By Melinda Tankard Reist, published 28/2/2008Many young women don’t even seem to understand the meaning of sexual harassment: it’s become so normalised they just expect it.

Johny Rotten (and I hope you don't think I'm being abusive by calling you this)
False allegations can be a form of rape. In another forum, there was a self proclaimed feminist who was inferring that divorced fathers drive around in red sports cars with a female blond half their age beside them in the car. Of all the cars I see on the road, I rarely see a red sports car, and never have I seen an older man in a red sports car with a young female blond by their side. There seems to be some allegations that VFL players rape women, so exactly how many VFL players have raped women? Or are these allegations similar to the allegation that divorced fathers drive around in red sports cars with a female blond half their age beside them in the car.

Oh dear it looks like this subject is all the rage at the moment.
Sex is for joy, not for judgment http://www.smh.com.au/news/books/author-on-being-labelled-a-slut/2008/02/29/1204226986795.html?page=fullpage#contentSwap2 Anybody know anything about chemical castration? ""Culturally there is still a fairly narrow set of assumptions about what women should be, and young girls fall into those traps. They think they have choices but they do not realise how limited their choices can be."' Somehow they missed out on mentioning and especially here in OLO that there is a very narrow set of assumptions about men and what they should be like.

HRS: "False allegations can be a form of rape"
Complete, unadulterated crap. Alleging falsely that rape has occurred is reprehensible and illegal, but it's not rape. I see Timkins is maintaining the standards of debate that we know so well from him. Utter garbage. Posted by CJ Morgan, Saturday, 1 March 2008 10:19:13 AM

Just like false attribution of paternity is not paternity.

HRS
Good grief! You certainly know how to twist what is written to suit your own anti-women agenda. Given that HRS is talking about me (re the red car scenario) anyone reading read the article in question ‘A decent proposal’ will see that I was making a humorous response to HRS's satirical marriage proposal post which implied women only marry men for the purposes of fleecing them at some time in the future. Then read my second post on that thread which was obviously ignored by HRS because it might work against his own bitter view of the world. Obviously you think it is perfectly alright for you to slur women and make out they are all money-hungry. Bit hypocritical. You don’t know me from a bar of soap yet you announce that I am a self-proclaimed feminist - please show me the post where I have stated anything like that. What nonsense. I stand for human rights which last time I looked included men, women and children (and animal rights). Posted by pelican, Saturday, 1 March 2008 12:30:46 PM

Just dont tell the insurance company and dont expect sympathy.
And dont be surprised when people roll their eyes at your lack of awarness at your own complicity.
All care and no responsibility doesnt sell well.
By all means, keep going out while leaving the window open and woundering why the house gets burgled.
And shout at, ridicule and insult anyone with the fool hardy courage to point at the smoking gun in the hand of the someone who just shot their foot off. Including, and especially the rapists who seem to enjoy shooting at themselves.
