I am not a prissy woman, and I don't hold myself to any higher standard than anyone else. And there is a possible chance that I might have, in the past, caressed a guy's bum if I felt it might lead to - something more interesting. Never, however, his scrotum.
But I think - I am not sure, but I think- that very many women have had nasty, brutish and at the least semi-sexual assaults on them at some point in their lives. I certainly know quite a few women who would admit this. And I say 'admit' because despite what you guys think, it is still very likely that a woman would think it was her fault if she was raped or abused. And she would certainly be unlikely to talk about, or report it.
I do feel sorry - I really do - for men who have been shot down in flames by some pretty airhead. But, honestly - how the fresia does that compare when women are pretty routinely subjected to all kinds of verbal and sexual crap - by men - simply because they are women? Poor men, going into a bar with a chance that a girl is going to be nasty to him. But not it seems, poor women, going into a bar with the chance some guy might verbally insult her in a truly horrible way, or even stalk and rape her on the way out?
But I won't get going on this. Why? Because the majority of men on this site simply wouldn't believe it, or want to truly confront it if they did (ok changed my mind on that. ....but I think it makes a lot of men very uncomfortable) Oh, and for the record, I don't believe that all men are rapists etc. Many are great and have some understanding of what it's like. Others - maybe just wilfully blind, deaf and utterly not understanding what misogyny can really lead to. Look at female students in Afghanistan and see what I mean....
