Anon asks out a girl
(sh.itjust.works)
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
Do you think it's purely just sexism, or do you think it maybe has something to do with the strategy women must employ to protect themselves from being assaulted by strangers?
Is the implication, then, that people with money are never dangerous individuals?
No, not never, but a monetary barrier probably does filter out some bad actors. Not all of course, and it probably filters out some good actors too unfortunately. But with the amount of assaults women are faced with, I understand why they feel the need to be somewhat choosy.
the reason they are choosey is they like rich men and want money.
Where do you people find these "happy in rape" women?
they aren't happy being raped. they see a guy being rich and hot as a mitigating his crime against them though. it's less 'rapey' to be raped by a rich hot guy. the scary rape is the one from the homeless drug addict. the former is an unfortunate circumstance, the latter is a heinous crime.
What a world we live in. Can't wait for some GMO or AI thing to outcompete humans (=
how does expecting a guy to buy you a $200 dinner prevent him from assaulting you?
or are you saying if a guy can only buy you a $20 drink, or doesn't buy you a drink, he's dangerous and awful?
because that shit is not only sexist, it's classist. the assumption that wealthy people are morally better people is patently wrong.
It really does ring faintly of a "poor people are dangerous" kind of note.
Yeah, if anything, I feel like a guy paying $200 for a meal would expect something in return and might get aggressive.
Nah you're missing the point. The problem is that men assault women disproportionately. That's what needs to be called out as sexism, that's what needs addressed, that's what needs to change.
What about women who assault men, are they cool and we don't need to call them out?
I've been raped, groped, and physically assaulted by women a lot more than I have ever been by men. I've never assaulted a woman, but I've met woman who have physically attacked me for not raping them.
from where i stand it's woman on man violence that really needs to be addressed. because it's normalized and male rape victims are mocked and harassed.
it's almost as if shitty people assaulting people isn't a gendered thing. it's a shitty people thing. maybe it's shitty people who need to be called out, not men or women as a whole.
What does buying their dinner have to do with protecting them from being assaulted? If anything the guy paying for everything is going to be more likely to expect something in return.
