Annoying Mfs

sorry if this is a rlly rlly dumb question but i’ve heard a lot of ppl talk about men who were falsely accused of rape getting their lives ruined by the accusations, and i wanted to know your thoughts on this.

I’m here to take all questions, as long as the person who asks them is willing to listen and learn. So I hope you listen closely.

The most commonly cited figure says that 5% of rape allegations are false. This figure comes on studies done on college students, of which it is reported roughly 90% do not report their assault to the police. So, if we take the number of rapes that occur and the number of false accusations, that means false accusations occur at a rate closer to around .005%.

So then we must ask, what makes a rape allegation deemed ‘false’? The classic example in popular media is “young girl regrets sex, claims rape”. However, we’ve found in research that simply isn’t the case. What’s more common is a teen girls parent finds out she’s sexually active and files a rape claim, that qualifies as a false claim. Also common is grown adults caught cheating, rape claim filled, often then redacted when the truth comes forward. That counts as a false claim. You know what counts for the majority, though? Let me give you an example. In one case, the police determined that a rape had to be a false claim because people had seen the accuser let her eventual rapist help her take her ski boots off. This classified her claim as a false one. The police saying your claim is false gets it classified in those same fake rape accusation statistics.

So how many false rape claims lead to convictions? A study found that of 216 complaints later classified as false, only 6 led to arrest, and of those 6, only two faced charges. And then those charges were overturned. There is simply no evidence to support the idea that false rape accusations routinely result in serious consequences.

So then how do false rape reports compare to false reports of other crimes? Let’s run some numbers. Over a 25 year period, 52 convictions were overturned due to false rape claims. In that same 25 year period, 790 convictions were overturned due to false murder claims. So that means you’re about 15 times likelier to be falsely convicted of murder than of rape.

So in conclusion, false rape claims aren’t this massive issue people pretend they are. Additionally, if a man you know is acting very concerned that he’s going to get falsely accused of rape, you probably want to avoid being alone with him…these men don’t fear lies, they fear the truth of their actions. They fear accountability.

my god, such a powerful video. I need every woman to watch this and understand how we need to be operating in our day to day lives, especially now

simply ALLOWING yourself to be ugly, considering friendship and family as an end goal and realising you can live your dream life without a man

Knowing that the end goal is not marriage is not getting the guy

Can we go back to flip phones and blackberries?

“you just haven’t sound the right man yet!” “hate the sin, love the sinner” “it’s unnatural” “it’s just a phase” “queer” “examine your bias” “genital preference” “non men attracted to non men” “same gender attraction”

“Thin brows are back in” “skinny jeans are back” “wolfcuts are out” “this style of eyeshadow is soo trendy right now” “big asses are out, slim figures are in”

Hey do you guys ever make your own decisions or form your own ideas on how you would personally like to look that’s not based around what’s currently being sold to you. Is that not possible

Feminism has become far too watered down. It’s purpose has been shifted, it’s focus moved . Feminism is now about “equality” when the purpose was always meant to be advancement and rights for WOMEN. The kind of weak feminism that caters to men is not real feminism, but something else entirely. The cause of giving women rights must focus on women. Real feminism ALWAYS puts WOMEN FIRST. It doesn’t allow the exploitation and commodification of women for men’s pleasure, pander to men who invade women’s spaces, or justify oppression of and violence towards women by men.

If you support porn and "sex work"- the sale of women’s bodies and the exploitation of vulnerable women- you are not a feminist.

If you believe that not wearing makeup and skirts makes you not a woman, or that a man wearing makeup and skirts makes him a woman, or in general that gender presentation= gender, you are not a feminist.

If you think men or "non-women" can be lesbians, you are not a feminist.

If you think it is empowering to make yourself into a sexual object for men, or to let men use you sexually without insisting they put your pleasure first, you are not a feminist.

If you believe that oppression-based gender roles and religious codes can be a "choice" and empowering, you are not a feminist.

If you continually adjust your language to erase women, and refuse to acknowledge that it is women who birth and menstruate, you are not a feminist.

If you use misogynistic slurs like "b*ch" "sl*t" and "h*", you are not a feminist.

If your feminism does not believe in putting women first in the cause, you are not a feminist.

Shut it down.
