It's nice to know you learned something from this thread- your insulting demeanor and this emphatic statement:
"You aren't going to reduce rape by trying to educate a rapist any more than you are going to reduce murder by educating murderers or reduce theft by educating thieves. "
Made me believe you were a lost cause. If you hadn't included demeaning analysis of my temperament as you did, I wouldn't have written you off so easily. But you talked down to me, and I wasn't about to treat you with respect you did not earn by insulting me like that. You get what you give.
It's terrific you could be disabused of this notion. Too many guys here actually think this means we want to send every man to reeducation camp. Where these paranoid fantasies come from is beyond me. #1 paranoid fantasy- we think every man is a rapist or rape enabler, and we need to apologize for this. Crazy shit- not even worth addressing again..but this is what's passing for critical thinking around here.
