Cabbage 3 Posted August 28, 2013 Seriously deep shit, this is pushing Andrew's podcast persona in new and interesting directions. That faux "hello" at the beginning is foreshadowing, maybe he'll have an existential crisis. Share this post Link to post
wakefresh 689 Posted August 28, 2013 I think that the circumstances around how an issue is brought up will definitely frame the discussion around that issue. Because if you only bring up the idea of rape culture but only in the context of "those people", then you aren't helping anything at all because it will not lead to any sort of self-reflection on the rape culture operating here, right now. Hell, because in many ways, the legal system in this country sanctions sexual violence against women. Share this post Link to post
action52 554 Posted August 30, 2013 That link is one of the most depressing things I have seen in a long time. As terrible as I think rape culture and the legal system are, they still manage to sink to new lows. Share this post Link to post

They link stories like that ALL. THE. TIME. Share this post Link to post
