33. I read that rape admission thread

that was disgusting and I'd have reported that guy to the police if I knew where he lived.

All those bans were rightfully given, in my opinion. I'll never be caught promoting sexism, defending rape or violence against women. I was raised by women for 11 years of my life exclusively - to even accuse me of misogyny is insulting.

I just want to be able to come to a liberal progressive board - of which I share most of the same political positions - and have conversations with fellow progressives. Not be tarred and feathered every time the topic of rape is brought up.
