    You don't understand much about men for someone who likes to talk about their faults constantly. You said you were assaulted, fine. A guy would go tell his friends how awesome it was when this cute girl on the bus grabbed his junk.

    I just wish you weren't so miserable. It is sad that our society has kept you feeling so insecure all of these years. You really think you can't go watch a game at a bar by yourself? Sad.

    I don't really care about gay kids and male teachers, hadn't really thought about it and will try not to ever think about it again.

    Just for clarification, I wasn't talking about legality in any way. I'm talking about logic. Try this......

    If a drunk teenager is street racing and crashes and kills a pedestrian who just happened to be standing there is it worse than if he crashed and killed a drunk friend who was riding with him and egging him on?

    Knowing you, you'll say it is the same thing. Logically he may deserve the same sentence but in NO way is it the same exact crime. NUANCE, look it up. Although I'd say your point about a young 5 year old vs a young couple a few years apart is heading in the right direction.

    I get what you're saying, but it's still stereotypical thinking. The white kid from Appalachia doesn't have the same "privilege" as a white kid from a more affluent area of the country. There are plenty of country clubs where white riffraff like me would have trouble getting membership. Old money looks down on new money. Doctors and lawyers get more social perks because of their career status.

    For some reason, there's a need in certain precincts to label every social phenomenon. White privilege seems to be the label that's being pushed right now. I don't like it because it's not really accurate to say all whites have privilege, and because it becomes an easy shorthand description for complex problems. It's often said with a sneer (check your white privilege) in a way that plays on divides instead of working towards unity. What this country needs desperately is a great leader than can help move us towards unity instead of divisiveness. Those kinds of leaders seem to be in short supply.

    You make fucking valid points. I've been to my fair share of OSU parties and this shit happens all the fucking time.

    This is why I said earlier in the thread that we'll never know the 100% truth of what went down, because the girl is never going to know what she said to the dude when they were flirting with each other before the incident. She could have very well told him she wanted to get it on. Stupid shit gets done when people get that drunk.

    Again, not defending the guy, just coming at this from a different perspective.

    What a load of shit. You are not my fucking shrink. I don't have a damn stupid shrink. Because I am not miserable. Just a realist. Reality a lot of men are assholes and some of them post on S2.

    You managed to put in crap and not answer the questions. If it's OK for attractive female teachers to tag team a straight boy, why is it not OK if they are plain? Is it OK if they are two cute gay teachers tag teaming a gay boy? Your criteria for ethics, if not legality, is whether you consider the female in question cute? And you call me miserable? You must live a very miserable life. I mean, most people are average looking. So I guess everything they do is bad! Yeah, my saying that makes about as much sense as your nonsense.

    So, bodyman, you're in a public place. A woman approaches from your blind side so you don't see her. She grabs your crotch, hard and painfully, and with her fingers digging HARD AS SHE CAN into your balls, tells, not you, but passing women she's going to fuck you. And they all snicker and roll their eyes and assess whether or not YOU, not the assailant, is "hot". And you say it's groovy as long as she's attractive? You are so fucking focused on "cute" and "hot". Did you read this woman's letter? I bet you didn't. Should she have enjoyed the rape because the guy was cute?

    As to your drunk example, yes I think they are the same thing. A drunk driver kills someone. The person is dead. The person would not be dead if the moron had not driven drunk.

    Are you saying the rape victim was "egging on" the rapist? Is that your point? Because I sure can't figure it out from that "clarification".

    I think a lot of guys here are trying to make me say that women consent and ex post facto say they did not so therefore rape does not happen? By using my own examples? There is a world of difference between "I consented, I wish on sober reflection I had not consented, it was dumb of me to consent" and "I did not consent" and "I was unconscious and could not consent". I guess too subtle for MRAs.

    I wasn't talking about this case. I didn't read her letter BECAUSE I DON'T CARE.

    And if you do have a damn shrink evidence suggests he sure as shit is stupid. You don't understand a word of what I wrote and that's fine. I'm typing in the middle of work while I have a minute. I sometimes have to come back and finish it.

    And yes, you would think the drunk driver I made up would be just as guilty in either case. I knew you would.

    A pedestrian can't control cars around him at all times. A drunk moron riding shotgun sure as shit could have controlled what his exposure to this would be.

    If I'm flying over a mountain in a passenger jet and it explodes and I hit the mountain and go splat and die that isn't the same thing as those morons dying on Everest every year. The end result is the same, I died on a mountain.

    In your rainbow and fairytale "reality" both deserve the same sympathy.

    You get so mad I can feel the misery through my phone. I'm laughing at you, yet I feel bad for you at the same time. It is kinda weird really.

    This is absurd! Never seen a woman this dumb but if one were to be so stupid, her arm would be dangling loose in the shoulder socket long before any snickers could be heard! Cute, plain or butt ugly.

    dviss started this thread about a man who got a tap on the wrist after raping a woman due to his privilege. You admit you don't care. So why the fuck are you posting on the thread if you don't care about the subject matter?

    Ah, yes, a shrink is by definition a "he". Your sexism is showing (big shock I know).

    To get back to the ACTUAL subject, which is not you, bodyman, or anyone else who tries to make this about them. Vice President Biden wrote a heartfelt letter to this woman. I have to admit he's learned a lot since his days as Senate Judiciary Committee chair. You can read it here: https://www.buzzfeed.com/tomnamako/...ord-survivor?utm_term=.kmVmrbNPOo#.cdBY7r0xqB

    Buzzfeed still refers to the rapist as "the champion swimmer who was convicted of three counts of sexual assault". No. He is the rapist who used to be a swimmer. Champion he's not.

    A couple of corrections

    dviss started this thread about a man who got a tap on the wrist due to his white privilege, not his privilege

    The asshole who sexually assaulted this poor girl is still a championship swimmer, just like OJ is still the Heisman trophy winner. His, and whoevers actions now don't take away anything they may have achieved in the past. Pete Rose is still the hit champion, even though he is banned from baseball.

    Oh shit, having learned to always default to HE when I don't know the sex of an imaginary person when I was in elementary school makes me sexist.

    I don't call anyone retarded to their face anymore because I understand that it is offensive. I still think your posts are retarded, I just try not to say it. Not saying something and not thinking it are two entirely different things.

    2 more things....

    I've already acknowledged by belief in the obvious white privilege situation. I have it, I benefit from it and I don't think it is fair. End of that story.

    Secondly, you brought up how you were assaulted and immediately assumed sexist old jerkface men would make a big deal about it. I'm sure I wouldn't find the woman who did it attractive, but I wouldn't have said shit if you didn't make a big deal out of your inability to understand mean old men.

    Oh crandc, I forgot to mention how you always miss the intended insult to look at the unintended sexism you grab out of thin air.

    If you read my quote about your shrink, I said he...I mean uhhh, your shrink must be stupid because he isn't helping you. Oops, wrote he again unintentionally. Sooooo sexist.

    It's kinda stupid that someone would actually call another person out on this. It's like grammar police on the internet.... just dumb.

    Most men default to using "he", while most women default to "she". It's because you naturally fall back to what gender you are. The rest use "they" or "He/She" or "She/He" because people get butt-hurt... To call someone out on that? Just dumb. Looking to start a fight for no reason.

    "Hey guys" when referring to a group of people.

    My womans studies class in college told me how sexist that is. Give me a break
    Thats the definition of getting triggered just to get triggered.

    In that same class they told me women should have the right to abort a baby at 6 months after a doctor found out the baby would likely be handicapped because it would be too hard for them to raise a handicapped kid.

    Ironic.

    Psychology of Gender Differences was probably my favorite class of all time. It was all sorority girls, like 5 bros in the class and the teacher was hot and in her early to mid 20s I think. Some girl tried to do some feminist style joke in class and she just got crickets. The subject matter was easy too, just all "common sense" before it got infected with feminist bullshit.

    Senior year, man. Senior year.

    That we know about publicly.

    Bill Cosby wasn't considered a "rapist" to the masses until recently. Doesn't mean he wasn't one.

    Well except Brock was initially charged with rape but that was dropped as far as i can tell.

    Due diligence was performed. In this situation and in this case he is not a rapist.
