For me, it's not that I necessarily expect terrible things to happen when I'm just going about my usual routine. But I place limitations on myself constantly, often without even realizing that I'm doing it.

As one example: a male friend told me that on one warm summer night he decided to sleep on the public beach, and I was shocked that that was something a person could just do. And then five seconds later it clicked why he was comfortable making that choice, while I wouldn't even dream of it. Most likely I'd be perfectly safe if I slept on the beach, but if I were raped in those circumstances, 90+% of people would say it was my fault for putting myself in that situation in the first place.

This. But try telling that to anon above who no doubt thinks your male friend would have equally been at risk.

I think I'm the above anon you're talking about (the one who said that male rape victims are mocked and disbelieved, right?) and honestly your disregard for male victims is just disgusting. Right now YOU'RE making them the butt of jokes by acting like so much as mentioning them is a punchline.

You realize if the male friend were raped (which ayrt doesn't suggest would be any less impossible), chances are 90+% likely he wouldn't even feel able to speak up about it due to not being believed or outright mocked for it. Largely because of attitudes like yours.

But that isn't a societal problem like the abuse female survivors face.

The reason that just isn't even an issue to be discussed here is because that mockery is not gender based. It's men doing it to other men. Where as the disbelief and abuse female survivors face is from men and the society they built and run, it's an extention of men attacking women, which I think we can all agree is a societal problem. Thats why a woman being mocked and disbelieved is a problem and attitudes like AYRT is not the same thing.

You realize that by saying that men built and run society you're saying that women had and continue to have no part in that, right?

Though you seem to live in a completely different society, one where only men both rape and find rape to be something to be ignored or laughed at. And that's sure not the society I live in. You think women aren't disbelieved and abused by other women? You think men aren't mocked by women? You're right that it isn't gender based--but then you go on to gender it!

What the heck does AYRT mean and why do you keep calling me that?

AYRT = anon you replied to. they're not calling you that, they're using it to clarify who they're talking about

He would have been equally at risk - which is to say, not at a very great risk, because the big bad rapist stranger is largely a myth - the vast majority of rape victims don't just get raped by a random guy but by people they know.
