Yes because the worst thing in life to happen to a person is to be sued.

Drunk people can consent. Being drunk doesn't make you do things you don't want to do. It's not a magic potion for fuck sake

Drunk people can consent.

They can consent, but they can also not consent. And that's part of the problem.

Being drunk doesn’t make you do things you don’t want to do.

If you and a sexy person enter a room together, drunk, and that person puts a $1000 charge on your credit card, do we assume that the charge was consensual simply because you were too inebriated to coherently object?

Assuming the answer is "No", why would the standard be different for sex?

Based on that eye contact I think I might be Jake's next victim.

Why does this only apply to women though?

Have you ever heard of a man raped by a woman? I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but people don't talk about it.

In the UK it's legally impossible for a man to be raped by a women. to rape requires a penis. at least it was last i checked.

And SA in general against men is woefully underreported.

not to say the same isn't true for women too... before i'm downvoted to obilvion

That's wild! I set why you need a penis to own property or to vote or lead a company, but to rape??

And I don't care if people mistake my joke about the patriarchy for a patriarchal joke. I don't care about downvotes

but people don't talk about it.

Now why on earth would that be?

Google patriarchy and toxic masculinity for more information

You and your silly questions

The poster is funny, but apart of the outrage that is causes by some, I think that it could trigger a good discussion.

For instance about how toxic masculinity also hurts men. Under that men are considered weak if they cry and should consider themselves be 'lucky' when they are raped.

And how feminism can help against this as well.

Can I buy this poster? I want to hang it up so people can laugh at it when they visit.

It's so fucking stupid.
