Yep, according to the Church, it is the woman's fault when a man can't control himself, and I can tell you as a Latina (though not a Mexican) that this is a widely held belief in Latin America, even among women.<br /><br />http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26295141/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719317745802879347.post-85611768539796062032010-07-12T10:54:22.515-04:002010-07-12T10:54:22.515-04:00Thanks for writing this!

The other day my roommate was lamenting some policy changes at a local music festival that she said occurred "because a bunch of women were too stupid to watch their drinks and got raped." Just goes to show feminists really need to keep talking about this and saying it's unacceptable.Jarrahhttp://gender-focus.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719317745802879347.post-20812263305979739932010-07-11T18:53:30.073-04:002010-07-11T18:53:30.073-04:00A turd by any other name is still a turd...A turd by any other name is still a turd...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719317745802879347.post-23886875028150451222010-07-11T17:29:34.950-04:002010-07-11T17:29:34.950-04:00"why is rape the only crime where the victim ..."why is rape the only crime where the victim is questioned/villianized?"<br /><br /><br />Because culture dictates that women (the typical victims of rape) are responsible for the sexual behavior of men.Buffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09328034026300036704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719317745802879347.post-82398860079385841132010-07-11T17:21:16.084-04:002010-07-11T17:21:16.084-04:00I'm so glad you not just blog about this but f...I'm so glad you not just blog about this but found this ad from the UK. Can we play this in the States? of course not, that one trojan ad where men are pictured as pigs until the one goes to get a condom - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6krr40mdHM - was "too much" for US. I saw it on tv possibly once. <br />Simple & straight to the point ads like this are needed. And this is coming from a lesbian :)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12340000753419776769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719317745802879347.post-6794088093416495062010-07-11T16:47:47.713-04:002010-07-11T16:47:47.713-04:00Thank you for the great post!

That is absolutely unacceptable.Jessica Sidewayshttp://jessicasideways.com/noreply@blogger.com
