing with you =/= hating women

...just putting that out there.

I've no ax to grind and I've experienced something similar. Was in a relationship, she was up front enough that she wanted to have a child quick sharpish.. i wasn't rushing into anything. What I didn't know was that she was sleeping with multiple men in an attempt to get pregnant. :eek:

I know someone it happened to. They had a fyb and she intentionally got pregnant. He told her he didn't want it. She kept it and thought he would come around. He was involved with the child but had no interested in a relationship with her. She admitted it two years later, she was finding it though being a single parent. Her family hated him and had no idea how the whole thing had gone down.

Was she reported for being the rapist she is?
