"Okay, so here's why girls don't get flattered when guys comment on their bodies." So you’re tired of hearing about “rape culture”? The following includes descriptions, photos, and video that may serve as a trigger for victims of sexual violence.
Please be advised. Someone asked me today, “What is ‘rape culture’ anyway? I’m tired of hearing about it.” Yeah, I hear ya. I’m tired of talking about it. Rape culture is when a group of athletes rape a young girl, and though there are dozens of witnesses, no one says, “Stop.” Rape culture is when a group of athletes rape a young girl, and though there are dozens of witnesses, they can’t get anyone to come forward. Rape culture is when a group of athletes rape a young girl, and adults are informed of it, but no consequences are doled out because the boys “said nothing happened.” Rape culture is when a group of athletes rape a young girl, and we later find out that their coaches were “joking about it” and “took care of it.”

When girls have a close relationship with their father, it can help promote successful relationships as adults, says Mramor. Fathers naturally pay a different kind of attention to their daughters, she adds, such as engaging in more physical activities together. Ask your child’s father (or, if there’s no father in the picture, another trusted man in your daughter’s life, such as your father, brother or a good friend) to take her along on an errand, or do chores with her, like raking leaves or fixing the car.
“Men are more likely to talk with children while doing other activities, rather than have face-to-face chats,” says Mramor. Remember, too, that daughters are watching how their fathers treat the women in their lives, from his mother to his work colleagues. Yashar Ali: A Message to Women From a Man: You Are Not "Crazy" You're so sensitive.
You're so emotional. You're defensive. You're overreacting. Calm down. Relax. Sound familiar? If you're a woman, it probably does. Do you ever hear any of these comments from your spouse, partner, boss, friends, colleagues, or relatives after you have expressed frustration, sadness, or anger about something they have done or said? When someone says these things to you, it's not an example of inconsiderate behavior. And this is the sort of emotional manipulation that feeds an epidemic in our country, an epidemic that defines women as crazy, irrational, overly sensitive, unhinged. I think it's time to separate inconsiderate behavior from emotional manipulation, and we need to use a word not found in our normal vocabulary.

Send this to any woman you know that may need to be reminded that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it and it’s better safe than sorry. The media's manipulative influence over your morals.
