ragebait repost from corporate social media: it's quite common there to censor random letters and words, or make some deliberate grammar mistakes, so people will comment about it and will boost the post organically.

It's not genuine. It's making fun of the fact that the post chose to censor one letter from the word "drugs" despite it being painfully obvious what that one letter was, and the fact that the far more offensive word "rape" went through uncensored twice.

It's so strange to me that the argument of she was drunk and / or on drugs so strange.

These are reasons that she could never consent. Therefore any sexual act with her would be assault

This holds true even if she's on drugs and naked.

captainlezbian 5 points 5 days ago

It really depends on the situation. Two people of similar intoxication levels can consent. But at the same time when with an intoxicated person you need to be making certain they're moving forward with you and consenting.

At least that's my perspective as someone who will get involved with strangers while drinking at bars.

When someone's blacked out or unable to enthusiastically consent (ie advance the acts of their own volition without being pressured or otherwise coerced) then they fundamentally can't consent

It's hard for two unconscious people to have sex. One of them has to be conscious enough to be able to move. Even if they are drunk they are still responsible for having sex with unconscious person.

It may depend on jurisdiction but usually it's illegal to have sex with someone unable to consent. I think that if they are drunk but are still consenting (verbally or non-verbally) it's not considered rape.

I've always been a total wierdo, but even at sixteen, when I was a desperate, frustrated incel, if a girl (in this case, a peer) had to get sloshed to be into me, it'd freak me out.

Pretty much through my entire romantic career, meeting at a bar instead of a café was a red flag. Sex always seemed like a sober activity. Or more exactly, sex supplies its own drugs. Morover, once someone was not coherent enough to do crosswords, it was clear they weren't clear headed enough to consent to fluid exchange.

Granted, there are two factors that inform this attitude: One is my parents were sloppy drunks and went to sloppy-drunk parties. And I never wanted to be like that. The other is I made my way into the kink community in my twenties, and mixing drugs or booze with kink was geberallt generally known to be dangerous like mixing drugs and booze with motor vehicles or guns. (At least in my corner of the kink community. Also breath-control was a no-no and kids seem to be choking each other all over the place, nowadays.)

But then, I've never been a frat dude, or even the kind of guy who'd ever be sponsored to join a Greek house.

Kinda same. Even in my most incel times my most fucked up fantasies there the other party was getting totally ravaged, the reason it was sexy was because they consented, because they wanted it, because they were feeling pleasure from it. It was sexy because I was able to empathize with the imaginary other.

I guess fantasy me doesn't really care about hammered sex, but real me would never be that hammered and would instantly be worried if the OP happened, can't get aroused if I'm worried. Crazy how some guys are.

Anarchy sounds nice until you have a task big enough to require people to work together, or to do shitty work no one wants to do, or to deal with outside aggressors, or to resolve conflict.

There's probably something in between anarchy, dictatorship, republic, communism that works, but we haven't found it yet.

This has been solved many many times. Kropotkin addresses this in Mutual Aid. You form confederations, and call regular meetings to form pacts and mutual trade.

Ironically anarchy doesn't mean no governance, it means no state and government. A good anarchist society would have plenty of agreed upon rules and expectations, they just wouldn't be enforced by a body of monopolistic violence.

Villages of quisi to fully anarchist peoples operated for centuries and millennia in this form of communal structure until the nation-state was born in the late medieval ages and spread abroad through European colonialism.

I get the sentiment but I'm willing to bet a vast majority of people genuinely think they would "just do the right thing in that situation." But people underestimate the temptation in the moment. They've never actually thought to try and put themselves in that situation, or what they might do, they just thought "of course im a good person" and left it at that.

And naturally the mere suggestion of "thinking it out" is met with ridicule. "How can you even consider it?! This should be a fast, easy answer!!". When not thinking about it at all is what contributed to it happening.

Anecdotal evidence: I'm a frat boy who has been in this situation multiple times. I can't even understand how that would be tempting to a non-rapist; the sex wouldn't even be good! My layman understanding is that it's about power, not horny.

This situation came up so often that we had a standard procedure of getting the girls rehydrated and in a cab.

IMHO the problem isn't that most men want to rape, it's that most men would cover for an alleged rapist friend. They value their gender team over basic decency.

You're also describing an extreme scenario. What about the scenario when you're both drunk and just too impaired to make good decisions? The other person isn't in the right mind to consent but you were both fooling around before you both got too fucked up. That's a scenario where bad decisions get made. From my understanding the facilitating of those scenarios is "rape culture". Not every case is going to be a simple as one person was sober and the other was passed out.

Actually proving the second part of my comment true so thanks for that. The idea that everyone will "just do the right thing" all the time is incredibly naive imo. Not meaning that as an insult either.

I dont even know what that's supposed to mean.

I'm saying people seem to think in their head they are a good person so they will just naturally do "the right thing" all the time. Then they get blindsided by their actual thoughts or feelings when they're actually in that situation.

Especially when it's someone they care about. Try to imagine the person you love the most committed some heinous crime. Would you immediately call the police and turn them in? Or would you hesitate due to personal feelings?

"Oh, but they would never do that." Yeah, and that's exactly my point. Just thinking something will "never happen" leaves you at the mercy of your feelings in the moment, which most people would be very surprised to learn about themselves is not always so honorable.

Oh i don't entertain this kind of thing.

Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play.

They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

But you may have been raised a rapist when the messaging is women are objects of desire with limited purpose in life, which includes satisfying men’s vanity, but also treating them like we’re all their moms the rest of the time…

Even then, you're not raised a rapist, you would have been raised someone who is more likely to become a rapist. You aren't that until you actually become it. I don't think we should be accusing anyone of anything before they've even done it. You should absolutely call out any shitty behavior that leads you to suspect they'll do harm to others wither it's rape, murder, or some other crime. By saying they already were a rapist or raised as a rapist you're taking away their free agency and kind ironically saying it wasn't their fault that's just how they were raised.

forbiddencherry 12 points 5 days ago

Thought provoking comment, thanks. If I'm interpreting what you're saying correctly, there are people who find rape attractive, where they get off on the idea of raping someone. But a person feeling that way should not be called a rapist, because that's a term that should be reserved for those who have actually committed the act of rape. Perhaps some psychological or medical term should be used for the rape-attracted instead?

That's interesting, and complicates my worldview slightly. To shift topic, I'd begun to separate the idea of a pedophile from a child rapist. Because if someone has attractions to children, it's not the same thing as that person being sexually involved with them. At first this seems to reinforce what I interpret you're saying. Where the same term "pedo" is inappropriately used for both those who have and haven't hurt children.

However, in the "pedo" case those who haven't hurt children had the name first, and then that name was extended by popular culture to also mean those who have hurt children. Whereas with rapist it's the reverse, where the common term is for the person who has committed the act, but there isn't a common term for one who hasn't.

And there's a third case. In some cases we've begun to separate actions and defining a person by them. For example, "alcoholic" vs "someone with alcohol use disorder", because someone can receive treatment and stop using alcohol. So, is there a potential third term for someone who stops raping? I think not, at least not anytime soon. There's no known effective treatment for having attractions. For example, conversion therapy to "cure" homosexuality was nothing less than torture and also a complete failure. Chemical castration doesn't remove attractions either, just sex drive. Modern therapy for various attractions involves helping the person accept the attraction not trying to remove the attraction. Therefore, if someone rapes once does that mean they should be forever defined as a rapist? In the present day, I'd say yes. Perhaps in the future we'll have advanced our knowledge of medicine and the mind to be able to change attractions, but right now that's simply not possible.

A lot of people seem to hate the idea that someone who is capable of coming up with or having some sort of affinity towards an activity and someone who has already committed that activity are separate. Mostly, they would point out that you need active pressure of society or laws to prevent the behavior.

Personally, I think active prevention, separating the concepts of impulse from activity, and working with people who are generally maladapted to society, but haven't committed any actual harm would be a good thing, but these kinds of concepts have a lot of pushback from people.

I mean, a few of you at least have ever had sex with someone who was not participating, just being passive, clearly "accepting but not willing". Am I the only one to find it a turn off?

To make love together requires a cooperation... of course not to "fuck someone" but this one is supposed in a domination, but if you need that some one be passed out to dominate them, what do you think of yourself?

If you want a sex toy, please buy it in some shop, it has never been that easy. If you want to make love, you need to seduce someone enough so they are genuinely willing to do it with you.

Some people find it sexy to behave as sex toys or to be treated as such. Some people like to be dominated and moved around. Not everyone wants to make love, some people just want to fuck, or even to be fucked. You may find this unjust, but I feel like, in your writing, you just think about how you feel yourself, and not about how others experience their sexuality as if they were somehow broken if it doesn't look like love and cooperation to you.

The partners are both willing, and they agree on how to do it? I am totally fine with them doing it in their way. And may one act as a slave and the other as a master, with their rules and their limit ; I see it as a form of cooperation.

If one of the partner is forced, or accept for secondary reasons (they don't really want sex, or not that way) ; here I see a problem.

It is just the same if they are more than 2 partners. As long as they are all willing it, for it, and as it is, I find it fine.

Also, sometimes, you may be willing to try something, and find out you do not like it (you at least have this experience with food). It is important, I think, to respect the others even when they change their mind. You would not either, I think, force someone to finish a full plate of something they don't like just because they have accepted to try to please you...

You're right and it's tragic. It's part of the punching down systems these guys benefit from when they climb in the hierarchies, the old boys' club. I'm a guy and have seen how guys can benefit in life, but shouldn't use it to hurt others. Same thing in many families, supernatural groups, sports, frats, military, and right-wing politics. People cant wait for their turn to punch down on someone and it's indoctrinated as normal and good. They all hide their abusive ways, where real truth stands in the open. Tribalism, right/wrong obedient to authority, it's easier than having real convictions, and just go along with what was brainwashed into them. And again these guys benefit from their privilege and get mad when that word is used, since their ego takes over and they have not ego awareness as we all need, but that's part of these unhealthy systems.

A very sad thing is that, unless we take care of it, we are all bound to value this "winning male" behaviour as not only normal but also as good! The ones aware don't need to make an effort to see how wrong it is... but take a young adult male who became a successfull influencer or businessman, how surprising would it be that he abused sexualy of someone? Isn't it in the pack with the success? Of course it should not be... but we would need that young men grow understanding that abusing others is gross and a lesser thing.

And so, breaking idols out of abusive behavior isn't just to piss off their fans. It is to make abuse incompatible with success. To turn "yes, of course, he is such a man!" into "he fucked up, he is such a looser!"... which would be a nice step taken against patriarchy, and hopefully not the last one!

"Enthusiastic sober consent" should be the bare minimum. If they're sober, but only kind of into it, that's a "no". If they're enthusiastic but drunk or high, it's a "no" until they sober up and confirm that they really want to.

I feel the rave/techno scene is like that (at least in Europe)…. And among all my friends that got raped/SA I didn’t heard yet a single one that got raped at a rave/techno party. Not saying it doesn’t happen but it feels much less than “socially respectable” parties, ex boyfriends, friends of friends, etc.

I wonder if it is because people that are attracted by that scene are in a certain way or the community has a strong culture of consent or something else.

Being inebriated around dozens to hundreds of strangers who themselves are consuming mind altering substances isn't exactly a safe situation. Take the fun of it being a party away from it and just zoom out with that context. Nobody has their full faculties.

I'm a dude and I wouldn't feel safe going to a party naked, drunk or not.

I'm also not prone to going to house parties, or getting drunk/doing drugs, so I might be an outlier here.

To be blunt, unless you're in a context where it's normalized, being naked in any situation is probably an unsafe activity, regardless of gender, or the environment. The obvious exceptions here being private or secured spaces, including bathrooms, changing rooms/locker rooms, and other public facilities like showers and such. Any medical situation. Also, any nudist areas... Probably more that I'm not thinking about.

Just because, as a man, I'm not as likely to be raped, doesn't mean it can't happen, or even that it's unlikely to happen. I have no doubt that every community including the LGBTQIA+ communities, have some rapists in their ranks. Not many, surely, but not zero either. So there's a nontrivial chance of me, as a guy, going to a house party drunk, doing drugs, then getting raped, either by a man, or a woman.

This is a human problem.

At the same time, I recognize that women are raped in far higher numbers than men, or at least that's what the statistics show, so there's extra risk there based on the statistics alone. That doesn't make it safe for a dude to go and do the same thing.

The point continues to be missed: why is it unsafe?

No one disputes that that situation is unsafe. People are saying that it's unsafe because of rapists. Pointing out that you shouldn't do unsafe things is asinine when the point being made is that people shouldn't act in a fashion that makes them a danger to others.

Ignoring that the hazard is due to the choices of live humans with agency and entirely placing the agency on the victim is the crux of the problem.

Flip it around: you shouldn't be inebriated in a situation where there are hundreds of people you can hurt.

The victim has no control over where the hazard goes. The rapist chooses where it's dangerous for the victim to be. Big party? Dangerous if there's a rapist there. Intimate gathering of friends? Dangerous if one of them is a rapist.

Rapists are not lightning. They don't randomly strike in hazardous situations beyond anyone's control where the best advice is "don't stand under a big tree or you might get raped by lightning".
They're humans committing a crime against another person.

Because showing up drunk and naked, then doing drugs, is generally risky behavior?

The graveyards are full of people who were not at fault, and/or in the right with their actions.

As you say, the driver is (or at least should be) at fault. But wear a helmet anyways. That metaphor has legs. It applies to all kinds of things, from personal protection equipment, to situational hazards, to environmental hazards...

Like the guy climbing up on the umpteenth floor of a high-rise during its construction where that floor doesn't have outside walls, or guard rails or anything... He's not planning on falling, but he should wear fall arrest gear anyways.

I don't plan on getting hit by a car when I direct traffic to a parking area, but I still wear a high vis vest and stand out of the path where cars are going to drive....

It's not about blaming the victim at all. Victims are victims. But before you become a victim, you can take steps to avoid becoming one. Once you are a victim, anyone pointing out what you could have done to avoid becoming a victim, is an asshole.

I don't hate the idea, but that infringes on the basic civil rights in most countries.

I don't think this should be exclusive to Men. Women should be killing rapists in self defense, and that should be ok.

My main issue is whether the person doing the killing is correct in their assumption of guilt regarding the perpetrator (or accused).

But this is why we don't have this kind of martial law. Everyone is entitled to be judged by a jury of their "peers". Even low life scum like murderers and rapists.

To be honest, I consider rape to be more severe than murder, because now that person has to live the rest of their life, permanently changed from the experience. To me, that makes it a form of torture. Dead people don't have to live with their trauma.

Not to diminish how severe of a crime murder is, at all. It's easily a close second, but IMO, rape is top of my list in terms of how heinous it is.

Humans are hairless apes. You can acknowledge that the rapist at a frat party made a mistake, while also acknowledging that the naked woman made a bad mistake of entering the hairless ape enclosure in that state.

It would be wonderful if we lived in a world where every hairless ape had perfect self-control, was raised with absolutely enlightened beliefs, and never let alcohol or drugs impair their judgment. It makes perfect sense to punish any hairless ape that breaks a law.

OTOH, if you're the parents of a young woman, you should teach her to be very careful when choosing to enter the hairless ape enclosure because humanity hasn't yet reached a stage where that's always safe.

Perhaps if you define better what it means to be careful? Most people's definition of being careful against rapists (avoiding after dark, avoiding creepy looking guys) is just completely wrong and gives false sense of safety and superiority to survivors.

Sometimes it feels to me like rapists are culturally "cartoonized". It happens a lot here in Mexico with the "narco" figure. That's shared with Americans. They put always these Mexican macho cowboy moustached men as the typical druglord, but they are usually just regular guys in their looks. I'm saying a similar thing is socially ingrained with rapists, like these malicious looking weirdos, when they are, in reality, fathers, brothers, excelent students and "exemplary" coworkers, as well as incels, machos and weirdos.

**Moderator Guidelines**

Moderator Guidelines

  • Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
  • Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
  • When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
  • Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
  • Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
  • Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
  • Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
  • Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
  • Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
  • Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
  • Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
  • Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
  • First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
  • Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
  • No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
  • Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
  • Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
