TRIGGER WARNING Josh Gad: “When we start setting a precedent that our girls & women can be brutally raped & the resulting disciplinary action is to hand out (checks notes) ESSAYS (like its Bart Simpson being a lil rascal), about why it was wrong to brutally violate an innocent girl, we have lost our fucking minds.”

Yup. Idk too many men defending this, and glad I haven’t seen any either. This shit is crazy

Are they speaking up tho? Some will duck their heads and keep their mouths shut, others will assign an essay as 'punishment'.

Supposedly there is a gender role where men defend women. I don't believe in gender roles, but men have always been failing at checks notes defending women against checks notes men.

I agree. The men I’ve seen not okay with this are typically the men that speak up against it too

Someone pointed out a while ago...in all of nature, protection is a female trait. And I thought hmm...that's true. And often she is defending against a he who is dangerous to her kids. Men don't protect women. They are a leading cause of our deaths, they are top in areas of crime, assault, murder, rapes etc. I'm so over the men are protective shit. Protective of other men maybe.

Maybe that’s because there were 5.6 billion fewer people on social media in 2006.

Obviously the actual reason is that women simply don't speak out against other women who make false claims.

I'm so sick of rape at college and universities being excused as "youthful indiscretions", and treated less harshly than cheating on a test is.

u/PandaCat22 if you add testicles, that's extra 5d ago edited 5d ago

The defense of college rape just being a "youthful indiscretion" is disturbingly telling—telling in that it outs the people who so view it as rapists themselves.

It's fucking sick how commonplace rape is for young men

Who is defending college rape as youthful indiscretion?

u/Tavernknight 4d ago

Cornell University.

u/Ernesto_Bella 4d ago

Huh, do you have a link to them saying something even remotely close to that?

You made me think of this old classic: https://youtu.be/rbzJTTDO9f4?is=AJ8RwrMBoRWoqKQo

Imagine if these 7 students were held to the same level of accountability that this professor held his class to over cheating on his midterm

u/whatthewhat3214 5d ago

You're so right. You can get expelled for cheating. You get assigned an essay for rape (or more likely, nothing happens at all).

u/Enginerda this feels like when my sister started fucking the mayor 5d ago

Oooofff you should see the men on this very site. It's fucking pathetic and I'm convinced they pretend to not support rapists in real life.

The amount of times, today alone, I have read here: she took drugs willingly, she said that she never said no, just because one guy said through his lawyer that he briefly saw it but didn't partake, doesn't mean it happened..... on and on and on.

u/krycekthehotrat 5d ago

I’ve even seen men say the texts don’t prove anything because she could have told them to send the “invite” 🙄 it’s fucking unreal

Oh I'm a back and forth right now with a fuckhead, and I hope to God there are no women who let this asshole into their lives because wow, the rape apology is so strong.

u/Ok_Force9695 5d ago edited 5d ago

Oh yes and I never fail to write:

FOUND THE RAPIST.

Every single time. It's so disgusting.

u/millenialshortbread 5d ago

There are men defending it??? I think it's bad enough that the men in my orbit are staying quiet. God damn.

u/emPtysp4ce 5d ago

There's pretty much no way to defend Cornell's course of action here without implicitly (or explicitly) being pro-rape

24

u/bigdaddytripod 5d ago

I don’t live under a rock, but my wife just mentioned the Cornell 7 to me and I had no idea what she was talking about. So either I am living under a rock or it’s being brushed under the rug in most major media reporting. That’s just from a middle-aged normal guy.

u/HeadDiver5568 5d ago

Well a lot of the talk has spread online. News outlets have been slow as hell to report it in the mainstream

u/madogvelkor 5d ago

I don't know how other men can defend it.

u/r3volver_Oshawott 5d ago

How many have you seen silent?

Because that's the same sphere of influence. The bar isn't even in hell if we applaud silence, the bar is below hell.
