And I'm pretty sure the leprechaun anti-defamation league will be on my case at some point...so perhaps I just have a guilty conscience. ;) In any case, *really glad* you don't secretly hate me!

No no, I definitely wasn't trying to publicly shame you - of all people - and I feel bad that you thought that! Really - it's no one that would regularly come here, I just look around at a lot of blogs and these were a few instances I've noticed over time. I guess it's kind of a bad idea for me to make references to things people have written but then not saying who or where it was. Don't think that I'm secretly hating any of you!<BR/>Now c'mere and gimme a hug!Nervoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02281704723002922536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-1143769578165755452006-03-30T20:46:00.000-05:002006-03-30T20:46:00.000-05:00You've given me a lot to think about.

I tend to push the envelope with my posts, sometimes as a critique (the St. Paddy's Day post was all about making fun of the "Fuck Me I'm Irish" sentiment) and sometimes, I'll admit, just to push the boundaries of good taste. It's ALWAYS about making fun of myself, however, at least that's my intent, and I honestly hadn't thought about the effect my language might have on survivors--with whom, I should say, I am in total feminist solidarity. I also find the notion that anyone asks for rape appalling. Anyway, I'm not even sure if my blog is one of the ones you're ranting about, but I'll think about what you said, and thanks for this post.Feral Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08456760046606299779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-1143749783901180062006-03-30T15:16:00.000-05:002006-03-30T15:16:00.000-05:00well youre right! id rather be murdered than rape...well youre right! id rather be murdered than raped any day. its more than irresponsible to society and to themselves when someone, male or female, glorifies such acts. the only thing we can do is be better than they, and rant when we cant take it anymore...<BR/><BR/>love ya girlBlushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04359961340829193889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-1143742846460346522006-03-30T13:20:00.000-05:002006-03-30T13:20:00.000-05:00And you know, I'm not trying to be small-minded ag...And you know, I'm not trying to be small-minded against what might actually be a fantasy to someone. I <I>think</I> that when some women say they fantasize about rape, my guess is it's more of a thing where they are separating themselves from the act because they were brought up to feel that sex is shameful or wrong - as in, by saying rape they moreso mean they didn't cause it to happen, it wasn't their choice or idea, therefore don't have to feel ashamed for "wanting" it. (I may be totally wrong, I'm obviously not a psychologist.) I don't mean that if someone is into BDSM play that they mean to promote abuse and rape in real life. <BR/>It's more that I'm given the feeling that a lot of women (some that I've known and have heard their opinions) have the idea that rape is all about "oh, you know how the men get horny and can't help themselves, and she <I>was</I> wearing a short skirt, and if it was so bad she would've fought harder" and pass it off like it's just part of nature and that most likely the woman brought it upon herself. Or that a woman who talks about her experience with rape, abuse, incest, etc. is one to be laughed at. That's the attitude that I don't like. <BR/><BR/>Sorry to be a party pooper, everybody. I do appreciate that you're reading and responding.Nervoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02281704723002922536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-1143739509174049362006-03-30T12:25:00.000-05:002006-03-30T12:25:00.000-05:00I think people brush off rape because of the fanta...I think people brush off rape because of the fantasies and shit, but I promise you that nobody really wants to be raped.
