    Do you think it’s purely just sexism, or do you think it maybe has something to do with the strategy women must employ to protect themselves from being assaulted by strangers?

        No, not never, but a monetary barrier probably does filter out some bad actors. Not all of course, and it probably filters out some good actors too unfortunately. But with the amount of assaults women are faced with, I understand why they feel the need to be somewhat choosy.

          the reason they are choosey is they like rich men and want money.

          the worst thing i man can be to a woman is poor. being rich will excuse a lot other factors, including assault. i’ve literally dated women who admitted they were raped by men but it wasn’t so bad because he was rich. more than one, in fact. one of them literally told me about her sexual assault, but then was like ‘oh but he had the most comfortable luxurious bedsheets and he said they cost $500’.

          least to say i stopped seeing those women immediately after they admitted that. apparently rape isn’t so bad if a rich guy is doing it to you. it’s only bad if the guy isn’t rich.

          a lot of women have a completely messed up psychology about money and sex.

      how does expecting a guy to buy you a $200 dinner prevent him from assaulting you?

      or are you saying if a guy can only buy you a $20 drink, or doesn’t buy you a drink, he’s dangerous and awful?

      because that shit is not only sexist, it’s classist. the assumption that wealthy people are morally better people is patently wrong.

        Nah you’re missing the point. The problem is that men assault women disproportionately. That’s what needs to be called out as sexism, that’s what needs addressed, that’s what needs to change.

          What about women who assault men, are they cool and we don’t need to call them out?

          I’ve been raped, groped, and physically assaulted by women a lot more than I have ever been by men. I’ve never assaulted a woman, but I’ve met woman who have physically attacked me for not raping them.

          from where i stand it’s woman on man violence that really needs to be addressed. because it’s normalized and male rape victims are mocked and harassed.

          it’s almost as if shitty people assaulting people isn’t a gendered thing. it’s a shitty people thing. maybe it’s shitty people who need to be called out, not men or women as a whole.
