Being female in public is a crime

Theres a link to the page i quoted.

It is not my intent that the law should be changed, only that It doesnt seem to be imagined that a man could be capable of feeling as violated as a female rape victim, further reinforcing (by inference that men are stronger emotionally) the view that females are weak.

Look at it this way, why should anyone respect the word rape if the lawmakers cant even get it right? Yes, throwout the word, and replace it with something like, "unlawful sexual interaction between a man and a nonconsenting female".

It should be (or rather rape should mean): "unlawful sexual interaction between 2 or more human beings where at least 1 sexual organ is involved and at least 1 party nonconsenting"

If so, yes it's a quirk of law that it is male-centric although I, personally, do not have a massive issue with this - however, I do agree that women *can* commit rape but would, obviously, have to use something else other than a penis and this is where the wording of the law needs to be changed for clarity.

Actually this is not my feeling, but rather that a man should be able to be a rape victim in law for example by the situation from the example above.

A sexual organ doesn't have to be involved for rape, it's basically violation of your body against your will.

I know rape against males exists but I suspect the reason it isn't taken as seriously is that for a guy to get wood it's presumed he is enjoying the experience at some level. If he suffers form penetration of (either another males penis or a male/female using a sex toy or object) then yeah I'd say that's the same form of rape as women suffer.

But to put things into perspective how often do you think a man can be subdued by a woman like that? I'm sorry but we really are the weaker sex, we can't physically stop a guy raping us (without a gun or blade, but then we'd get locked up for murder oh lol the irony), nor can we usually dominate a man against his will and rape him.

Yes rape exists on both genders but you're wrong if you think it's a level playing field.

If women wish to be equal to men in society then the crime and punishment should be as equal as possible for both.

You can't have "women are the weaker sex so they get extras here" and then turn around and claim women can do the same things as men so deserve to be treated equally. Not that I'm saying you personally are saying these things, it's a general peeve of mine about women's attitudes in general.

I wholeheartedly agree with Mk1 about the law needing to be changed to suit modern times.

The thing is, they haven't even got the law right for rape against women yet..! It should be by standard a lengthier sentence. And yes it should apply to male or female.

Also, where do we get extras? Last time I checked we still get on average lower salaries, with a higher c.o.l. And to top it all yes we are comparatively weak and feeble, I can accept that, dunno why some girls can't.

Dont call at me for for living under a rock, but why is the cost of living higher for women?

From what I can see here it's basically because they're fussy

Tampax are a better example since they're quite mandatory, £30 a year or so (which is taxed, cos they're luxury items!).

There is of course makeup and clothing, but you could argue those aren't essentials. Most women do "feel" that they are essential though, because the society we live in deems that the women make themselves all pretty. Our shoes cost more for some obscure reason. So do female professional items like suits (as they are considered rarer).

All in all it's generally more expensive to be a woman, either thanks to mother nature, or to the pressures of modern society*.

*Metrosexuals have the same issue, though I'd hazzard a guess that hair gel and male makeup isn't as pricey as the female counterparts.

Hoy,

Tampax are [...] taxed, cos they're luxury items!

Wait, what?!

How stupid can these law-makers get, tbh...

Cheers,

Bleed on the floor

p.s. We don't really have much say in it happening, whereas if you mean what I think you mean, it is entirely controlled by you.
