All discussions of sexual assault and rape are gender based. That is highlighted in many posts in this thread.

Well, duh. You've jumpd the shark if you think any of what's being discussed here is applicable to an Afghanistan or a Rwanda.

When you say men don't get lectures about violent victimization risk reduction, can you be specific on what you mean by violent victimization?

Are you dumb enough to think that "millions of people around the world" does not include millions of people in the USA?

Get your head out of your ass.

No, but I can go back to typing about a general topic rather than responding to honorgal.

And there are women and men who are silent because being vocal or making gestures of disapproval could result in a much more painful experience.

This is a flashback to rape accusations being dismissed if the woman (or man) alleged victim orgasms.

. Undoubtably, there are. But you are not going to be able to change that by redefining and branding the vast majority of sexual encounters in healthy relationships as rape.

That is not what is happening. Don't worry. People whose consensual sexual encounters involve silent consent will not be prevented from getting their rocks off.

THIS! And what I am hoping to see from the GLOs for men. With no ifs, ands or buts or hairsplitting.

"
I wish I was writing the article, "Meet the College Fraternity Brothers Who Are Starting a Revolution Against Campus Sexual Assault," but that would mean that fraternities would have to quickly usher themselves into the 21st century. All it takes is a few inspired, outspoken individuals to start a movement against sexual violence, as victims of sexual violence have shown. It is time for fraternity brothers to join them, to use their strength and numbers to speak out against rape culture and work to change it. "
