I might want to have sex with you.I realize this is a sensitive topic, so I felt the need to register to hopefully calm your fears a little.
While it's true that there is indeed a finite amount of bacon, this amount is not static. If you lead a successful campaign on the imperative need of bringing home the bacon, this would cause a positive shift in the demand for bacon.
Consequently, all else equal, the quantity produced would increase, leading to more bacon. Which is obviously a good thing.

a few publicized cases don't mean the bias against women (or towards rich heterosexual white men specifically) has come to a halt.Is it? Seems to be a lot more easier recently.
You have to appease my Thom Yorke worshiping ways.Sounds kinky....how do I get in on that action?
Please, with your opinion? It's of no consequence at all.
Rain down. Come on, rain down on me. From a great height...Please, with your opinion? It's of no consequence at all.
As long as it's consensual I don't mind.I might want to have sex with you.
I am a creep.You have to appease my Thom Yorke worshiping ways.
A Radiohead referencing username is enough to let you get away with anything, in my book.
(wt.) Well, I'm surrounded of them. Not that this would be a bad thing.a few publicized cases don't mean the bias against women (or towards rich heterosexual white men specifically) has come to a halt.
This is coincidental.(wt.) Well, I'm surrounded of them. Not that this would be a bad thing.
I'm so going to pork you. Will you streak for me first?As long as it's consensual I don't mind.
I smoke weed, btw.This is coincidental.
Same. You're alright.I smoke weed, btw.
That's it, Sir. I'm leaving. The crackle of pig skin...I'm so going to pork you. Will you streak for me first?
Don't be so rash....er.That's it, Sir. I'm leaving. The crackle of pig skin...
Don't be so rash....er.
I used to be terrible at sexual, bacon related puns, but hopefully I'm cured.I'm so going to pork you. Will you streak for me first?
Nope.I used to be terrible at sexual, bacon related puns, but hopefully I'm cured.
It desensitizes people to the negative connotations of the word. But to imply a correlation between being desensitized to the word and being desensitized to the thought/act of rape is probably of the the most stupid things I've ever heard.I don't recall anyone advancing the argument that it has any effect on rape stats. But there is a decent argument that its flagrant use may desensitize people (particularly the core demographic of young males who commit rapes) to the act itself.
I'm guessing you bear witness to things that are 'probably one of the most stupid things you've ever heard' on a quite regular basis.It desensitizes people to the negative connotations of the word.

Too bad I can't "like" that. (anything.)How dare men/white people/rich people/"cis" people be concerned about issues impacting them.
On the internet every day provides something that reaches new heights!I'm guessing you bear witness to things that are 'probably one of the most stupid things you've ever heard' on a quite regular basis.
Not at all.I'm picking up vibes that you don't like using that term. Good for you, don't use it then.
Nothing to enlighten. If you don't like the term, don't use it. If you do, use it when you want.Not at all.
Infact please enlighten us about the other situations definitely warrants the term raped.
This may the breakthrough we've been looking for.Nothing to enlighten. If you don't like the term, don't use it. If you do, use it when you want.
It probably wouldn't ever be the case with people (kids) who have been properly raised and educated. Not everyone is properly raised and educated, though. And there's a side to this which is usually downplayed in these debates. It's a fact (a perfectly objective fact) that many rape victims still - in this day and age, even in so-called progressive socities - hesitate to report what has happened to them because they're worried about not being taken seriously. And the number of cases which are never properly investigated seem to justify their worries.It's an hyperbole, but I think DouLou is bang on. Why would that ever be the case?
Do you not think men have rights?

Have you ever looked in to the MRA movement? It's ridiculous.Do you not think men have rights?
It's the loons on both sides who dominate debate on the interwebs, and the rational moderate majority are relegated to the sidelines. There is an awesome cartoon floating out there that illustrates the point, but I can't find it. The vast majority of feminists are cool.Have you ever looked in to the MRA movement? It's ridiculous.
I'm someone who regularly moans at fellow feminists, who fail to remember that men are a crucial part of the goal, but MRA is a joke.
I'm not familiar with the MRA movement, but it seems reasonable that if there is a movement for the rights of women, there should be a similar movement for the rights of men - opposition is the basis of democracy. However I think that at this day and age both feminism and MRA are outdated - there should be only one movement for equality, which doesn't distinguish between genders.Have you ever looked in to the MRA movement?

There is. It's just misleadingly titled feminism because it started in the days that the main issue at hand was establishing that women were people. Any decent feminist will fight fervently for men's rights, when such is called for. Paternity leave is a good example where progress has been made, of late.I'm not familiar with the MRA movement, but it seems reasonable that if there is a movement for the rights of women, there should be a similar movement for the rights of men - opposition is the basis of democracy.

If that is the case, than maybe feminism should be rebranded in order to disassociate itself from the minority of crazy "feminists". I've read some pretty appalling stuff written by those so called feminists, for example calling for mandatory castration of males and other stupid stuff like that...There is.

The only people who seriously think feminism is anti-male are either misogynists or a bit dim. Thinking feminism is about people who want to castrate males is like thinking Islam is about people wanting to fly planes in to buildings. In either case, they aren't going to be turned in to useful promoters of gender equality by a new term for it.If that is the case, than maybe feminism should be rebranded in order to disassociate itself from the minority of crazy "feminists".
