Yea, I agree. But then I feel the term is overused in general.

I feel like those people are guilty of over-romantizing actual relationships, because the truth of the matter is that even perfectly healthy and consensual real-life relationships can have some elements that could be called "questionable" under the ridiculously rigid standards those people set.

Text: I think the term "rape culture" gets thrown around too much now. If you try to ship a pairing where the guy has even a little bit of a dark side and there's some conflict in the relationship, you're accused of promoting it.

The thing is, rape culture is a real thing, and a very useful concept to be able to engage with the world.

Having it ground down to uselessness the way the words "privilege" and "appropriation" have been is PRETTY FUCKING ANNOYING for those of us who are trying to engage with these issues on an adult level.

Agreed.

It's because SJWS have driven those words in the ground. It wasn't too long ago you were always hearing people telling you to check your privilege unironically.

It's not like they've stopped.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-28 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Because it is, in fact, a very useful exercise. I do it all the time for myself.

Oh, I fully agree. I do the same thing. My point was more that someone's been living under a rock if they think people have stopped asking that question. :P

I just read an essay that was really good mostly, about how boys are actively discouraged to read books about girls. This is true, and it's a big problem, but the essay makes a brief claim that it "directly" contributes to rape culture. Because [deeeep breath] if boys are taught they can't relate to girls, they're being taught that girls' feelings don't matter, which means it's okay to do whatever they want to girls, like for example, rape them.

That is not a direct contribution. It's a vague connection. You cannot look at a man who raped a woman and say "Oh yes, well, his parents never read him books about girls, this definitely has something to do with him becoming a rapist."

I read that same thing and thought that point was stretching it too. Itvreally didn't connect to anything else. And the author made good points until that part too. :(

I'm so glad we have you, anon, to tell everyone how Real Adults™ of the internet how to use those words.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-28 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
I'm so glad that you're only able to engage in condescension instead of having a Real Discussion™

(Anonymous) 2015-02-28 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
No, you have real writing to tell you how to use them. Read, dummy.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-28 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-28 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
No, you don't.

This is just facile wankbait.

Someone wasn't a member of the True Blood fandom, I see.

It seems to happen a lot on tumblr, so I can see where they're coming from.

I've been informed that fapping to noncon fic that's brutally up-front about how awful it is "contributes directly to rape culture." Stop having rape fantasies, ladies, because somewhere out there a rapist might see you eroticizing sexual assault and take it as permission because "women secretly want to be raped," and it will be all your fault.

Funny how any time a woman does something that a rapist can twist into "permission," you get a contingent of people yelling that she's the one responsible for his actions. Even when it's only a hypothetical rapist, people are so very very concerned that you not do anything that might encourage him. It's... it's almost like we live in a culture that hands us all sorts of scripts for how to police women's sexuality and blame the existence of rape on their failure to live up to some bullshit purity ideal. Man, if only we had a term for that.
