You can do everything “right” and be assaulted. There’s NO behavior, NO clothes, NO location and NO level of inebriation that causes rape. RAPISTS CAUSE RAPE. Full stop. This victim blaming crap only makes excuses for rapists. Just no.

I keep seeing that meme that says many things, including "Men know when they are raping someone" and it is sticking in my head.

I am white. I benefit greatly from that. I am male. I benefit greatly from that. I am a white male. I benefit even more greatly from that. It's not hard to admit that. It shouldn't be hard to do something about that either. All white men should be doing something about this. Let the egos go!

I just joined Medium and I hope by sharing this, others can benefit freely from it without paying for a subscription. But I don't know if that's how it works. Please try it and let me know if you can.

AprilG Xn+2 = Xn+1 + Xn @fibonaccigirlExactly. And if that bothers you, that should motivate you to spend time tearing down the structures that create and perpetrate it, rather than spending time denying women's lived experience and yelling not all men.03:46 PM - May 12, 2024

And so all of them benefit from the fear of violence from any of them and then some of them keep hunting us while the rest say they’re good guys and do fuck all about it.

Jinxy's staff @MinxyJinxyAll men benefit from the patriarchal society. That isn't to say all men want that benefit, or all men want there to be a patriarchy. Just that all men benefit from it.03:06 PM - May 12, 2024

All men benefit from rape culture Remo, even you. If you're having a hard time accepting that, maybe spend some time re-reading the post and listening to women.

Emrazz asks this question every year & every year women say pretty much same thing - which is simply to feel safe - & every year men come bash women, yell about how it's NOT ALL MEN, & then threaten women. This is why we choose the bear. #TeamBear

Nothing says "I really didn't care about an actual answer" after asking a question quite like the digital equivalent of putting your fingers in your ears.

He produced a number of films directed by women. Very few women were in the business until the 1960s and 1970s. Pam Grier was discovered by one of Corman's 'exploitation cinema' directors, Jack Hill.

I think Not All-ing is done when folks feel implicated by association with people they somehow identify with. I belong to certain groups for which I've Not All'd in my head- for ex., Americans. But I don't Not All "out loud" bc the moment is about those whose injury needs to be understood, not me.

And I should have taken a screenshot of his spout claiming that rape culture didn't benefit him because he's blocked me now.

And that's it right there. All men benefit from rape culture and therefore aren't too willing to step up and do anything to actually change it.

Ground Control @MrTCB15Someone has to step up. In this case, a LOT of someones, as it's the only way this societal cancer will be broken.10:41 AM - May 12, 2024
But, as is often said of systemic racism, I fear a good many other men benefit too much from rape culture to do the stepping up.

This is the truth. It's ok, just don't inconvenience anyone, anywhere, ever.

Everyone is talking about Clarence Thomas’ blatant corruption. Let’s not forget we *still* don’t know who paid off Brett Kavanaugh’s $92,000 country club fees, $200,000 credit card debt, and $1.2 million mortgage.

This is the first man to address what they're going to do. Thank you.
I hope more men will jump in to this thread and let us know what they plan to do to help address rape culture.

To answer the question, I will continue to promote the book Aftershock, one of Andrew Vachss' final novels that used a hardboiled narrative to take on rape culture and the secondary PTSD it fosters.

Yes, it's crazy & also a very real possibility if everyone doesn't get out there & vote.
Women's bodies & lives are on the line here & our rights are slowly being taken from us.
Vote blue up & down ballot in EVERY election.
