    I’m not trying to say women are completely responsible. Father’s have just as much, if not more, sway in their sons. My point is don’t add fuel to the fire.

    You have only commented about women and mothers here. If you don’t want people to take your comments at face value about that, then you should be sure to include what fathers and men can do to help prevent rape as well.

      That’s completely fair and I noticed it myself which is why I brought up fathers. It’s not just mothers it’s fathers, brothers, cousins, friends. But when all the men in your life say “women ain’t shit” and then all the women in your life say “men ain’t shit” more than likely they’re gonna end up siding with they’re gender.

      I hope you understand I’m not trying to argue in bad faith. I’m just trying to let my personal experience be shown and trying to explain that going too far in one direction causes the opposite intended effect

        Who is predated upon the most by the other group?

          Again fair, but my point still stands. Don’t project that onto your kids. Don’t treat your sons like rapists and don’t treat your daughters like whores.

          Teach your kids right from wrong without pitting them against a whole gender. If you bring gender into it you’re part of the problem

            Pretending like the genders all face the same issues is being willfully obtuse.
