This is such bullshit. What happens if she is the one raping? She's excused and guy is still guilty? Moronic.
Your friends make fun of you and tell you to shut up. Ask me how I know.
Or, you bottle it up inside and let it slowly destroy you.
I assume we both know for the same reasons. I'm sorry my dude.
No wonder suicide rates among men are so much higher.
Successful suicide rates are higher, as men tend to use more lethal means (firearms most commonly). Unsuccessful suicide rates among women are higher, as they tend to prefer pills or cutting.
Its the Gender Paradox of Suicide
From what I remember I think globally that’s it is/was closer to (just under) 2:1 on the male v female successful suicides. I also believe that women think about it more and attempt it more often but with less success overall. One giant caveat is that there are many places where “she killed herself” is accepted and never investigated so it’s possible a (large) number of murders are improperly counted as female suicide. (Looking especially at you, “cultures” with “honour” killings)
Jordan, Morocco, Houston PD jail
This is probably beside the point, but is the larger number of attempts by women a result of those attempts usually being unsuccessful? Like is the same woman being counted for 3 different unsuccessful attempts, while a man generally being successful on the first attempt means he's only counted once?
Women have a higher rate of suicidal tendency - depression, malaise, extreme anxiety. This is even outside explicit suicide attempts.
It's a warning not legal advice
If that were the case, different wording would go much further in relaying a message. Something like "Guys, legal system doesn't like you. On average sentences to men are longer to that of a woman. Women don't really need an evidence of rape for you to be sentenced for it and spend decades in jail for crime you didn't do. Child custody is far more frequently awarded to women even if they are the worse choice. Even if you are not the father you might get forced to pay ~~alimony~~ child support until proven otherwise, after which no money will be returned. Masturbate, it's easier and safer." I'd say that's far better warning.
Though replace "alimony" with "child support". Alimony is ex-spouse support and generally involves a longer relationship with the man as the breadwinner.
Which makes it good advice for men, and therefore a useful poster, does it not?
No, because it reinforces the idea that women arent capable of rape like men are. Women rape too, and while it may not be as common it is still just as horrific.
You’re looking back to when society wasn’t “woke” and complaining that you’re not being included?
You dumb incels need to pick a proper lane.
If you think problem doesn't exist if you pretend it doesn't exist then you have developmental issues or are 2 years old.
Do you apply this same logic to slavery and child marriages? “No, you have to look at the context! Owning slaves was legal back then!”
Get the fuck outta here with your bullshit.
