Do men understand rape?

27. heres my response.

It may seem cold, but its harsh reality, how is anyone supposed to help women who are raped if the women themselves wont speak up and report the rape when it happens.

And even though it sounds harsher, I am content with the issues women end up facing when accusing someone of rape, because I subscribe to the notion of our justice system, that it is better for 100 guilty people to go free than one innocent person to be found guilty.


If all we needed for an allegation to be believed was the word of the person alleging such a thing, then we would not have a justice system but a kangaroo court.


So if women want guys like me to understand how bad rape is and how much it occurs, then women themselves need to be the ones that speak up first and deal with all the issues that come with speaking up, because as I said earlier, one cant be helped if they wont start helping themselves.


And yes, I hold prison rape to the same standards.
The only ones I don't hold to the same standards are children that are abused, because children are children and don't have the mental capacity of an adult to know that they cant be helped if they don't speak up.
