(2,670 posts)I mean not all men rape but all men do suffer. When I as a man who doesn't rape goes out to a bar for example and I see a female I would like to get to know better if I start to approach her. What goes through her head is oh no this guy is coming up could he be a rapist could he be out to hurt me so she defensive already. Or if a female breaks down on the side of the road I stop to help again she has to size me up and my intentions regardless of what's in my heart or mind she has to think her safety first and foremost. Those are examples of rape culture not all men rape all men suffer from them. So instead of saying well females need to learn to not be raped would it jot be easier to just tell men don't rape and teach men to police each other. Stop relying on Sex to define masculinity and power. I say these as a male who is just fine with the onus being on us since a majority of rape is committed by males.
