Hey Magnus you lying streicherite cunt. Don’t pretend to give a fuck about ending rape culture.
I don’t know why people are talking about fascism as if it’s a discrete thing that things are either in or out of, or something that has to tick off a list of fixed criteria. Not interested in making...
This really is the issue, whether someone's personal and subjective inner sense of 'self' should trump material reality. If transgender activists would even acknowledge there's a rights conflict and entertain that idea that 'trans women' may be something other than women (how often do we hear...
Terminological inexactitude.:p
Rape culture isn't worse in India - rape culture is equally horrible and equally embedded wherever it happens (which is everywhere) - it is, however more prevalent using comparable measures.
Isn't the discussion about anti radicalisation? If so then my point was made in that context rather than going back to the Crusades or something. I gather from your post that the Islamist threat, despite the bombings in India, Iraq, the mass executions , slavery and rape in Syria ,the terror...
My point is that within a British context , which is the context in which "Prevent" is designed to operate the British state and establishment, the promoters of "Prevent", are far more effective at this "Radicalisation" stuff: normalising and justifying warfare, recruiting fighters, arming...
Meet a 21st-Century Slave
furthermore there has been ample coverage of the issue of rape in India.
E2A there is a thread on here and if you do a search you will find it is not the only one
The issue or ones that are related to it hasn't just 'gone away' as evidenced by the article I linked to...
Just to clarify, I personally don't think this (let's call it the much higher prevalence of rape culture in some places than in others) is about Islam, it's about attitudes to women.
Is why I've kept using India as my example of a place where a woman walking alone at night is far less safe than...
yes. i can read, you know. i have said it had nothing to do with islam.
trans: blah blah blah
could you elaborate on what you mean by "the cases"? the cases of what? do you mean 'all rape cases'? do you mean cases of familial abuse and rape, like fred and rose west? do you mean cases of abuse...
In India the local tribal elders might sentence her to be gang raped, or burned to death as punishment . Bad as the deep south is the county sherrifs department still manage to draw line somewhere well short of that .
And it's not just India. Years back I saw a video, that I stopped before the...
Different things work for different people. There are also some fundamental principles which many people hold an absolutist position on, examples I can think of off the top of my head are rape and slavery. How about a rape free Wednesday as a compromise to appease those "extremists" that believe...
I find the word rapey disgusting tbf. But. To deny that a woman walking alone at night say in some "cultures' / places is in far higher danger than I am is absurd at best.
It's also incredibly cowardly.
May I suggest you watch a documentary called 'India's Daughter' which was banned in India ...
Oh good lord. Do you think that degrees in this subject done at Sussex & Goldsmiths don't spend at least 4 years deconstructing your very pencil case?
And I'm not British, I'm just a londoner.
But still, call me a racist but... rape culture is worse in india than in the UK. ok?
Did anyone else catch this?
Fascinating and deeply disturbing film, particularly given the interviews with one of the participants who apparently views rape as par-for-the-course (although he claims that he was only the driver throughout of the bus in which the assault/rape took place, rather...
I think it's a really complex one. I certainly know that S.Asia is difficult for single women in general, if not elsewhere as well, but the same female Muslim pals have made a fairly, not surprised familiar with their thinking rolled eyes, response.
It's not necessarily about the religion or...
Yep you're right, I was just doing a 'first world problems' type jibe on Bernie, and those sorts of arguments are always rubbish. But do feel that india's tradition of 'eve teasing' - and the fact that women in so many parts of the world would never even think of walking home alone in a pair of...
